Tyler (repeatedly): "USA is freaking gigantic"
Australians: **laugh** same size, mate..we just don't need to tell everyone every 5 minutes.
@@jlc7841What? Australia's a small island? Near BRITAIN?!! What's lacking in US education? Don't they have world map wall charts in school?
@@jlc7841That's hilarious! And kind of mindblowing. I (Aussie) was told by an American I sounded like Peter Lawford. 😂😂😂
USA is freaking gigantic like the space in Tyler's head. I can see a glint in his eye though the hole in the back of his head where his brain used to be.
@@jlc7841 Not just USA! Relatives from 'down south' (Essex, I think?) were at a friend's wedding that I attended. I spent a lot of time assuming they were from Australia from their accents. Is that a throwback from when so many criminals from London were deported to Oz and the Southern accent somehow left its mark?
@@Rhianalanthula No because in the mad crazy insane US they think that only they exist. They don't even know that an Englishman founded their Harvard University!
You don't have Cheddar. You have something pretending to be cheese.

We can stand in a supermarket queue for ages but if two or three people behind you only have four or five items , we will tell them to go in front of us in the queue. I am in my 60's and , as far as I know, it has always been that way
American married to British man, healthcare so much better and no one files bankruptcy or gets unbelievable bills. English breakfast are freakin awesome.
I also bet you never have to think about plugging in a washing machine on a circuit either ;-)

The NHS is failing at the moment and that’s an understatement it needs a complete overhaul to be run properly and stop losing money. Other countries have social healthcare but do it far far better now than we do, we should be looking at their way of doing things so we have an NHS that works.
@@jemmajames6719fr wait times be 1 - 8 years
so is the Scottish breakfast you get Tattie Scone you can't have one without that, as for the bacon have you ever had Belfast Ham ( bacon) it's amazing it can be hard to find I get mine out of a butchers if you look around I'm sure you will find it some where.
I had a total left hip replacement last October ( 2023 ), at a private hospital. I`m booked in to have my righ hip replaced, again at the same private hospital on the 17th of May this year ( 2024 ). The NHS is paying for both operations, only they are un-loading some of the backlog of people waiting to have medical precedures and care on the NHS by using private facilities to perform them.
It recently popped into my head, wondering how much the operation costs, so I looked it up. At the Private Hospital, X, ( in which I had the op ) : total hip replacements are available, starting at a cost of £15, 538. Of course this means that I`m having over £31,000 worth of surgery performed without a penny coming directly out of my pocket.
I dread to think of how much operations such as these would cost in the `States.
I agree with you vis-a-vis English breakfasts.
We don’t say sharp cheddar, it’s called extra mature cheddar. Cheddar is a place in England that has caves where the cheese is matured for a long long time.
Some of it in the Cheddar caves, which maintains the perfect temperature for maturing cheese. And you can buy it there - and online I presume.
Regarding public transport you can get to anywhere in the UK from your home by bus/train and also to anywhere in Europe. There is no need to own a car here. The higher voltage here means things like kettles boil in next to no time at all and we can run several appliances at the same time without a problem and each plug has an on/off switch with a fuse inside that can be easily replaced by opening the plug. Also our tax system beats the US hands down, no need to file your taxes yourself. The Gov( HMRC )takes it directly from your wages so we don't even have to think about it.
Traditional Cheddar is made in Somerset, UK. The proper UNESCO protected Cheddar is made in Cheddar, Cheddar Gorge is worth a visit.
Sharp cheddar is extra mature cheddar.
I've been told by American friends it that our UK cheddar cheese is far stronger than what you get in the US.
I love our strong cheese
Ours is the real deal and Cheddar also invented & originated here from Cheddar gorge. How can other so-called Cheddars be a Cheddar cheese. They’re pale and tasteless imitations.
Yep it is cheese that bites you back. the stronger the better. I like a nice stilton.
American cheese is just a plastic concoction.
Cheddar long ago lent it's name to a particular way of producing cheese. A variety as it is called. That is why there are so many different cheddars and why Americans think they have some.
Very few of our British cheeses can only be produced in restricted areas, thus you can get Leicester cheese made in Aberdeen, Wenslydale made in Kent or even better how about the famous French cheese Brie, made in Somerset.
Also since we are no longer in the EU there is no longer any law stopping regional food names being used for food produced in foreign countries. While we were in the EU regional named foods had to be produced there. Food labels stating a region (like Norfolk) would also have to say where the food items were produced. So there was no possibility of finding Norfolk Beef on a supermarket shelf, if the cattle grew up in Bulgaria. Since Norfolk Beef is not a variety but a region of production.
Cheeses are of course different since the name now refers to a variety not a region of production.
Somerset Brie is the region of production and the variety in one name Cheddar Gorge Cheddar is therefore....😊

