American visits UK seaside town for fish and chips but Brits spot 'problem'
An American visiting the UK decided to sample some good old fashioned fish and chips, but Brits spotted a "problem" when he tucked into the food at a popular seaside resort When you visit a different country, it's natural to explore and sample some of the traditional delicacies on offer and, here in the UK, one of the most beloved meals is fish and chips. Perhaps that's why an American ventured to a popular seaside resort in Lancashire to sample the goods - after all, you can't beat a chippy tea right by the sea. A man, known as Kalani Ghost Hunter on TikTok, recently headed to Blackpool to sample one of his "favourite" British meals, and his video has since gone viral. He headed to Bentley's Fish and Chips to carry out a taste test, as he said it was recommended by some of the locals, and he was keen to tuck in and see what was on offer. He admitted that, when he has fish and chips, he has to have Dandelion and Burdock, as he said it's "needed" to pair with the meal. Showing off the dish, he explained: "So, we've got our fish here, take a look at that - that is the large portion of fish and chips. "Vinegar, salt - you guys know the combo. Now let's dive in. I've been waiting for this meal for so many days. Mmm, so they're frying in vegetable oil, and you guys know I'm a beef dripping lover but, what I will say is, there's a very nice crunch on this. "That's a good batter flavour. Let's try out a chip - I will say they have nice, chunky chips. That's a solid piece of fish and chips. You guys know we love the curry sauce. "I also love taking a chip through some mushy peas. I also love me some cheesy chips. Now they have melted the cheese on top here - let's get us a nice bite. I love some cheesy chips." Overall, he said the fish and chips were fried "nicely", and he deemed the meal a "solid option", awarding it an 8.6/10. According to the reviewer, the meal was "very good", and he really enjoyed it. However, in the comments, people were quick to chime in with all sorts of ideas. Some people spotted a "problem", as they thought he was missing one key item on top of his chips. One person wrote: "Cheese, chips and gravy." Another added: "Have you tried cheesy chips and gravy?" A third added: "Need to chuck some gravy on the chips and cheese." Meanwhile, a fourth also commented: "You need to add gravy to your cheesy chips." Some people also thought Blackpool "wasn't the best place" to sample fish and chips, but others said there were a few spots that serve up tasty offerings. One person thought the eatery he went to was lovely though, adding: "Good chippy that." Another also chimed in with: "Ignore the people in the comments hating on Blackpool. Yes, of course it's not the gastronomic capital of England, but it's fun and a great time, if you're not pretentious." Blackpool is a seaside town in Lancashire, England. It's situated on the Irish Sea coast of the Fylde peninsula, around 27 miles (43 km) north of Liverpool and 14 miles (23 km) west of Preston. It's the main settlement in the borough, which carries the same name. The town also homes the Blackpool Tower Ballroom, which is world-famous for its unique sprung dance floor and amazing architecture.

Heinz 'upgrades' classic sauce as shoppers brand the move 'revolutionary'
Take a classic British dish to the next level with this brand new sauce Fish and chips is a staple dish across the UK. Whether it be by the seaside or a Friday night takeaway, it's a go-to order that has become synonymous with British cuisine. It's also quite versatile, as it pairs well with virtually any condiment, with some loyalists preferring ketchup, while others tend to just stick to salt and vinegar. However, many will know that the OG is Tartare sauce. Fans of the classic sauce will be pleased to hear that there is a brand new bottle on the market, as this week Heinz unveiled its Fish and Chips Sauce that they have branded as "Tartare 2.0." The beloved food manufacturer often cooks up an assortment of unique-flavoured sauces for fans to try out, with its latest offering already going down quite a treat with fans on social media who have branded it as "revolutionary." Hailed by Heinz as the "new companion for fish and chips", its herby and creamy sauce combines a few similar ingredients to the OG condiment such as gherkins, parsley, and dill. Those who are keen to give Heinz's Fish and Chips Sauce a try out the next time they order the staple dish will be able to find a 400ml bottle for £3.40 at Tesco, or on the firm's website for just £2.90. Based on the product description on the Heinz website, the sauce isn't just perfect for pairing with fish and chips, as it can bring a "refreshing twist to any dish". This includes a dip for fries, or for adding a herby flavour to vegetables and potato salad. After announcing the sauce on Instagram earlier this week, fans were quick to share their positive thoughts, as one responded with: "Now this is revolutionary!" A second Heinz fan wrote: "Ooooft! Hello!!!!" While someone else said: "Wow! its amazing!" A few shoppers on Facebook were a little more sceptical, as they thought the rebrand was just the exact same sauce but in a different bottle. One such user wrote: "It's Tartare Sauce for god sake." However, it is worth mentioning that, despite some comments, the Heinz Fish and Chips sauce is slightly different, as it does not contain capers which is one of the key ingredients in tartare sauce. The firm also responded to a customer saying it "added herbs and onions." Thiago Rapp, Director of Taste Elevation at Heinz said: "At Heinz, we're always exploring bold and exciting flavours, inspired by the latest food trends and what people across the nation are really craving. "We want to give fans endless flavour possibilities and unexpected pairings that elevate every bite. And when it comes to British classics, nothing quite compares to fish and chips. "It's a national treasure, whether enjoyed as a seaside staple, a proper chippy tea on a Friday, or a comforting midweek meal. We've created a sauce that pays homage to this beloved British dish, crafted to be the perfect companion for every fish-filled occasion." The Heinz Fish and Chips sauce (400ml) is available to buy for £3.40 at Tesco and £2.90 on the Heinz website.

Way to go for the creative department.' Shoppers can also find Tartara Sauce sachets still. A product blurb says: "A mild and creamy sauce which will be especially great with fish based dishes. Great for all catering establishments. The best way to control cost is by offering smaller individual portion sizes. These portion sachets reduce waste and provide better portion control." Heinz insisted: 'While traditional tartare sauce is made with gherkins and capers to create a tangier sauce, our new Fish and Chips sauce blends gherkins, onions, and fragrant herbs to create a herbier, creamier condiment. Think of it as Tartare 2.0!' Shoppers can also try the rest of Heinz's world flavours inspired sauces range to continue the taste adventure, including Turkish Style Garlic Sauce, American Style Burger Sauce, Thai Style Sweet Chilli Sauce, Korean Style Sticky Barbecue Sauce, and American Style Smokey Baconnaise.
