It's a southern food. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biscuits_and_gravy
One of those things that really depends on who makes it. It can be either really good or wierd tasting.
And that pic does not look like what I ever had.

Breakfast food eh... I'll stick to eggs and bacon.

Southern food is different from anywheres else I find. Even in Canada we don't get most Southern foods.

Not even close. One of the weirdest things I've ever eaten.
That, my friend is country gravy. Blue is right. IF made properly its tasty as hell. If not, its a flavorless mush. Safe bet is on brown gravy.

Also, Port of Subs>Subway
As far as cold subs go. Otherwise it's Charley's grilled Subs for me.

There's some more for you yanks.


We call a cookie a cookie a Scone a scone a bisquit a bisquit a sausage a sausage and a hotdog a hot dog.

Wiener is not used unless on purpose a amusing way for a joke or a food chain uses it to be funny and sell the product.




Then what about the biscuit shops in america? They are called scones over here. You know, those bread things you put butter on?

I thought all types of biscuits are called cookies? For example, we have rich tea and digestive biscuits. Don't americans just call them all cookies?

I've never heard of them over there.

Speaking of which, americans don't even know what a sausage roll is for christ sake.

Don't you call sweets - candy?

The Biscuits you have are what we call English Biscuits.
Sausage rolls look nasty as shit but being this country has every food imaginable from every other country in the world I am sure you can find them.

Scones here look like triangle shaped and hollow and normally goes best with honey butter.
But in terms of Sweets or "Sweeties" yeah it's normally called candy.


England needs a Philly cheesesteak sandwich oh damn now that will kill you but holy fuck is it good...no wonder philly is one of the fattest cities.

And at the NY pizza boy..any Deli beats any fast food sub place.

^Ha, I believe we are now "fattest", so one of those Philly steaks sounds great to me. ;)

Candy is another one that's better than "sweets" IMO, but both work pretty well.