A proper roast is how we refer in the UK to a proper roast dinner. You can have one anytime but they are traditionally held on a Sunday. Hence the other common phrase we use: "Sunday Roast". You can have kind any meat such as Beef, Pork, Lamb, Chicken etc.
We just call it a roast dinner in my house because i work shifts which my partner really hates because i often have to work weekends so i often do a 12 hour shift on a Sunday which means she has to miss out on her Sunday roast dinner so we reschedule our Sunday roast dinner to a time when I'm days off which is usually mid week such as a Wednesday or Thursday.
Years ago my daughter dated a boy who was from the UK (immagrated with his family to Canada) He called her up and told her they were having roast that night and she was invited to join them. Oh and Mum was making a special pudding. Daughter comes home and I ask her how dinner was. She replies - It was great but it wasn't roast, it was chicken and dessert wasn't pudding at all, it was some kind of cake. She was expecting roast beef with creamy type custard. 😊
@@joykoski7111 Have to be able to differentiate between the "midweek" roast and the "sunday" roast.... Largely the same thing but we Brits tend to go 'all out' on the sunday roast or "Christmas Roast"..... called a 'roast' incidentally, because the meat, and potato's (and sometimes vegetables) are roasted (even if it is Chicken it is still roasted).... What I have found on my travels to be the largest difference really is our over-indulgent use of 'Proper' Gravy made from roux and the juices of the meat.... Very rarely in any other country do they server a roast dinner with Proper gravy. (or proper amounts of it, A drizzle is NOT, I say NOT enough).
A "proper" roast has all the components (meat potatoes and other veg) in the roasting tin. It was traditionally served on Sunday as it could be prepared the day before and the servants got most of Sunday off.
All dairy products in the UK are great in taste because farm animals are grass fed, not grain.
And why do we have such a lot of grass in the UK to feed our farm animals?
Yes ,that's right ,plenty of rain .
That stuff that Americans warn each other about, then are terribly amazed at the beauty of the grass, trees and flowers.
ROAST, lamb, meat, roast potatoes, yorkshire pudding, sprouts, cabbage, carrots, stuffing, gravy, mint sause, brown sause. Or a combination of all. Apple crumble and custard for afters.
Lose the sprouts and that sounds heavenly 😊
mint sause, brown sause ?

