Things I have learned in London:
-If a thing of bread says the slices are "extra thick" chances are that they in fact are VERY thick.
-Cooler Ranch Doritos here are called "Cool Original"...I'm not sure why.
-Maple Syrup is a very rare thing here. Apparently they haven't quite put together that pancakes+syrup=heaven. My French flatmate knew, as did my German friend. Why haven't the English picked up on it yet?
-We say "counter clockwise" they say "anti clockwise".
-"Minced meat" is the same thing as "ground meat".
-Peanut butter here really isn't as good as the peanut butter at home.
-Cadbury's chocolate is amazing. I never knew that it was actually possible to eat a bar of chocolate and not feel like you just ate really thick paper. I blame you, Hershey's.
-Bangers and Mash=Meat (usually sausage)and potatoes.
I don't really have the energy for a real update now (I'm so tired!) but I'll post one eventually.

...not trying to burst your chocolate bubble, but wasn't Cadbury's chocolate just pulled from lots of shelves because it had nasty stuff in it..the ones that were made in CHina.Please check your labels...
It was, but from what I've been reading the Cadbury's chocolate made in China isn't sold in the UK--just Asia and Australia, I think...
