The English pilgrims did not set up the American colonies to escape oppression from England - they created the colonies to live by their own strict religious beliefs because they considered Britain was too 'liberal'
And the authorities got sick of them.
You’re right about how in the US you’re taught British people left Britain to go to America for religious freedom. But in actuality it was the extremists.
In the UK we had the Puritans they were extremists within the Church of England. With the goals of purifying England. They led the English civil war under the claim of doing it for democracy. But once in power they enacted extreme religious laws. Making it against the law to sing, to dance, to wear make up, and basically anything fun. They even banned Christmas because they viewed it as unchristian with celebrating, drinking, feasting, and merry making.
They heavily persecuted Catholics as well.
It only lasted 12 years before we reinstated the monarchy, under the condition it was now a constitutional monarchy. And all the extreme laws were removed.
After failing to purify England they left. As pilgrims to the new world. Where they would be free to persecute anyone they didn’t consider Christian enough with laws and executions.
In Massachusetts under Puritan law missing Church service was an arrestable offence.
imagine banning singing while bible teaches you angels and that we will sing to god as a worship sign lol, I understand christmas is pagan tradition but it's extreme to ban it
Genuinely wonder what US schools teach id love to see their syllabus for history especially the reasons people left Britain to colinize the Americas.
9:48 beans on toast is good in Australia as well.
No no one I know eats beans on toast for breakfast, it is usually made as a quick snack later in the day.
Our food isn't really that bad, people tend to judge our food by the obscure stuff that not many people actually eat if at all, not the everyday stuff we eat. We have the full english breakfast which is very nice but it's a once a week thing or a once in a blue moon thing for most of us. Beans on toast isn't a breakfast thing, it's a anytime of day thing. 2 rounds of toast with a can of baked beans (different from american baked beans i might add), if you feeling like putting in some effort maybe put scrambled egg on top and some cracked black pepper with a nice cup of english breakfast tea(we don't realy drink fancy flavours of tea or herbal tea here).
Sandwiches if made right are really healthy and very nice and filling, but with your processed bread, and processed cheese ect you will never get it. SORRY baseball was called rounders and mainly played by girls. Your football is a soft form of Rugby. The song was only sung in gentlemens clubs Google it.
MERRY CHRISTMAS to you both🎅🎅
Thanks for the info! And you are definitely right about the bread haha merry xmas! 🎄
Oh yes nothing more British than apple pie or apple crumble I remember the first time I heard as American as apple pie on American TV I was like WHAT!!
Last night I watched a video called "American History's Biggest Fibs", you might find it interesting. Have a great Christmas guys, and all the best in the new year.
The pilgrims wanted a much more strict religious rule in England
The government said no so they sailed to America
Chocolate was first found from the South American indigenous peoples but in a drinks format including chilli so a very spicy drink. In The Midlands of the UK Cadburys have a village almost where the original workers lived called Bournville. This is where the Cadbury brother moved to from the original factory site in the middle of Birmingham and made a village factory on the middle of parkland next the river of Bourn. This is now a show place called Cadbury world showcasing the history of Chocolate, as part of this visitors used to be able to sample the supposed original drink from the South American peoples. It’s still there!!
They were in to cacao enemas too ^^
Sadly you (the USA) are apparently unaware of the brilliant expanse of possible pies that are available throughout the world! Yes we still love apple pies but we also love many, many, many other kinds of pies.
Albert Einstein from - excuse me - WHERE? Austria?
I did hear people believing that Mozart was austrian and Hitler was german, but now Einstein too? Really.
Peace and much love from Switzerland 🇨🇭
Love your work and enjoy listening to your conversations 👌

We get our bad record of food in America because of the war when we had little, now just look at most of international chefs like Oliver, Ramsey, Lawson are British, plus look at number of Michelin stars. Like America the UK is an immigrant country but going back thousands of years so all groups left dishes and foods when they arrived, hence why sub contental or Indian and Bengali food is so popular here. Jews from Europe get Kosher food sent from UK all over Europe and our Halal bengali and turkish is some of the best in Europe. We also have way better teeth than you because we get the reputation from WW2 which was prior to the national health service. More interestingly for you guys a man called John Maynard Keynes (keysian economics fame) borrowed alot of money from you on behalf of the British Government, with that money we started the NHS over 70 years ago.