There is a Scottish version of a cooked breakfast. And one from Northern Ireland.
Scottish cooked breakfast would usually swap out the pork link sausages for square sausage. Would also potentially have haggis, white pudding or fruit pudding. And we'd have potato scones.
An ulster fry would have soda bread, as well as having a potato farl.
Wales has one too.
And Wales - includes laverbread, Welsh bacon and cockles. As usual, any ingredient is optional and regional differences vary what's in the Full Breakfast (lamb's kidneys and liver are notable ones).
Each of the countries has their own version of what "breakfast". Usually made to include traditional local foods.
Yeah but they are inferior copies.
I went to Cheddar Gorge a few years ago, and saw vast quantities of cheese maturing in the caves. Oh my sweet Mother Earth. All... that... cheeeeeese. I was mesmerised at the sight of shelf after shelf of dairy-based temptation. The smell was like the cheese section of my fridge multiplied million-fold. Standing there under the hypnotic spell of this wondrous foodstuff, I soon found my spirit gravitating towards the cheese, ready to consume every last gram of the stuff. My soul was singing the most euphoric arias the opera world has produced, finishing with a heavenly rendition of Handel's 'Hallelujah Chorus'.
Once seen by a cheese-lover like me, it's never forgotten. My heart is still in the caves, swooning away at Cheddar Mountain.
Here's one sport that came from UK and taken up by the USA: Baseball. The game evolved from older bat-and-ball games already being played in England by the mid-18th century. This game was brought by immigrants to North America, where the modern version developed. By the late 19th century, baseball was widely recognized as the national sport of the United States.
We do rounders
American football! Although developed in USA it originated from rugby and football (soccer) and even used the rules of football (soccer).
Ice hockey, like baseball evolved from the bat-and-ball games of the 18th century.
Golf, obviously.
TBH most sports originated in the UK and took root in USA via the colonies; the notable exceptions are basketball and la crosse. Netball was British though, being a misunderstanding of the rules of basketball but first played in Dartford, Kent. Motorbike racing originated on the Isle of Man. Bobsleigh is attributed to English tourists whilst in Switzerland. An awful lot of sports (including horse racing) are from ancient Greece, but the UK can claim greyhound racing (coursing).
The UK has had fingers in the origins of many pies, even when they were from other countries in the Empire.
France can have pool/billiards and automotive racing (shared with Germany for inventing cars), and the Dutch/German/Swiss can have 10-pin bowling (via nine-pin bowling) - sneaked them into the USA via their own colonies.
@@p_ct8953exactly.
@@p_ct8953 and netball 😊
@@p_ct8953 Rounders is a different game altogether, Baseball is Baseball, and there is quite a bit of literature that confirms it was developed in England.
Hasn't Tyler already covered roast dinners in several other videos?
Must be great having the memory of a goldfish as everything is new even after the millionth time.
I haven't watched it yet but if he asks what a roast potato is or is astonished by a Yorkshire pudding, I am going to lose my sh*t 🤨
Yes, a total grifter, and he is increasing his annoying mannerisms which helps me feel justified in pouring scorn on him. A total faker.
Yeah he has but in America Roast can also mean to roast someone. They had shows x where famous actors would get "roasted". It didn't actually say it was a roast dinner. I think sometimes that why I think he struggles more with the Reddit lists because there's no pictures included so he can't see what is being talked of.
Everything this is new to Tyler he has the attention span and a memory of a gold fish. It also depends on which Tyler he is today as he has 4 different pages each with a different surname.
@@nolajoy7759hearing him say he is proud of American education is laughable. The man is constantly surprised about everything even though he has done several videos of the same things over and over . Sharp Cheddar comes from cheddar in England so the original .
Roast meat with veg, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, mashed potato, real meat gravy. Or a variety of this and other additions
Don't mind if I do...and so easy to make as well. You have to make the gravy in the roasting dish though to get all the meat juices and bits of roast potatoes (makes cleaning the roasting dish easier too).
How can you leave out roast parsnips?!?
@@rocketrabble6737 yes and parsnips. My daughter wouldn’t let me leave them out I did say a variety of other additions.
@@suefinnegan6185 My attitude towards them means I have to mention them. Christmas 2022 I ate Christmas dinner without them; I am just beginning to get over it, but it is a long drawn out process!
Big one is how much work leave we get. I get 30 days leave a year and the option of an extra 12 days (one a month) Flexi leave if I work extra hours and accrue enough hours.
Breakfast. It wasn’t until I visited the USA that I was offered pancakes and French Toast with maple syrup. Pancakes for us in the UK pancakes are a dessert item and French toast would have ketchup not maple syrup. I do like US bacon, crispy & well done.
In Wales we have Lava Bread (a seaweed concoction), Scotland has haggis patties and white pudding. Ireland has soda bread and potato cakes.
Sharp Cheddar. Cheddar is a village in Somerset west England. Sharp Cheddar is Extra Mature Cheddar, cheddaring is a process discovered in the village of Cheddar.
I think that intercountry transit refers to travel by train to Paris, Brussels & Amsterdam from London or coach travel to Europe by either ferry or channel tunnel.
Actually I live in Scotland and grew up in the 70's with Scottish parents and we had sweet French Toast made with a hint of cinnamon and eaten with raspberry jam. Now I've added some vanilla essence to and have it with soft fruit. I was actually surprised when I had savoury French toast for the first time.

Typically a UK Degree is 3 years, Masters is 1 year, and a PhD 3 years. The UK specialises it's education from 15yo when you chose GCSES, then A-Levels. When you go to University to Study for example Computer studies, you've already got relevant A-levels to build upon and you start on day 1 doing nothing but computer related learning, after year 1 you then specialise that even more to a particular field like Databases, Web design UI or Programming etc. and in your final year you are just doing the 1-3 specific things you like.
A US student with a 4 year computer studies degree has about a year's worth of specialist education, compared to a UK student that in that same 4 year period either has completed a Masters or has 3 years specialist education and 1 years work experience doing the job. The US student is much more well rounded, but employers don't care if you can recite Hamlet, they want to know that they can put you to work doing the thing they are paying you for.
Roast... full roast dinner with all the trimmings. Gorgeous.
Roast meat with trimmings and veg. Beef with Yorkshire Puddings, Pork with Apple sauce and stuffing, Lamb with mint sauce and chicken/Turkey with sage and onion stuffing all with Roast potatoes, and at least 2 veg.

