For example most people won't bad an eyelid if you say for example that Katsu Curry or ramen is Japanese cuisine, Pad Thai is Thai cuisine, or hamburgers are American cuisine. But as a Brit who grew up, for example, eating things like curries and pizzas and pasta and noodles, people online go apeshit (what's new, I guess 😂) when I say or imply that these dishes are clearly a part of British cuisine. That doesn't mean we can't acknowledge where the inspiration for some of these foods came to the UK, but is a nation's "cuisine" not defined as the core things commonly eaten by the average person in that country?

Anyone want to share a mundane achievement you've made recently? submitted by /u/Nonions to r/CasualUK [link] [comments]

We've had a few "big cat" sightings the last few months in the same area; quite a bit of nature. So, all in all, it is not the most peculiar rumour.
