I got to visit pretty much all of the different areas of the city from st paul's to all the way on the outskirts to the colston hall and the main building on the green to the docks etc. It was great. Don't drive in Bristol. Get a long board and fly down Park Street at a billion miles per hour.

Pochoclo posted:The whole bit about dividing foods into bourgie/prole is stupid, methinks. Food is food. Unless we're talking about $1000 bottles of champagne and gold leaf on everything, or stuff like live monkey brains. That's the sort of thing a polenta-eater would say

Food in itself isnt inherently bourgie and I think its a bit silly to deny yourself something you might find amazing because of what other people might think. How people act around food does get really class stratified but that shifts around and its a bit funny to see people talking up polenta as posh when it reminds me of the childhood times where I was eating that or rice/potatoes/lentils/pasta or couscous with something in a tin from kwiksave for weeks on end because things were sometimes pretty tight.

Cookery in the Uk is often surprisingly class-ridden and very much about exclusion: "WE can afford to source and prepare these poncy ingredients, while YOU never will.  "The Guardian's actually a great example of this. There'll be an article entitled something like "6 simple brunches to prepare from scratch" and they'll all be made up of organic platypus testicles and super-rare himalayan orchids and take 5 hours to make. "Personally, I find that the very best unpasteurised gravel is sold by that excellent little deli just off Portobello Road etc etc...."

Polenta, like most South American staples (yes I know it's also associated with the med, shut up) only becomes bourg when it's eaten as a status symbol in the paedo isles

So much of what divides working class from bougey is how things are phrased. Fish fingers are disgusting prolefood, but cod goujons are totally fine.

Cod goujons and fish fingers are not really the same thing. Like one's made entirely out of labias while the other is just a small bit of fried fish.

Unlike, say, houses, the class factor in food is almost entirely how much time and mental energy you have to devote to it. So some people at the bottom of the conventional income-based class system have a surprisingly large amount in common with those near the top.

Pretty sure that was a Tory MP back when food banks first hit the news. It was suggested as government policy to publish a recipe book based on how poor people ate through history. Until a bunch of doctors slammed the idea.
