how much do these things usually cost?

In australia, the only thing really comparable is getting a fish pack from the fish and chips, 6 dim sims, 4 potato cakes, 2 flakes, large chips, onion rings, a salad and battered prawns, usually costs about 20 bucks.

America's fail version

post fail -.-

I paid around £6 for the one in the OP in Glasgow about 4 years ago.

It's not a UK-wide thing, nor even Scotland-wide, it's mainly in the Glasgow area.

>>5699414
That's pretty cheap from the looks of what you get. I'd probably pay at least £10 for that here. Probably more.

>>5699414
I'm going to have to make a pilgrimage to Glasgow.

>>5699478
4 years ago though. The place could be out of business.

........are these consumed by one person? these are like party trays, right?

>>5699388
Oh good lord. People should post prices with these.

goddamn i want to get drunk and a whole box like these now.

>>5699388
I want to go to there

>>5699377
what are those red things in the bottom right?

>>5699596

Tandoori chicken.

>>5699600
It's actually chicken pakora. Sometimes they put red colouring in the batter.

>>5699634

It was tandoori chicken when I ate that it, the pakora was to the left.

Approving dis shit

Those are probably the nicest kind of chip in Britain. Too bad most people favour the kind you find in a 'chippy,' which tastes like vomit IMO.

How much are one of these things?

>clapistan fattest nation on earth
>we don't even have these
We need to step up our game.

carne asada fries on the west coast is the closest thing. it's like a pound of beef and two pounds of fries with guac, cheese, sour cream, and salsa.

>>5700228

I'm originally from San Diego, but lived in LA for five years and currently live in Portland, and I have not been able to find carne asada fries outside of San Diego and the neighboring cities/suburbs.

>>5700228
would devour/10

>>5700243
I've never had an issue finding carne asasda fries anywhere in california. the best ones I had (though maybe not the most 'traditional') were in san francisco

>>5700243
Damn not even LA? Thinking about moving further up north but don't want to lose out on the burritos and fries down here.

>>5699709
those chips look like standard american fries

>>5700262
does LA not neighbor san diego?

have you never been there?

>>5699675
tandoori chicken isnt fried

>>5700267

California is vast. It's an almost three hour drive from LA proper to downtown San Diego. There's a good stretch of about an hour where it's nothing but Camp Pendleton, desert lands with easements, and the San Onofre power plant.

>>5700267
Only passed through never stopped to eat. LA is such a dump. If I moved north, I think I'd go to OC, Riverside, or the inland empire.

>>5700262

LA has an aversion to the avocado. So a good 90% of all Mexican/American Mexican food places won't have it at all. The Mexican food in San Diego seems to be endemic to San Diego.

>>5700277
yea you are right, there is pretty much nothing between san diego and LA, hence why you would say they neighbor eachother

>>5700278

Riverside is a shithole. If you are planning on moving to Orange County, I'd stick to places closer to the coast.

>>5700281
I've never seen a mexican place without avacado in LA, not even a taco bell

>>5700228
jesus christ ive never wanted a meal more than this in my life

>>5699406
That brunchie burger is some good shit though

>>5699509
Did you even read the OP?

that's not even that much for a whole day.

>>5699388
i came a little

>>5699377
that green pepper looks like a small turd

>>5700321
Those little shitty kebab shop chillies are GOAT. fite me irl

>mfw I can't find those food in Swissland.

ITT: Scottish Bento boxes

>>5700345
Get pizza box, pile of greasy food. Pour greasy food.

served on a plate

>>5700353
It will never be as cheap as those here. As a poor student I can hardly afford any junkfood at all.

Being high and browsing this is simultaneously amazing and depressing

>>5700243
There are plenty of places in LA with asada fries, the only problem is that Ive never had any as good as Ive had in SD.

>>5700370
cry me a river, fondue boy

>>5699388
this is the best looking one

>dem fries

>>5700284
Just as Portugal and New York neighbor each other. Nothing but water in between.

Food like this is crazy to me.

I'm 23 years old and fat enough from the occasional junkfood. If I ever let myself eat this shit I'd weight 300 lbs, easy. I hate myself enough as it is so no go, bro.

How are people eating this shit and escaping with their lives?

>>5700421
They're Scots, they've got naught to live for.

>>5700228
Yep, this shits my go to junk food.

And to the anon's saying they can't find them outside of San Diego or Los Angeles, keep looking. Southern, central, or northern California all offer this stuff in just about every taqueria or Mexican market that prepares fresh food.

>>5700421
this, Europe I am appalled. How do you do it, and how often. I'm sure the calories from the beer alone before you eat one of these is astronomical. ex-fat here but even in my fatty days I don't think I would try to finish one of those.

that said they look delicious and I wish I could buy one to bring to a party or football game to share.

>>5700421
Stuff like this can still be enjoyed very occasionally. Go out for a drink and get one of these while stinking drunk. Everyone should once or twice do this.

Moderation in everything, even moderation. If you really feel bad about it go for a gym for an extra hour for the two weeks afterwards or something

>>5700449
are the people that buy these boxes big guys for YOU? or is this a thing like how once or twice a year I'll eat a whole pizza and order of wings then pretty much starve the next few days?

>>5700350
My sidess

>>5700458
I dont find 1 large meal like this occasionally (like once a month) has any significant affect on my health or weight. I may feel bad after but its not like eating something like this would immediately make me fat.

it takes like 11000 calories to make 1 pound of fat, these boxes are probably like 3000 calories.

it would take 4 of these to gain one pound, and that is assuming you do nothing but eat and sleep (so you dont burn any calories)

>>5700228
my nigga

>>5700458
I didn't really understand the first bit. But yeah, it is like the pizza thing. People will buy parts of it on the way home for drunken delicious greasy snack. Only is Glasgow is it an acceptable mainstay dinner. I mean this shit goes down real smooth with a 9L bottle of diamond white and a lidl extra value single malt 70cl chaser

>>5700476
i think 1 pound of fat = 3000 calories so you'd have to consume 3000 more than you burn in a day to gain one pound. I'm only a broscientist though so lets not get too serious here.

I understand what you are saying though, you don't get fat in a day, its from months of overconsuming/being sedentary. I'm just not sure how often you guys eat these things, I mean even the fat Americans ITT are in awe.

I wanna get tore up and eat one now.

>>5700376
For real, I'm waiting to come up on 0,5g of MDA and I know I have time to order a box and get it home, but not enough time to eat it before the nausea kicks in... First world problem/10.
