canned......
tea?
what is this?
Arizona is really just tea flavoured sugar water but it's cheap AF so everyone (including me) drinks it anyways
Cheaper than water in many places still.
A corner store near my college occasionally had 4 cans for $2. I’d stock up for weeks at a time when that happened, and I got a sick finger workout carrying a ton of paper bags full of them home
They don’t taste great, but for less than a dollar a can? 100% worth it
Funny, cause in Germany it's pretty expensive and considered somewhat of a premium product.
Tea is just tea flavored sugar water.
Nah, I drink my hot leaf juice without sugar, thank you.
It's just as good as "real" tea, provided you serve it hot by putting it in a mug and microwaving it.
A packet of non-dairy creamer and you have real English tea!
who hurt you :(
No
I have noticed that British fantasy authors (Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, and you-know-who) tend to describe wonderful meals, so I think that tells us something about Bri'ish cuisine. For them, good food apparently is just as fantastical as talking animals and wizards.
Though have you seen just how many food descriptions are in ASOIAF (Game of Thrones books)? GRR Martin loves a good food description.
Have you seen GRRM? He loves a good food.

My word!
I guess that's one way to declare war with Britain...
We have already colonised OP's house and liberated his possessions for the British Museum.
Looks like one of the plastic cups they give to people is psychwards. Checks out.
I have had this precise meal many times in college. Luxurious, but not a succulent Chinese meal.
This...is democracy manifest!
GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY PENIS!
We (Aussies from Melbourne) tried to find decent Chinese food in England and gave up. Most of it was worse than Australian Chinese from the 1970's! The Indian and Turkish restaurants however, were amazing.
Decent...but not succulent for sure!
looks absolutely delectable
Technically correct, therefore, unquestionable.
That's the gourmet version with all that stuff from the colonies.
Heat up the tea add milk. Break up the crisps in a bowl with the tuna. Give a good mix add some olive oil. Season to liking and is just fine.
Pringles are from Belgium I think
A lot of people don't know this but manifest destiny also covers delicious, salty snacks from the rest of the world.
I'd eat that! I love tuna!
No, that's fish and crisps.
