# I know...
I'm from those parts. :)

Mmm... Chips with mayonaise.

# I was utterly dismissive
of chips with mayonnaise until I tried it but now I think it's a wonderful invention. Of course, both mayonnaise and ketchup simultaneously is best. Though I wonder what mayonnaise and brown sauce would be like. Hmmm, I feel an experiment coming on

# hmm
we dip chips in ranch salad dressing here. that's probably very similar to the mayonnaise.

Vinegar is popular as well. yummm.

# They use
salad dressing in Belgium. I couldn't
really get into that. Or vinegar.

# have you got root beer?
root beer and ranch were both new to my brit friend

# I think so
I've had it overthere otherwise.

# Once, when I was on a bus from Bournemouth to Leeds
We stopped off at Oxford and I went to McDs to get some snacks for the journey and bought a large root beer (this shows how long ago it was, McDs haven't sold root beer over here for years), thinking it would be like ginger beer. I remained convinced for several years that McDs had accidentally swapped their root beer truck for an antiseptic mouthwash truck

# does Ginger Beer = Ginger Ale?
I love root beer, but I've seen people have that reaction to first trying it.
(I helped save b3ta! gracielou, Sun 13 Apr 2003, 12:22, archived)
# It is largely the same, yes
But I think that sort of reaction is as naught to the reactions I've seen when Americans have tried Marmite for the first time, expecting it to be like marmalade. Chortle. You poor sausages

# I always heard it was like cheese
but it smells too repulsive to taste

# I hate it when the words get
all scrunched up after a long conversation...

# I was thinking
of raising a planning application for
the extension of the board.

# mmmmm I love chips and mayonaise
but a Dutch girl I used to work with said Dutch mayo was far superior to anything we get over here. Sadly we were both made redundant before she went home again to get some for me
