American style pancakes? The ones we've been making in Scotland for longer than the US has been a country. 😂
I know, it actually says 'Scotch pancakes' on the packaging.
The sort of pancakes that the Queen gave her own recipe for to President Eisenhower as he liked them so much.
Manchester is not the second largest city that is birmingham
Scottish people have been making pancakes like this for centuries !! They are NOT "American style" !! Look what it said on the packaging !
American bread would be classed as CAKE in the UK because of the amount of sugar in it !
BIRMINGHAM is the UK's 2nd largest city NOT Manchester !!
The allergies in UK during summer time is grass and plant pollen that's all it is pal
Those weren’t ‘American pancakes’, they were Scottish/Scotch pancakes, that are often eaten cold and buttered or with some jam on them. Even if they are fresh off the girdle (and yes girdle is the correct word for the cast flat skillet that Scottish pancakes etc are cooked on), they are more likely to be served as something that can be picked up and eaten…or my Mum used to fry them as part of a Scottish breakfast.
The vast majority of large shops have air conditioning, the ones that don’t are the ones that are in old buildings that for one reason or another they were unable to get planning permission to install air conditioning. It’s only individual homes that air conditioning is uncommon in.
The ‘allergies’ that she is on about are genuine allergic reactions to various types of pollen that are commonly known as Hay Fever in the UK and not due to either poor air quality or toxins in the air/environment.
Not sure where she’s buying her food from, but fresh groceries will last a lot longer than 2 days, as will chicken as long as it’s refrigerated.
As for the sparkling water, which apparently has artificial sweeteners added, all I can tell you is she’s absolutely wrong. I guess she saw some with flavourings and sweeteners and assumed that’s all we had? Bizarre comment.
Another great video, I think you would fit in over here. You are thoughtful and chilled. Cheers bud.
Much love and appreciation 🤜🤛
We eat all kinds of pancakes and crepes in the uk. You can get fresh ones all over the place, pancake tuesday is a massive holiday. Theres also bakeries everywhere. Those packaged ones are great with just some butter or even nutella or biscoff.
She is totally wrong about food going off in a couple of days. If you store it right it lasts a week or more. She is totally wrong about sparkling water. You can get Sparkling water without any type of sweetener. natural or man made and with out flavourings EVERYWHERE. from corner shops to major supermarkets for more choice.
Well of course food goes off faster, it's not pumped full of preservatives, chemicals and additives! No the bread has not had any sugar removed. Your bread has a ton of sugar added and has on occasions, been legally labelled cake in the UK and Ireland.
Her allergies are pollen allergies. Not because of human created air pollution. She has them prescisly because in the UK you get out into the countryside and a lot closer to nature.
My own family has lived out in a small, rural Lincolnshire village for over the last 40 years and my parents will frequently go for walks in the woods. It is lovely fresh air in terms of being free of the air pollutants you get in big cities and yet my mum would get streaming eyes, sneezing fits etc and they found out she had an allergy to pollen which was agrivated every time she went for a walk from their house to the next village which involves walking past all the fields and wild flowers and grass.
You can even open a window in summer to try and get a cooling breeze into the house and you instantly can smell the heavy scent of pollen in the air coming from the nearby fields of rapeseed. It is a very distinct smell.
It's the grass pollen that gets me. I'm OK with flower and tree pollen.
Allergies are less of a problem here. On rainy days, the pollen is washed out of the air.
Most peoples Hayfever gets worse when it rains.
What actually happens is the dust and pollen particles that are floating in the sky get saturated by water vapour, the particles get heavier and heavier with water then fall as rain drops. So the pollen and dust particles act like a sponge and soak up the water vapour.
Local based honey helps combat hay fever.
That girl / woman says a lot of things (not everything!) that sound odd to me, but then I am a much older English woman living in London (in the South East part of 'Greater London' - which is further out from the City, where most tourists usually visit!!)
As I haven't been to Northern England,
or many places in the UK, apart from holidays in East Anglia (to the east of England), and to parts of the West Country, in Devon, and Cornwall.
Plus the South coast, in East Sussex, and in the county of Kent (to the South East of Greater London, further out than where I live, though where I live leads to the border between Outer London and Kent).
I've rarely, if ever, felt unsafe whenever, and / or wherever I've travelled, both in towns and in the countryside...
