Things from your country the rest of the world needs to try

Poteen.

The strongest liquor in the world.

It's made with potatoes (what isn't in Ireland) and is illegal.

Drinking a glass has a similar feeling to being shot.

Google Spirytus. It's 95% alcohol, all made for drinking baby. It tastes like fire and a punch to the throat.

 

[SmartIdiot]

Ive noticed most of the suggestions are food/drink.

Good point. Nearly forgot the UK's own special brand of football violence and knife crime. Simply a must try.

You forgot teen pregnancy! Its pretty popular here too!

Shit, yeah! While we're here, childhood obesity anyone? Anyone?

God! Where on the same wavelink here, Illegal immigrants too?

As long as they're illegal, a definite. Oh and unemployment must also be tried at least once.

Being completely arse raped when it snows a little too, plus asbos and the Jeremy Kyle show.

Whew... I... I think we've covered the finest Britain has to offer...

Sure, as long as it's not that Special Brew the chavs down the road were drinking earlier.

Roast Dinners - we're the only ones who do them in their well-known form (by We I mean the commonwealth). Everywhere else it's just a big cooked dinner, but with us, it's a proper dish. Also, it wouldn't be complete without the definatly-British Yorkie Pudding
Chicken Tika Masala - Glaswegian
Marmalade - Is actually Roma-Grecan, but Paddington Bear is goddamn awesome, so that's close enough
Crumpets - Anglo-Saxon invention of ancient origins
Scones - are Scottish, end of story
Apple Crumble - definatly British and completely unlike a Pie. Closer to the more-American but ever-delicious Cobbler

Wow, you know a shitload about tasty treats. Also, I didn't mean that the apple crumble was the same as the apple pie, I just meant that an American (and most other countries' men) will just have an apple pie if asked.

fish and chips um, no marmite um, no deep-fried mars bars dammit that was Scotland, you know what, England hasn't done anything.

So much good literature, though.
Being American, I'd say DEMOCRACY! Actually, I think we have the market cornered in ice cream flavors. I've read England has only a few, and I can't imagine the rest of the world being much better.

Steak, seriously if you are ever in Argentina order one. It is a must.

and Democracy was invented by the greeks

Come on America, live on the wild side like us Canadians! Put vinegar on your fries! It's awesome!

Mannnn, my family decided to go to Toronto from buffalo. We stopped at a mcdonalds and I noticed vinegar packets next to the ketchup and stuff. I seriously said "What the fuck is this" to myself, now keep in mind i was 10 years old and didnt fully understand what "fuck" meant, but damnit I said it!
That is just weird to me lol

Well in Turkey we have what is called "Doner Kebabs" which for me is like crack.

The rest of the world needs to try it out.

Theres a take away called 'Turkish kebabs' five minutes from my house. It is delicious.

OMG YEEEES. I LOVE doner kebab.
what the world needs to try from my country... I dunno, the red light district? we haven't got much else. I wouldn't recommend tulips, windmills or wooden shoes. wait. maybe cheese. yesh, get Old Amsterdam. it's cheese as old as stonehenge. and about as easy to cut. but DAMN does it taste good.

I agree, we did do good on the literature front, but now we have kind of lost global relevance. Also, France and Italy do quite well on the ice cream front.

So what things from your country would you recomend the rest of the world gives a go!

Anyone from Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland will know that awesomeness that is potatoe bread.

Ok, your turn, GO!

Wait? You're Irish!!!? ... ... cool

Yes, Belfast born and bred, Why the shock?

I guess I must have automatically assumed you were American because of the seemingly vast number of Americans on this site. So it wasn't so much 'shock', so to speak, as it was unexpected.

Another glorious thing that Canada and the UK share. Awesome! Also gravy on chips is a winner, but I think thats pretty common.

 

[BENZOOKA]

Sauna. I guess that's enough.

 

[Soxafloppin]

Sauna. I guess that's enough.

As in a sauna, wooden heat box thing?