Sharp cheddar should definitely be better in the UK.
Since the origins of Cheddar is in a village named Cheddar in Somerset.
Yes UK and Europe have 220-220V whilst US have 110-120V.

Tyler is baffled by the word "roast." He couldn't even understand what "roasted potatoes" were...
Tyler you are a hustler.
You have covered all these subjects before on other videos. Do you really need to refresh your very average brain yet again?

Just look up a ‘Sunday roast dinner’ 😉
Cricket, Baseball, Golf were invented in the UK
Don’t forget we gave the world the modern version of football, hockey, table tennis, rugby and tennis!
The first post you read out is definitely written by an American. Theatre the person wrote theater, we called Sharp cheddar mature (Wisconson has a cheese castle near the boarder to Illonois, that has true British cheese imported). A roast is kinda like your thanksgiving meal, but it's for a Sunday.

A roast is a meal involving roast meat with vegetables. It's a traditional Sunday dinner.
Roast what? He didn't know what was meant by having a roast, but in the US they always say they're having barbeque. Does he also ask barbequed what?
Sunday roast is simple enough to try Tyler. The meat is just whatever you want, beef is common, I'd cook it low and slow. I do 150°C for at least 3 hours.
Do the veg however you like. I steam them personally.
Roast potatoes, cut into reasonable sized chunks, and I do a 3 part profess, boil until soft, shallow/air fry until crispy, then surround the meat for the last 20 minutes.
Make your own stuffing balls, don't just buy mix from the shop.
Yorkshire puddings: 70g plain flour, 100ml milk, 2 eggs, mix well. This will fill 8 equal spots on your muffin tray. Adjust values accordingly to make more and use Google to adjust for freedom units.
Gravy, I would suggest getting the good stuff. Look for Bisto in UK sections of the supermarket if it has one and mic according to instructions on the back. Bisto is imported into Australia so I reckon you'll find it in the US too. Pour over EVERYTHING.
Enjoy British Sunday roast. You can definitely do more than this, but this is a good start that doesn't take too much effort. Give it a whirl, you'll want to make it part of your weekly meal rotation in the family 👍

A roast dinner , meaning a large cooked meat with vegetables gravy and roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding or various accoplimants

Best advice is that you undertake an advanced reading program
to better educate yourself.
Garden an area of grass and or flowers, ornamental plants and or shrubs.
Yard an area of ground cleared for use as a work area. Usually paved, cindered, tarmaced or clay.
ie a builders yard. A junk yard, a back yard; a small area at the back of a house surrounded by high walls usually tiled. In older times the outdoor toilet would be placed off the yard as would a storage shed and the rubbish bin. If any plantlife existed there it was either because the yard was not being regularly washed down or were grown deliberately in planters or tubs.
We cannot understand how Americans can call a garden a yard since it clearly is not an area cleared for walking or working on. Gardens are places to enjoy or play in not to work in since the grass would be destroyed leaving only hard mud.
In Northern Ireland we have a breakfast called "The Ulster Fry" contains both fried potatoe and soda bread, 2 rashers of bacon, 2 sausages, 2 eggs, beans, tomatoes, mushrooms. Similar to an English breakfast but theres no soda bread in England (not sure if that's all of England). Roast dinner here I would class as roast beef, but thats my personal choice.

The health care is free on the point of delivery in the UK, however good luck to actually get an appointment! It also takes months to get somewhere with a referral from the GP to a specialist (except X-ray). I've asked for fertility related tests 2.5 years ago. Had some appointments months apart, some even had to be rescheduled as they put the wrong reason down in their system and the specialist just didn't have the time to spend 10 more minutes on my case than scheduled. She ensured me I'll have a new appointment shortly. That was last October. Still chasing for the new appointment.
There is a big difference between urgent treatment and elected healthcare, yours falls into the latter category and gets a much lower priority.

Vintage Cheddar cheese - number 7 in terms of strength (number 3 is mild). To be eaten with peeled Braeburn apples and oatcakes, and a glass of red wine.😂
To answer one of these questions, many parts of the UK and Ireland have an equivalent to the full English breakfast. Although most places will have a few differences between them. One of the best versions for many people is from Northern Ireland, but it's normally referred to as an Ulster Fry. What makes it stand out is including two specific types of bread, Soda bread and potato bread respectively.
NHS equilded by Scandinavia and Germany, all other pay some+ at point of use.ROI only 30% get full free at point of use

I have friends who are expats living in Spain (the husband has Spanish citizenship), but they come over here for NHS treatment. I'm assuming you pay tax for your healthcare?