We are big on pies sweet, savory and meaty in the UK.
Oohh yes, Steak & Ale pies , sausage rolls, Cornish pasties. . . . darn, guess it'll be Greggs for breakfast. 😋
@@nicecupparosie as a Cornishman I can't touch a Greggs Cornish Pasty but then I'll only eat Hampsons or Philps Cornish bakeries, plus you get proper Scone and Cornish saffron buns at same time.
@@gavinhall6040 Yep, local independent bakeries are always gonna be better. Still remember best pork pie I had from Dickinson and Morris in Melton Mowbray .
@@nicecupparosie funny that the 2nd World War America GI memories are still so prevalent in the US, when we have 200 odd Michelin stars in each country but we are the size of like oregan or something lol.
Don't know about the UK but apple pie in the netherlands (appeltaart) is very popular
British Apple pie isn't as sweet and tend to not have cinnamon its served with custard/creme de anglais is a traditionally served after a meal. In Cornwall we put Cornish clotted cream put its also served with whipped cream, ice cream and sometimes cheddar cheese. Ps sometimes its served dangerously hot from McDonald's anytime after 11 😂
@Jacob Bax - There used to be a little bakery near us (German baker and her Polish husband) that made appletaart, don't know how authentic it was, but tasted amazing.
@Gavin Hall - Yes there are great apple pies here in the UK, sadly most people's experience is limited to a Mr Kipling.
My granny makes the best mince pie and apple tarts and that’s on god ….. her short crusts are elite love from Northern Ireland
Our beans and bread are different to yours, so even if you try beans on toast they're not like ours...
This is just what I remember from going to school in Illinois in the 1950s, the puritans claimed to have left England so they could be free to worship as their faith dictated. IMO they were probably run out, because they were a bunch of religious fanatics, pretty much like the modern day Taliban of Afghanistan, and they are still causing trouble to this day. Imo a lot of why the US never lived up to its constitution is because the puritans want to control all the power and money. Anyone who wants to criticize me for being un American I don’t care what you think and go do some real research on US history while you’re at it. And before you want to tell me I can leave the states if I don’t like it, I already did and I’m doing just fine!
I do love that you're only posting weekly. That's a good time frame when evaluating something more long term. Unfortunately, I will be here for reasons. I will be rooting for you as best I can.
Breakfast. Beans and fried mushrooms on toast most days. I would doubt this is very common.
The FULL ENGLISH (Scottish, Irish, Welsh) is the King of breakfasts!
If you really think US food is better than UK I would recommend watching some of the videos online that compare US and UK foods and see what ingredients are added to US foods that are bad for you or in fact are banned within a lot of other countries :-) not saying our food is great but at least we try and not include toxic chemicals :-)
Oh and in regards to chocolate, before it was pressed into bars by the British it was mainly added to drinks :-)
UK food gets a bad rap, but actually it's really very good and incredibly varied. We have immigrants from all over the old British Empire that settled here bringing there cuisine with them that have been absorbed into local English cuisine plus we have Scottish, Welsh and Irish cuisine.
Lots of apple pie in Norway, we have a ton of apple species perfect for it and to my knowledge it's been made for hundreds of years here.
the office UK had 2 writers the office USA had 30 writers
Don't know any normal person who eats beans on toast for breakfast, maybe dinner time or tea time if you're a lazy sod or skint
Ha I'm normal not lazy or skint but have beans on toast mid morning sometimes 😋
15:10 einstein was german, not from austria. but close. beethoven and mustach guy are from austria
Oh, and these black Christmas hats are really cool. Opens up my anarchistic and atheistic heart for a bit of Christmas.
Have a great Christmas, dears.
