I only found out recently that the UK actually has more varieties of local cheese than France, the country that is usually known for its types of cheese.

Sometimes the food might be different from what we as Americans know, but just give it a try! And Cornish Clotted Cream...oh my, that is the really thick one, it is just out of this world!!<br />But hey, don't ask me to eat haggis, that is where I draw the line! LOL.<br />And don't worry, all Brits think that Americans are odd but most of them really like us, they just don't like to admit it!

I found...Glad you could find what you needed there! I found eating tough in England. The food was so different and I'm such a picky eater. One thing that got me was the habit there of pouring cream on dessert. They'd have this piece of pie and take out this cream (thick version of what you put in coffee, basically) and pour it over it. I asked if they'd ever tried whipped cream. They thought I was odd!Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-85716247938630508622014-10-01T18:39:43.645-04:002014-10-01T18:39:43.645-04:00Ha!

It is just amusing to me that I have to remember not to say "bathroom" EVERY time I am in England!

So funny to me that we will sometimes have the same word, but spell it differently! <br />I bet that couple loved your gluten free cooking.