In Northern Ireland they have an Ulster fry
thing we do better than everyone else : having a good country to live in
The Australian HC System is better.
Booking an appointment for the same day or the next is the norm, bloods and scans can be on the same day...and if not then the week and the staff aren't run off their feet and have a little more time to care for and assess patients.
You have spray can cheese ffs !
I am a Belgian, my girlfriend is from England, we met in Australia and now live in Ireland. Though there is a lot of overlap in those cultures, we do come across differences and draw comparisons every so often. There are certainly things I have to hand to the Brits, like theatre/acting, the queuing, comprehensive government websites, satire. A lot of the food related things are a matter of taste. A full English breakfast is nice, but my "so continental" bread rolls with salami do not deserve the side-eye. Cheese is up for debate, but please do not go claiming beer and chocolate, that gave me a twitchy eye 🤨
Yes, there are lots of wonderful things from Belgium, and of course the rest of Europe. Xx
I Nearly forgot the Yorkshire's. Criminal
@AndyCaley It certainly is criminal. I love Yorkshire pudding. The police are on the way to your house right now. Is this your oven sir? Lol.
@@SamanthaLewis-jm3xe I agree I am just about to look for something suitable to flay myself 😂😂😂👍
Thanksgiving dinner is the closest thing Americans get to a roast dinner.
It's still nothing like a proper one though
Most of these are Better than US but not necessarily anywhere else.
Our healthcare is good, probably rates top 10 but so many other countries have good systems, but Brits are taught ours is the Best in the same way that Americans are taught their (anything) is the Best.
Our Beers are good, but so are Belgium, German and Irish.
I'm not convinced by the Transport.
I am convinced by Gardens (Yards), they generally look good, can be useful and there is such variety.
And Pubs, I have not found an equivalent anywhere.
The transport system in most States in AUSTRALIA -
is efficient and of a high standard - even though we do not
have a High Speed Rail System -
AUSTRALIA being approximately the same size as mainland
USA - it is cheaper to travel by air whether interstate or regional
intrastate.
Also as awe have a low population and great distances - building
a national High Speed Rail network would NEVER have enough
patronage to recover the building and maintenance costs of
such a system.
City areas use very comfortable Air conditioned modern Electric
trains - Long Distance express use DIESEL locomotives from
the U.K

It's not that yard and garden mean the same thing, yards are a different thing to gardens, in British English. A yard is more of a workplace kind of thing.
US Cheddar is so weird. It's definitely cheese, it's not disgusting or anything, but I don't know why they call it cheddar. It's a different thing. Even the milk they start with is different. They feed the cows a corn based diet enough of the time that they specify "grass fed" when you're looking at meat or milk products like that's not what they're meant to eat lol. Then they use a non-flavourless dye on top of that. Entirely different product imo. Actual cheddar (As it is made, in the place Cheddar, in the UK) just doesn't exist in the US as far as I could see in my travels.
a quirk of britain......its possible to buy a TRAIN ticket from chester(eng) to dublin. or was in 1996, havent done it recently.
Each part of the uk have they own version of the cooked breakfast Tyler.
Queueing. Yes, very British. A few years ago, during local, localised water shortages, a few, 'incomers' were prosecuted for stealing excess amounts of water when others were queuing. They were selling it afterwards. NOT very British.
With double the voltage, my kettle boils in about a minute.
Same here, I hated living in the US without a kettle! I did get one in the end but it took so long to boil!
Kettles are not that common in the U.S
and in any event - it is the power -
measured in WATTS that makes the difference - NOT the voltage.
Also the USA does use 230 volts as a Standard - you are simply
well informed or educated on these matters
Helen Wood be better to study more and read outside of your
sphere of interest to obtain deep knowledge on a wide range
of subjects.
Best example of queuing was people lining up to pay respects to the Queen
7:28 should, of course, be 'Theatre' not "Theater"
In countries that have Taxpayer funded Health care / Universal Health care
there are minor differences in the way the system is implemented.
Regardless of that - What the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Inc.
borrows and spends on War - Leasing MILITARY Equipment -
bailing out BANKS and other CORPORATIONS - so much is diverted to these
causes that IF the funds were applied to Universal Healthcare - it could be the
best system in the world - with enough $$$ left over for Social housing for the
Homeless and those on Government benefits - Veterans and so on.
Also much of the land - approximately two thirds of the USA is owned
by the CROWN - and land taxes are PAID to the CROWN AUTHORITY -
which is the RENT paid by the occupiers on the land.
- Unless the one one the land possess an ALLODIAL Title -
which means they own the land ' outright '