Was just going to post about their hats! By coincidence I just received my membership certificate for The Satanic Temple in the post. December 25 is one of our holidays too, so in the spirit of "Celebration of being unconquered by superstition and consistent in the pursuit and sharing of knowledge" let me just wish you a happy Sol Invictus.
@@michaelnolan6951 Haha, I went this path in the past, long ago. IMHO, satanism is a kind of self-defense for atheists in christian dominated countries. LOL.
Happy Sol Invictus to you, too.

There are many reasons why people started to move across what is today the Bering strait 30.000+ years ago, from territorial to resources.
The same happened when the first Europeans started to explore Wineland more than 1000 years ago.
Recent immigrants you are referring to came mainly to claim land to expand their territories to achieve resources.
The first to arrive from Spain, Portugal, Russia, Netherland, Britain, France, Sweden and Denmark-Norway did so mainly for wealth and fortune.
People that arrived later did so for all sorts of reasons. Hunger and disease, people on the run, opportunists, workers/slaves (it was common with slaves all over the place, not only black slaves), people being tricked by rumors and being given free land etc.
America plays part of Elgar's Land of Hope and Glory at graduation plus the tune to God Save the Queen is used in "My Country Tis of Thee " .There are of course many American imports to Britain in modern times.
Have a nice one, Peace from the UK. Xmas
American Football is actually a Odd form of Rugby and have nothing to do with football/soccer.😎🇧🇻
Damn it didn't start with "Alright !!" again...
I’ll make sure to start the next one with this! 🤣 - Brian
Merry Christmas!!
The sandwich flex is more the name and the concept. Though a cheese and pickle sandwich is very British (and not the US type of pickle!!).
Plenty of videos out there of UK slang, we like to cuss/curse!!
Linda, they meant chocolate in bar form.
Plastic surgery is for two reasons. You only think about "esthetics", like botox, lifts, and the female form. However it is also done for medical purposes, think breast amputation etc etc. So you might not notice it, but still....
Linda, no. Hamburger was given the name after the city Hamburg. Hotdogs are also known as Frankfurters, because if the city in Germany...
The Brits came late to the US. New York, formerly New Amsterdam was trade off from the Dutch, for a more attractive commercial thing, we got Suriname out of that deal.
Football huh. Strange thing this American version. Not played by foot, (certainly not feet alone) and an oval shaped thingy they call a ball. Look at balls used in any sport, they are round globe things, does not matter if we talk about actual football (you guys named soccer), table tennis, golf, bowling, snooker etc etc etc balls are round, not oval. So, tell me why do you Americans call it football, because I think the name is not descriptive of what the sport is about.
Hi Guys
Here is the "The Anacreontic Song" by John Stafford Smith that was refered to in the video and Was the tune used for the "Star Spangled Banner" with lyrics by Francis Scott Key ruclips.net/video/4IPLFLH3BHU/видео.html
Village People appeared in a number of adverts over here in Britain a number of years ago. There is an American Cricket team. American football comes from Rugby where they don’t wear helmets or big pads as they are men and use what they were born with quoting Jeremy Clarkson on The Grand Tour in an episode in the tent in America.
I don't like American football. To less action, to much advertising.
I love rugby. A real sport for real men (and women!) 😁
Chocolate goes back thousands of years, but the chocolate bar is more recent...
Hi and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!! Your American football is actually an almost identical copy of the British game of Rugby League which was a breakaway system of fast paste gameplay in the North of England which is still played today. There are differing rules to this game because it was designed for working class player to become professional payed players which the original game of Rugby wasn’t being originated in the halls of the big British university society mostly for prestige in the South of England. You even kept the point system and the play rules of it but made it stop more often to sell more bear and hotdogs for the pitch owners.
Like the mini discussions guys, but don’t forget there no American World Cup football game.
Cheers aah kids. Love the hats.