Those pancakes she shows / talks about, are called 'Scotch Pancakes' and are different from the usual thin crepes-like pancakes most people make from fresh at home on 'Pancake Day' and eaten with lemon juice and sugar
...sometimes with strawberries, or maple syrup etc.
People are generally friendly and helpful - especially toward American tourists (if they are themselves friendly and not too loud or obnoxious) as being polite costs nothing, and those people who might be grumpy or unhelpful, or even rude at times, can be found everywhere
...people are people, and not everyone can smile and be 'jolly' all of the time.
I hope this is helpful to you.
😏🏴🙂🇬🇧🤔🖖
Thank you 🤜🤛
Birmingham is the second biggest city in the UK
You're better off at the coast if you have allergies. Also the 'artificial' sweeteners tend to be sucrolose and stevia. Both are plant extracts!
Her allergies are called "hayfever" and are pollen related, itchy runny nose, itchy scratchy eyes. All can be treated relatively easily. In my case I have a 3 pronged attack, antihistamine tablets eases the itching, beconase nasal spray stops the runny nose, aqueous eye drops helps the itchy eyes. All can be brought from a local chemist or local supermarket. If it wasn't for those 3, I'd be locked up in my house, windows and curtains closed. But with those 3, I'm out and about, I play golf, im sitting in the pubs beer garden, i live a normal life.
Also when we have a wet or damp spring, that prevents early pollination, so when the warm weather eventually comes, everything pollonates at once, flowers, grass, trees. Making us hay-fever sufferers suffer 3 fold.
id also add, when she made that vid, the uk had the wettest spring and early summer on record, so when the decent weather arrived, we hayfever sufferers, got smashed to fucking bits.
The sugar tax was why we changed from real sugar to the horrible substitute stuff. Sugar is very expensive for companies to use now.
We've ruined soft drinks by making them with sweetners
I was shocked that she expected our 2nd biggest city to be like a small town in the US. Why wouldn't Manchester have a similar demand to new york, especially if she expected it in London?
Those "American"pancakes are Scotch pancakes!!! Much nicer and been around a lot longer! 🏴
I was shocked by the Pixies Riding Unicorn 🦄 on a Wednesday afternoon. I mean afternoon, everyone knows its Friday before noon .
Thank you for sending some heat from your heatwave to UK I requested the other day. Received today, it is now 28c. Us Brits are moaning already, so I have to return some heat back to you. It's back to normal 20c tomorrow. Be real interesting how you would fare in UK with your allergies.
😂😂😂 stay cool 🔥🔥🔥🔥
She isn’t lying about the allergies. I wonder if it’s because it’s such a damp environment that mildew is everywhere. That would explain the overwhelming smell of sourness.
It's probably more to do with us having more natural green space, and being closer to parks and farms than most people in the USA.
ive never really heard anyone complain about allergies in the uk, thats always been an american thing to me like peanut allergies since they have more issues with that too and salmonella from chicken is way more common in the usa too because they dont vaccinate their chickens.
no, its pollen realted, we call it hayfever. hayfever gets really bad for us when we have a wet or damp spring/early summer, as damp n wet spring halts the early pollonation, so when the warmer weather comes, everything pollanates at once, a real fuck off for us hayfever sufferers.
@@WookieWarriorz You've never heard of anyone in the UK complaining about Hayfever? Where do you live cause I'm moving tomorrow.
Sparkling water is just that unless it’s flavoured,as for the UK getting warmer she is wrong we don’t get long hot summers anymore and most large cities has their share of open spaces to enjoy nature
Doesn't any US visitor look into anything about the country they're going to go to? It's all out there on the Internet so why wouldn't you, or is it that seemingly so many rely on individual opinions like this.
That's birds about 19 but looks like Betty white 😄
Love the tee brudda....hadouken 😂🔥🐲 p.s I gots da hay-fever too bawse ✊🏻
🤜🤛🔥🔥🔥
To me, American style pancakes just look disgusting. It must be like eating a coaster. She should try freshly made British pancakes.
We have traditional pancakes in the UK which look identical to American pancakes though, like Scotch pancakes, Crempog or Drop Scones, I guess by British pancakes you mean French Crepes? Thick pancakes are light, fluffy and delicious when made well
I don't really eat pancakes if anything i go for waffles but thats even rare for me.
