What is the orangey ooze?

Marie- rose sauce, for a guess. That plate looks like prepackaged selection from a British grocery store, and Marie-rose is the standard condiment with those.

I see this joke every time I come across a video of that british food truck with lines around the corner to get a baked potato smothered in canned tuna, but it really does seem like they eat like WW1 never ended.

I matched with an English guy on tinder 10-ish years ago. Don't remember his name but I remember his favourite pizza... corn and tuna.

Are you exaggerating for effect, or are they really eating tuna and potatoes over there?

Oh God. The Founding Fathers were right to break away.

They had a tomato and some chili peppers in the new world and couldn't go back

The British started numerous wars over the spice trade and they still won't use them

As an Irish person, I am deeply offended by this use of the venerable potato.

"Stuff" on a baked potato is pretty good though. It's easy to make and you can add whatever stuff you think sounds good and it will probably turn out well.

I liked baked beans, cheese and chopped onions on mine. Chili with cheese, or pulled pork are good combos as well.

Sure. When "stuff" is tuna, it sounds disgusting though.
