To clarify, by saying “paying for three burgers, but only getting one,” I was insinuating one burger at 5 Guys cost as much as three burgers anywhere else. They are quite expensive. That said, as far as burgers go, they are pretty good. At least they are in the states. Sorry you had a bad experience either way.

Yes our culture is quite different. We seem to get very patriotic about our food. And the places we went to school

We are not patriotic about food. We just enjoy eating it!
Most Scottish foods are traditional. Porridge, Smoked Kippers, Arbroath Smokies, Black Pudding, Lorne Sausage, Smoked Bacon, Fried Bread, Plain & Pan Bread, Morning Rolls with butter and bacon, Tattie Scone, Scotch Broth, Lentil Soup. Cock-a-Leekie Soup, Cullen Skink, Haggis Neeps & Tatties, Mince & Tatties, Stovies, Scottish Salmon, Aberdeen Angus Beef, Highland Beef, Shortbread, Steak Pie, Mince Pie, Mussels, Buckies. Scotch Egg, Cranachan, Clootie Dumpling, Ross’s Edinburgh Rock (I was a Sugar Boiler at Ross’s in my youth and used to make this as well as other tradition Scottish sweeties) Tunnocks Tea Cakes and Caramel Wafers, Oat Cakes, Bannocks, Scottish Cheddar & Cheeses, Raspberry - Strawberry - Blackcurrant & Bramble Jams, Lemon Curd, Orange Marmalade I am barely scratching the surface here. Then there’s the drinks but I don’t have time to list them.
Na! we are not patriotic about food we just like to brag aboot it. Like who eats a sheep’s stomach, better yet who on earth is brave enough to eat a sheep’s stomach and enjoys doing it.

Louisiana brings food pride to new levels. I’m from North Louisiana but even I won’t eat Gumbo outside of Louisiana. The further south you go the food pride get a little stronger as the people in South Louisiana set a line that even North Louisiana is out of the zone of getting “Louisiana dishes”.
Fats Domino even restricted his touring because he didn’t like the food outside of New Orleans…
Although he was no longer a pop sensation, Mr. Domino continued to perform worldwide and appeared for 10 months a year in Las Vegas in the mid-1960s. On tour, he would bring his own pots and pans so he could cook.
His life on the road ended in the early 1980s, when he decided that he did not want to leave New Orleans, saying it was the only place where he liked the food.

Does it taste like goat’s intestine, then cool, I like it!! Don’t like cleaning it though. 
We’re a bit of both.
Don’t know never had goat. I tried tripe and onions once, never again. It was a favourite of my fathers but it smelt terrible when being cooked. Thankfully dad didn’t eat it too often. I think mum & dad were the only ones in the house that did maybe some of my older brothers and sisters did too. Back in the war years and for many years after some foods were pretty scarce and rationed so you had to make do with what was available. I quite like a bit of cooked cows tongue. Luckily for us mum was quite a resourceful cook.

I remember it needs cleaned very well. Sometime we buy it cleaned and clean it even more. My father does it and mother cooks it but we ate it on only a very few occasions. Sometimes we buy, and the curry will be very tasty! You don’t have to smell it raw as it is cleaned and well prepared. Wonder when will I have the chance again!

I thought I add link to Get-Go burger (tried it last week, big, and really good, and no comparison between the above ones!) but unfortunately the link is not working.