The pilgrim fathers were part of a religious sect which was oppressed a little in England. But the history of US misses out the step of them moving to the Netherlands and they were annoyed by the religious freedom there. So they came to America to set up their own religious community and keep out others
Cricket was popular in the US before the civil war. The first international game was between Canada and the US. A lot of money went into promoting baseball after the civil war
There is a whole family of related games called football. Notably Rugby football and association football (real football). American football is an offshoot of rugby football. The name soccer comes from association, and rugby fans will still call football soccer in the uk
Hey guys, the cult around YMCA(the song) is very easy to explain. It is very obviously a kind of sassy gay dance floor hymn. C'mon, a policeman, a Native American, a cowboy, a construction worker ... come to a Christian young men's club, uhhhhm, kinky gay fantasies with a funny dance, big party fun with a second layer message, you get it. And HOW would you censor a song, that invites to a Christian club, LOL. And the gay communities of the 70s and 80s had a huge impact on the party culture, esp. with pop and dance music. Let's face it - they had the best new party pop music - half a year before all others. (Boy George/Culture Club, Frankie goes to Hollywood "Relax (don't do it, when you wanna go thru it)", Village People, and sooo many others ...) Gay Pride stuff became more public in these decades, and they did it the fun way, those who knew, did get the underlying messages, LOL. 🙂
Luv your vids Loners.
I always had doubts about our history teacher, (Status Quo fan (the band not the state of affairs) who habitually wore a brown corduroy jacket with leather patches that was a size too big) .
Anyways, we were taught tens of thousands of Puritans left the UK and Europe in the 1630's for the "New World" (North America) for religious freedom, as they weren't happy with the changes to and fracturing of the major Christian religions here.
That sounds about right. Read up on the Great Puritan Migration for more details if you want a refresher.
As for history teachers, ours wore a tweed suit and tie no matter what the weather.
I love the band status quo! I used to skateboard to that band all the time. - Brian
As an European, what I was taught is that it's indeed the extremists who went.
Because there was a certain freedom of religion in their part of Europe, so they weren't allowed to convert people by force. So they went to America to be able to convert people in peace, and were also kinda pushed out by their government that didn't want them.
Also many people that went to America were death convict that could escape death at the condition they go populate the "new world".
So yeah. There were indeed some that did escape their bad living condition but most of them were people their government didn't want
Just caught up with this one.
If that’s what you wear for Christmas I hate to think
what you wear for funerals.
Greetings from the UK.
Earlier than the chocolate bar other countries would drink chocolate.
The first international cricket match was between U.S.A and Canada in 1844 .I hear cricket is slowly catching on again in America.
Apple Pie with fresh whipped cream. If it isn't popular it's being done wrong. Think a crumble might be up there in popularity too (UK).
American Football is derived from Rugby Football, to such an extent that it barely resembles it.
Another reason cricket didn't take off in America is that games last 5 days and Americans don't have the attention span
I'm English but I never eat baked beans on toast or any other way. My breakfast is tea and toast, sometimes with marmalade. I go through phases of having coffee instead of tea but I tend to think coffee is good with croissants while tea is better with toast. Occasionally I have cereal or muesli. I never have a cooked breakfast, such as a fry up, but sometimes on a Sunday I have scrambled eggs on toast with smoked salmon for a treat - smoked salmon, if it's good quality, is expensive.
This was a bit of a crap list, why did they choose to put over half of the things as food
Listen, I have to step in here and defend my British friends a bit.
They are weird, let them eat their beans on toast, but besides some really weird contraptions from their cooking, I gotta defend them, they get a really bad rep for their food, even though they do genuinely have quite a lot of good food, it would be better to say that they also have a particularly high amount of really weird food.
I mean, apple pie is one thing but you can absolutely extend that, a good cottage or sheperd's pie with some gravy on top is brilliant, you'll rarely have something as satisfying. I'll not mention fish and chips since its low hanging fruit, but the British were famous for their Roastbeef to the point where the French even now jokingly call the English "les rosbifs", and I will die on this hill that a good roastbeef with some tartar sauce/remoulade is somethin you'll find real hard to beat.
Custard is easy to make but straight up very good, also easy to mix with all types of ingredients, fruits, especially if you make a kompott from apples and put some custard on that.
