'‘Amateur historians have often credited Thomas Jefferson with introducing macaroni and cheese to the United States. That probably isn’t true, but he did help make it popular. He dined on the dish during his time in Italy; he loved it so much that he brought a pasta maker back with him to the U.S. and served the dish at the White House in 1802. Mary Rudolph, who took over hostess duties at the White House when Jefferson’s wife died, included a macaroni recipe that with Parmesan cheese in her 1824 cookbook, “The Virginia Housewife.”’

Trying to find out when Mac and Cheese became big in Scotland but it keeps jut referring me to the macaroni pie

big Italian contingent in Scotland isn’t there…? must be from that…

Oh no, I do this. what’s my alternative though? Always thought “gig” sounds well Clarkson and concert sounds square af.

I guess could have been the Tony Macaroni

I’ve always thought ‘show’ sounds like you’re off to see a West End Musical :musical_note: :star:

We always had a Sixth Form May Ball, but by the time my brother graduated 2 years after me they’d taken to calling it “prom”. Unforgivable.

Like you don’t say spag and bol.

Lots of English people are saying mayonnaise instead of mayonnaise.

Pancakes being on breakfast menus and all. Pancakes are grim anyway.

I don’t know why I’m so Partridge about all of this, it properly bothers me. Maybe It’s to do with the Iraq war.

As long as we agree ‘mac n cheese’ is a new American thing and it was macaroni cheese then that’s cool

You know that grammatical thing they do where they say ‘man, Green Day sucks, Radiohead is the best band’? I’ve know idea if it’s creeping in over here, but I don’t like it much.
