I would bet it’s based on distances between geographic centers, which is why China to North Korea is only warm despite sharing a border.
Are they insulting English foods or did I just not know how to spell any of the variations of Great Britain?
You did not know how to spell “United Kingdom”.

I can spell it, I just didn’t get past Great Britain to remember it…
I was digging through an old hard drive looking for a tax document and I found a bunch of photos from 10 years ago when I worked in a butcher shop. We ran a monthly CSA program and all of the meat trim would go towards charcuterie and sausage.
So rewarding to make this stuff. Cutting into it after a 5 day prep/cooking process was the same feeling as opening a present.

Probably not the best thread for this, but I’ll just ask here anyway.
What do you think when you see “California-style burrito” on a menu?
-contains fries
-contains some potato in filling, but those potatoes are not fries
-contains potatoes, may or may not be fries
Has to include fries. (Having problems getting your pole up?)
Nah, I generally don’t do poles. I prefer when people respond. Often they will throw in useful info.
This, but it’s also going to be a function of where I am. It’s definitely this if I’m in California, but if I’m in, say, Tennessee, I’m going to double check WTF they think they mean.

At least 25% they actually mean mission burrito.
I’m so confused. I’ve eaten hundreds of burritos, almost all of them in Cali, and I’ve never had a burrito with fries.
I don’t think I’ve seen a California style burrito outside the west coast. I mean the actual burrito. I’ve probably seen it listed on a menu somewhere.
You have to specifically order the California-style burrito. If you got to a Mexican place and order a carne asada burrito, for example, it won’t have fries unless you specify California-style.
How about in San Diego specifically? Cali-style is mainly a San Diego thing, even if it exists outside of there to a lesser degree.
Yeah, I can see that. Thanks to Chipotle, for a long time I thought Mission-style was just the standard default burrito you would expect if nothing else was specified. Best common burrito style, imo.
Even in SD, you would have to specify Cali-style if you wanted the fries, right? If you just order a burrito without saying that, I’d have assumed it would come without fries.