Of course the famous yorkshire pudding with gravy, but I'll be honest, yeah it's good. Really nice consistency and you can't go wrong with some gravy in most cases anyway.
Their cheese isn't as famous as the french, sure, but I'll be honest, Cheddar is just pretty good cheese, it tastes great, you can eat it even when lactose intolerant, and its possibly one of the best types of cheese if you want to have melted cheese on anything, like a burger or on some pasta, yeah French cheese is more varied, but you don't use French cheese for that type of thing.
Next would be a simple thing but scallops, I know not everyone likes seafood, but fresh scallops are amazing, just don't freeze them or you'll ruin their texture, many countries have scallops, but again, just saying what the British have that's great.
Fishcake, just plain food but again put some remoulade on it and you got a banging taste.
I guess an honourable mention would be Haggis, people are sometimes afraid of it, since it's innards, all I can say is try it, because there's a good chance you'll like it if you stop being mental about "ohh no I am eating the innards of an animal rather than just the meat pulled from it's bones, how dirty"
One genuine request though, I need the British to make more food with their own fish, it's an island, this list should be filled with local specialities and dishes made from fish and there's so fewwwww. Just copy the Japanese or something.
Chocolate was originally sold as a drink until they found a way to get it to solidify and most chocolate manufacturers were Quakers who promoted it as a healthier option to Alcohol which was a very big problem in Victorian Britain , also at the time a lot of the big Football clubs were formed for the same reasons
I've never watched the british version of The Office, but i just can't understand what people find so great about the US version. For me its not funny at all. Its just like bad hobby actors who all tried hard to be funny .. but they just aren't.
In the end i just stopped after maybe 1.5 seasons. I skipped through later seasons but it seems to be very much the same still.
Parks & Recreations on the other hand, it starts very much in style of The Office, but the more they stopped with that and made their own thing the better it got, and that show i really loved. Especially Nick Offerman as Ron Swanson is so damned great.
greetings from Germany 🤘🏼
We love parks and rec! Ron Swanson is hilarious but we do also love the office! Especially Brian lol
Hi, Merry Christmas, your baseball is based on our game called rounders which never caught on as a professional game like football and is only played by children. The bat is a lot smaller and there is differences in the rules Regards. JH
Don't be sad if some of your favorite things or foods isn't from America, plenty of things was invented in the states. For example the amazing pooper scooper, that to my knowledge came from California, so there's plenty to be proud of.
Beans ON toast is a staple tea-time meal in the UK -- for generations. Cheap, when you don't have a bean (sorry!), and fills you up. They are NOT for breakfast...
@Steve Page True, Steve, but it's only a minor part and often has to be requested, as you say. Beans on toast are a specific meal in the UK and not a breakfast. Great video, though! :-)
@@stevepage5415 yes but not just beans, that's horrific at that time of the day
The Netherlands had a monarchy ruling them backed by the catholics and then became a republic ruled by protestants. The catholics were the ones who went to the US. The catholics even tried to stage a coup with backing of Willem II Prince of Orange. It failed. The ones who actually were opposed to freedom went to the US. At least in the Netherlands.
It was called United Provinces of the Netherlands, officially as the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands. A very similar name as the US.
A piece of the Dutch declaration of in dependence. It's also is regarded as the first constitution.
On July 26, 1581, the States General of the United Provinces of the Low Countries issued the Plakkaat van Verlatinge. The Plakkaat, commonly known in English as the Act of Abjuration, argued that the actions of King Phillip II of Spain delegitimized his rule over the Low Countries. As stated in its preamble, when a "prince" does not "defend them from oppression and violence as the shepherd his sheep.... but, on the contrary, oppresses them, seeking opportunities to infringe their ancient customs and privileges, exacting from them slavish compliance, then he is no longer a prince, but a tyrant, and the subjects are to consider him in no other view. And particularly when this is done deliberately, unauthorized by the states, they may not only disallow his authority, but legally proceed to the choice of another prince for their defense."
