re: #563 Killgore Trout

How are you finding the food over there? Not just the haggis but generally speaking.

I’m afraid of haggis, but Jimmah wants me to try it so I won’t be able to avoid it forever.
Generally the food is excellent in the UK honestly, especially if you’re cooking. We had salmon last night that was incredible.
I lived in the UK before and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the supermarkets were where I was.
Scotland is different though. I think it’s supposed to be the least healthy country in the EU, and I can believe it, solely because I’m severely underwhelmed by the fruit and veg selections even in the biggest places. (We went to a farmers market even, which was laughable). I think people here just don’t buy or eat a lot of them.
But I’ve only been here about two weeks, so I’m hoping I’ll find some better places. We’re cooking a lot!
