Why else would such a small place produce so many immigrants? 🙄

(Other than long cold wet days and nights & plenty of beer goggles... )

XZaNy doesn't needs th support... but NZ has some of the most interesting and excellent cold-water seafoods I've ever tasted...

🙄 Not to mention incredibly good white wines to match up with them!

Kidney smells/tastes like something that processes urine. And Steak and Kidney pudding smells the same. Even the steak tastes like kidney.

I haven't tried the pie but I can't imagine it's much better.

Scottish cuisine is, of course, much better than English.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you: Deep Fried Mars bar.

(Actually not too bad - had one recently with a wee orange sorbet).