One who is not familar with the Plakkaat might find these sentiments familiar; this is likely because of its similarities to the American Declaration of Independence, which states that "when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."
The Netherlands also helped the US to gain independence just like the French. Often forgotten!
i dont know a single person who has beans and toast for breakfast its more of a small lunch meal but we do have them on a English breakfast
Beans on Toast is delicious, British Baked beans apparently are very different to American beans (US is BBQ flavour?), less sweet (obviously, as we know how much you love your sugar). Poured over buttered hot toasted white bread. Fantastic. If you really want to spoil yourself grate some Cheddar over the top.
...and now I'm hungry reading that.
You need the Heinz beans from UK. US tends to add brown sugar or molasses or maple and often bacon, works as a BBQ side dish but not on toast.
Sadly even US bread has a lot of sugar added. Quick google shows Classic white Wonder bread is 8.7 grams per 100g of bread while your standard Hovis sliced white is 3.5g.
You can put poached eggs on top too 👍😋
We definately do not eat beans for Breakfast. Never heard of of it until I read about it, until I read it on You Tube.
"Christmas"... "black Santa hat"... I could clearly imagine you could have a black christmas in the USA, with all the car fumes dye the snowfall black, maybe even with some soot. Similar to that one episode from South Park. xD
Sorry, football was invented at McGill University in Canada and, even the NFL, redognized this claim. The game of football was played in Canada, eight years before the US David Camp version. The Grey Cup, is like twice as old as the Superbowl. Likewise, a Canadian invented basketball and ice hockey. Sorry lol
Merry xmas from Amsterdam
Merry Xmas! Have great holidays ✌️
We eat what most other countries.. eat for breakfast..cereals,toast.fruit,yoghurt.i like croissants.pancakes. porridge..we also have hot breakfast like usa..eggs and bacon sausage...full english has tomatoes.black pudding .mushrooms.beans. hash brown..nice once in a blue moon..but i rarely eat one. I Eat more cereals toast fruit.yoghurt.😄🇬🇧
So the Dutch invented the chocolate bar. It's gin all over again. The UK can have the doughnut if they give us gin.
react to: US Anthem Stolen from British Drinking Song | What History Forgot
You definitely should watch the Fast Show from England 😂
For the original tune of the national anthem, look up 'The Anacreon Song' on 'Joao Rocha' channel.
Thanks
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year (soon)!
afaik a good size chunk (certainly not all) of the migrants to the U.S. were escaping religious persecution from the Catholic church, they were Christians but like Protestant, Lutheran etc. Some were English convicts others just escaping poverty for a chance to build a better life in the new world.
In Australia we (well a lot of us) call it soccer because we have our own style of football (footy), I think (Aussie Rules Football) was the first codified (before soccer, rugby, American grid iron etc.) and has Australian Aboriginal influences, Marngrook, as well (which means part of it's history goes back 40,000/60,000 years) early/mid 1850's.
Gotta go check out the Vegemite vs Marmite vlog now, (Marmite invented/created before Vegemite)
Hey guys love the black Christmas attire, hope the xmas season is good for you and have a happy and healthy '23, love from Australia❤
It’s really strange, I wonder what Americans are taught about the founding of America? In Europe over many centuries, there has been a massive, let’s call it tug-of-war between many of the major European countries, much of the start of colonising, America, both north and south has come about through rivalry between these groups. Spanish, Portuguese, English, Dutch. Things like the first thanksgiving was held 50 years before the pilgrim fathers. I have a feeling inconvenient facts and history has often been written over And the true story of America has been written out to give a larger part or more favourable view for certain groups over the actual truth just a thought
Cricket is a 'Gentlemans' game
Would like to see your thoughts on Australia as well.
Very little plastic surgery in the UK. Mostly performed on Accident victims, when they will come under the NHS..
What happened? Are you in mourning? Did Santa Claus die?
I find it so amusing that Yawl, took a children's school yard game and turned it into a national sport. You call it Baseball, we call it Rounders.
Cricket is too slow a game for you guys. You want everything to be fast paced.
