    Rebecca, I’ve been watching your channel for years now and I know you’ve spoken about you/your family being Palestinian.I just want to say, sincerely, I’ve been thinking about you and your family this week. I have no words better than that to say because I don’t think there are any.

    I miss the UK! So many eg and egan options everywhere! Even at pubs and I miss jacket potatoes! The trick to decent coffee in the UK is AVOID all drip coffee. It is bad, bad bad bad. Get an Americano. That is the only option for good coffee! I love this travel series! I love the UK so much, my sister lived there for 4 years and I got to visit a bunch of times!

    • @bodegacatx

      @@bodegacatx yes! That is the hack to good American style coffee anywhere in Europe. If you are still there, give it a try and give us an update! I think my favorite thing about food places in the UK is that they look at you like you are mad if you ask if the rice is vegetarian, since most restaurants in the US cook rice in chicken stock, everywhere I ate there, did not cook their rice in chicken stock, same with soups. If a soup is a vegetable soup, it is vegetarian, if it is seafood it doesn’t have beef stock or chicken stock. Much easier to navigate menus.also, ALL of the halal or parve friendly gummies!!! So easy to spot the vegetarian gummy candy there.

    This had me laughing at the end! It's meant to be a tofu scramble in the sandwich (like scrambled eggs for breakfast with sausages/ketchup) but I was the exact same when I first bought it. But now I kind of love it because it's great when you want something filling and in the mood for 3 shades of beige plus ketchup, which is pretty much a standard British meal haha
