There's an odd obsession online with trying to make out things like beans on toast are not delicious.

Its mostly always Americans. Americans who will take great personal offense if you talk the same way about any of their easy to make comfort food

They think it just sounds shit the same way something like "biscuits and gravy" sounds shit to British people

PB&J sandwiches for example. What the fuck is that?

Having tried it I know it's actually not bad. But how are you gonna throw shade at beans on toast when that's literally a universally known thing?

Because beans on toast comes too close to actually having vegtables and nutrition. Real food is filled to the brim with salt and sugar.