Hi guys just going back through your older videos, Plastic sugery is not really a thing here in the UK, Some do get it done, But its not a thing, i would say botox and the lips and maybe breast implants they do, would be an average, im 58 and dont know anyone who has had surgery. our culture is about looking good, dressing indevidual, but doing the best with what you got, we dont see age as bad thing, That also goes for alot of europe as you would have seen going to spain
The anacreon song is the original song. That you guys turned into the American national anthem. They both sound similar
Go to London and walk around Harrods or Selfridges... you'll see lots of plastic and I'm not talking about cards.
There is a famous revelation about donuts involving your president John Kennedy, he famously went to Berlin and did a speech to the German people, and he said in German “ ich bin ein Berliner” obviously in unison with the surrounded city of Berlin, except in Germany they had been making donuts there for years, they are called Berliners, so JFK actually said was “I am a donut”
Cricket is too complicated for Americans
And I'm not sure the US would have the patience for the length of matches when a short one is only one day!!
I love warm fruit pies with ice cream in the summer 😋😋😋 🇬🇧
I eat beans on toast for breakfast for lunch for tea and for supper 😋😋😋 whenever I fancy it 👍
Have you watched the Carry On movies? Carry On Camping ⛺👍 is my favourite so funny - British bawdy comedy
Before ever setting foot in North America, the Pilgrims spent several years living in Holland. Led by William Brewster and John Robinson, the group initially fled to Amsterdam in 1608 to escape religious persecution for holding clandestine services that were not sanctioned by the Church of England before going to North America, Merry Christmas and all the best in the New Year from Australia. Peace out.
Thanks for the info! Happy holidays 🎄
As a Brit, apple pie isn't that common. Give a Brit some apples to make a dessert and I'm guessing most would make apple crumble; even apple turnovers are more popular than apple pie. To most Brits, pies are usually savoury, filled with steak and ale, steak and kidney, beef and onion.
an apple crumble is an apple pie to most americans
No turn them into cider😄
As a Brit I have made many Apple Pies and Crumble but have Never made Apple turnovers.
American Football 🏈 came from Rugby 🏉.
YMCA is a gay anthem about meeting men at the Y. Just saying. Its basically a Come and bang all night.. Kind of song. It was a surprise that it wqs allowed to get through fhe sensors. But also that was this mega disco hit that the normals was dancing to like every weekend at the clubs around the world without knowing its meaning... 😎
IN 1875 yale Harvard played game of Rugby Football it was called a game of football .It was decided it was too dangerous to play, and what you know call football was born.in1871 A Canadian PE teacher, as a warm up for a football invented basketball
Full English Breakfast.
The forefathers of the USA, were not fleeing persecution or control. They were the same colonial pioneers, explorers, and business men that the British had in many countries around the world....and it was not the fact they resented being British, but more British control from afar.... and that's what happens after the first settlers arrive anywhere, and 1 or 2 generations passes, they want to be self governed.
Men Without Hats had the Safety Dance!!!
Wow, hadn't thought of them for decades, gonna listen to it next.
For some reason that part of the vid brought to my mind the Aussie band Men at Work and the song Down Under.
@@nicecupparosie Yes, me too, floods of nostalgia as have just watched both.
Rugby and American football. The World Wide Web.
Cricket was hugely popular in America however there was a concerted campaign by men in positions of power to promote Baseball as a proper American pastime and to denounce cricket as an effeminate sport played by the English , there were similar campaigns in Australia and Ireland to denounce rugby and promote their ideas of separateness through Gaelic football and Aussie rules respectively. Ps Both countries still play Rugby at a high level though.

Also, i didnt give a flying fuck about sarnies before moving to England. England can do sarnies better than anyone. And the choice is ridiculous. So I'll take a UK sarnie over anything from. America any day. The Ploughman is the king, but the spreads in the sandwich shops are godlike. Ngl. 😍
So when my danish side of the family talk about amazing sandwiches its always about what England has to offer.. 😎
UK also invented Basketball 🙂
