as for the beer, i did find a couple of brands that i'd never heard of before that was quite nice. the stuff the majority of you guys drink however is horrible, $7 for a piss water coors lite at a hockey game - wut.

As for the beers, I don't drink the big-name brands. Small (micro) breweries are teh way to go.
Someday I'm going to Europe to eat cheese and drink beer only!

supermarket - i don't know what the american is, like safeway or any other large store where you buy all your fooood. safeway had a deli, all crap.
and lamb how could i forget the lamb? irish lamb is the best in the world.
if you didn't have the kids now would be an excellent time to come over, with the pound and euro being pretty much worthless at the moment. pretty clear what you have to do i think... sell the kids and take a vacation in europe.

Trev, are you talking out your ass again? Sure sounds like it.
Where in the US are you talking about exactly?
i was in colorado and miami, neither had irish standard cheese or european standard beer.
don't blame me if you're used to crap.

I dunno about the beer, I don't drink much of that, but I'd rather not eat "cheese" that someone's grandma has been aging under her porch for the last five years.

And I don't mean "multicultural" like Los Angeles or Miami.
Supermarket delis just blow.

Come on... why you american and british people speak about things you don't know... ...food?! Do you really think that you folks know how to eat?
maybe did you learn it while running in the street? or were the waiters when bringing the bill?!
😀
if you want to eat: Italy guys! Just Italy! where eat is an art! pure art!
but remember wine instead of beer... have you ever saw Bacchus drink wine?
ok.. it was just a provocation ;-)
