Ok fair enough, but I still maintain that biscuits n gravy is just the american equivalent of the british toast sandwich

Help, I am having a small pastry moment.
I sincerely tried to find nice images for both, but the tasty-looking toast sandwiches have cheese/avocado/ham/etc. At that point you're just making a double-decker sandwich.

Are you actually this ignorant about how much has changed in the last 10 years my guy?

Your weed scene is loving trash compared to the US market now. Its 2023. I can literally walk to a weed store in my city in California and buy 30% weed, concentrated resin, shatter, etc., gummies, topicals, drinks, vape carts for days, and literally everything else on offer. Everyting is lab tested, labeled, regulated, and taxed.

You guys are not part of the legal weed conversion because you technically don't even have "legal" weed.

Your weed chocolates made me feel literally ill last time I visited.

Great country, garbage weed.

The last time I smoked weed which supposedly came from California it felt like I was having electric shocks in my head every fifteen minutes. It was unpleasant.

I'll bet Afghanistan has better weed.

To further expand on this; As an American having grown up between two different countries, everything that is the American part of it has poisoned my personal worldviews and comfort levels of living in ways that can never be undone. Canada being American-adjacent; and heavily influenced by America isn't much better.

You can't just will or "positive-think" away the destruction of the entire planet via car-centric infrastructure and mass consumerism. You can't unprogram or ignore the destruction that car-centric infrastructure has had on American Society as a whole. There is nothing that can be done to save or make better the mental health issues brought upon the 300+ million Americans (and people who live in American adjacent countries) by the destruction of normal social institutions and healthy human interaction by the implementation of the car-centric suburban sprawl that made up the us by the end of the 1960s and 70s. People born in America are doomed to be inable to properly interact with each other socially, suffer from a myriad of mental-health benefits; from depression to ADHD and beyond; all due to the destruction of normal natural human interactions of public social spaces, and it's replacement with the "Drive Everywhere" model.

People in America will never know what it is to live somewhere where they know their next-door neighbor. Where they can walk to their local grocery store. To their local school. Where social events occur regularly and spontaneously amongst locals. Because that kind of social setup, which is essential for the proper formation of human psychology (us being social animals, and not some kind of omega gods) is absolutely impossible. The only way to escape from the permanent damage of the American model is literally death and rebirth somewhere else.

The natural "othering" and extreme racial and sexual discrimination of other human beings that occurs in America is so extreme because our social setup is in itself so extreme and unnatural and our society breeds extremely unhealthy human beings who are destined to suffer for their entire life and only hurt other people because they are socially stunted due to poor socialization.

If you raise a dog or a cat without socializing it or introducing it to other animals or human beings it will inevitably grow into a dangerous or sick animal; either extremely aggresive and violent; or extremely sad and depressed as well as sick; or some mutant sickfuck combination of the two. It is nearly impossible to remedy this. Animals with these issues are very often put down because there's no way to actually resocialize them easily once they've been raised improperly.

Human beings are nothing more than animals. The same applies to us. You can't just fix something that was broken from the beginning easily. Human beings who are born in raised in modern America are permanently stunted and damaged physically and mentally in ways that never can be fixed. America deserves to be hated for the damage it has wrought upon its citizens and the world.

i'm happy for u

Why do you dip sweet things into the drippings of your Sunday roast. It doesn't make any sense, it's like when the french dip buttered baguettes or croissants into hot chocolate.

You're insane.

Also, why are the biscuits actually cookies, and the cookies actually cakes? This gastronomic escalation is unstatainable :colbert:

Also, also, why is jelly?

What kind of fake rear end biscuits and gravy is that

Garnish and the biscuits aren't broken up before putting the gravy on, shameful

You forgot the pork fat, dork!

so this is a big point of distinction - I think most Euros are thinking about gravy made with beef fat, like something you'd have with dinner. American breakfast gravy is made with pork fat, usually the grease from the bacon or sausage cooked with the meal.

as you can see, the gravy is lighter/greyer than beef fat gravy

putting beef gravy on a biscuit would be really weird and gross

Why? That's just beef gravy on bread basically. Wouldn't be much different from a yorkshire pudding.

an American breakfast biscuit is basically a round firm croissant. Its not like a dinner roll. As an American it would be extremely weird :shrug:

EDIT

also key point of distinction missing from my previous post - most american breakfast gravy will almost always have chunks of sausage in it. Its not carbs-on-carbs like a bread sandwich or whatever
