[Food] Why's everyone started saying "mac AND cheese" ?

[Tricky Dicky]

The proliferation of US TV, of course.

Forget the special relationship, its about time we cut all ties with Trumpland to save our language and heritage

It's always been just Macaroni Cheese innit

It really grates on me (No Pun intended).

I also f**king hate 'Slaw'. burger and fries with a side of 'Slaw'. F**k Off.

I serve at Hawaiian Mac Salad as a side dish in my restaurant and despite not having any cheese anywhere in it all our American customers insist on calling it Mac and Cheese as if they are incapable of calling anything with Macaroni in it anything else.

You got it!

Why the **** are kids in our primary schools calling 'noughts and crosses' 'tic-tac-toe'?

Because of the television their teachers watched as children.

It's almost as irritating as people starting every sentence with the word 'so', or when you tell them something and they say 'oh really?'

Yes f***ing really! I just told you didn't I?

 

[Lush]

Two fewer syllables. Pure laziness. They probably buy it as a ready meal too.

I thought the thread was about Big Mac and cheese as I have never heard macaroni cheese referred to as that. I love Macaroni Cheese if it is made properly with strong cheese as wife insists that it isnt the quantity of the cheese that gives it the taste but the strength of the cheese used.

It's the same tossers saying "Can I get" when ordering coffee when they mean "Please may I have." And the same deep pit of Hell awaits them all.

That annoyed me and my answer was always yes of course you can. Then walk away and serve somebody else and wait for them to actually ask for it.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

'Tekkers' and 'Mac and Cheese' Are there two more irritating phrases?

Macaroni cheese never used to anything other than your nan gave you when you went round her's. Just like no self-respecting food outlet would demean itself by putting fish finger sarnie on its menu, no matter how ironically.

 

[wunt be druv]

Anybody saying "Mac an' cheese" and "Slaw" should be shot! End of,no excuses.

my nan wouldn't have 'foreign' food in her house, we were given LARD round her's

 

[Albion my Albion]

I remember seeing it written that way at this restaurant in the States for the first time.

My nan was quite enlightened on that score. On special occasions we'd go round her's and be treated to her specially-prepared French cuisine.
Still get quite misty-eyed when I recall my dear old nan's L'ARD.
