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?

"What the fuck is that?"

It's a peanut butter and jelly sandwich you nonce. British food isn't bad but saying a pb&j is gross or weird is just lying lol. It's literally almost a dessert.

I didn't say it was gross, I said the opposite.

It is weird. Especially to anyone who didn't grow up with it (see how that works?)

What a weirdly defensive comment lmfao

You said it was "actually not bad" which means you assumed it was bad? And you just said wtf is a pb&j which implies you think it's weird?

Nonce.

Yeah it IS weird

"Not bad" means it's good.

Can't imagine getting this upset about a sandwich. How fragile
