US/UK Food: You call it whaaaaaaaat?

[Annunakian]

I didn't get a chance to try any of that fried stuff this past year (I haven't gone to the fair in about 6 years). I was in my first tri and it was VERY hot and I was very ill due to MS. The only thing I ate was a hot dog and one of those huge dill pickles. mmmm! But if I go next year I'm bringing home like 100 bucks worth of fried everything.

I really want to try that chocolate covered bacon. LOL

This thread is funny- I am English but live in the US and just spent 14 days back in England, where everything I said was "americanized" so I kept getting corrected LOL

Its just easier to say the AMerican words so not to confuse the Americans, but when I am in England I get so confused when I say a sentence it takes me a about a minute to choose the correct word for the country LOL

 

[Rachel B]

Oh and I worked in a grocery store for a bit and when I had to make announcements saying what the sales were that was so hard ..... Chicken Fillet pronounced fill it in England and Fill a in the US... That would always make me stutter LOL

 

[sma1588]

i love the fair but always feel so sick from the food. i have never tried the chocolate bacon though it does not sound good at all

 

[Megg33k]

@ shipping bacon bars internationally! I suppose that's one way to get them!

Rachel - That would be SO hard. I speak both pretty fluently... and it is hard to choose sometimes. If I've been on BnB too much, I have a hard time in my "real" life to choose what words to use from time to time! LOL

 

[Annunakian]

LOL! I'm up in Wisc, right above you. Just usps.

 

[Megg33k]

Oh! Didn't realize you were in WI! LOL That's easier! They have them at Fresh Market... There's one in WI... but not necessarily near you. I wouldn't have guessed where you were... Was thrown off by the PXY-887... Thought it was something international I didn't know about! LOL Google tells me its not international at all!

 

[sequeena]

I don't get how chicken fillet (we call them breasts) can be pronounced differently in other places... it has a t on the end

LOL It's all good. The article I posted earlier was from the Wisc State Fair, only place I know of since I live here.

My location is a geek type thing, Stargate and all.
