Can you get crumpets in America?

[OfDeath]

I love crumpets!

Yeah you can get them

No.

[meatballs21]

You can in Canada:

Sausage rolls and pork pies are far more difficult to find.

[OfDeath]

They look very pale. The Australian ones are more of a creamier colour

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

No fucking clue what a crumpet is, but you can find almost anything here so probably

[Wonderer89]

No idea if you could get them there, but crumpets are the shit! Butter and a smidge of honey 😍💦

[OfDeath]

Yeah I like them with honey too

[Wonderer89]

Or jam. I watched someone put Vegemite on one the other day and felt like confiscating it because obviously they had no idea what they were doing 🙄

[Nuala]

Yes and you can also get tea.

[OfDeath]

Yeah but you can get tea everywhere. Even North Korea

[astrOnaut01]

I think that they call crumpets "biscuits" over there.

[OfDeath]

I think that's actually like a small sandwich

[astrOnaut01]

Americans are weird

[OfDeath]

Agrees

[zorro8888]

I'm sure they have them somewhere lol although I don't hear people talking about crumpets that often

[wankiam]

in the uk crumpet is a euphemism for girls lol

[OfDeath]

I think you're right actually. The vagina to be specific

[wankiam]

nah... just girls. like one 70s sexist guy to another would say in a bar as girls come in...'ooo look the crumpet has arrived' .

[Waffles731]

Probably, but its similar yet inferior to a good American Biscuit

[OfDeath]

No mate.

[Saoirse_Nua]

There might be specialist bakeries that do them

[OfDeath]

Can you get them in Oireland?

[Saoirse_Nua]

Yes - Especially in places that do afternoon tea - If the style is old tea shop rather than coffee shop.

[OfDeath]

There are "old tea shops" in Ireland? I have to see this lol

[OfDeath]

My idea of Ireland is just people going around head butting everything and setting things on fire.
Then joining hands and singing really sing songy songs and drinking Guinness

[Saoirse_Nua]

Only at the weekend (LoL)

[OfDeath]

I quite like Guinness actually. The black one.

[Saoirse_Nua]

Are you the reincarnation of SexualChrist by any chance?

[OfDeath]

Yes.

[Saoirse_Nua]

I thought so - I have seen a few of your answers and was piecing the jigsaw together.

[OfDeath]

I don't know what happened. One day I went to log in and couldn't. Got banned over something but don't know what.
I suspect it was the actual name.

So now I'm just OfDeath with the joke being that what ever level I'm on, that's the level of death.

What gave it away?

[Saoirse_Nua]

I had an inkling when I saw the age and where you were from on a few answers, I was already thinking it and then I saw an anon one day put "SexualChrist" in one of those hottest Gaggers or something questions so I decided you were back then.

[OfDeath]

Busted lol

[Elarra]

Isn't a crumpet just an English muffin?

[OfDeath]

No. It's not.

[Elarra]

Eh, well, I can get them at a store I live by. I see them in the aisle all the time because it's an Ethnic food store and imports foods from different countries. It's in their Britain aisle next to the puddings. So, to answer the question, yes, you can, but it may depend where you live in the US.

[OfDeath]

But do you mean English muffins or crumpets?
Because they're not the same at all.

[Elarra]

Crumpets. The packaging says crumpet on them and it came from Britain. Like the pudding I'm talking about isn't the pudding in the US, it's the bread puddings that are in cans like spotted dick pudding and plum pudding. They have something called yorkshire puddings, too.

[OfDeath]

Yeah I don't like all that shit.(the British puddings) actually their crumpets are even slightly different from Australian ones.

[Elarra]

I didn't know Australia has them. My boyfriend and I are going to that store on Monday so I'm going to look for them in their Australia aisle.

[OfDeath]

Cool, there's an Australia isle?
Lol I wonder what kind if crap is in that.

[Elarra]

Lol, the store is called "Jungle Jim's". It's a huge midwest store. People go there from different parts of the tri-state because it's the only store that carries a lot of the ethnic food most immigrants are looking for.

They have 2 aisles for Italy dedicated solely to Olive Oil. No lies.

[OfDeath]

Oh my god. I think that store would be an American tourist attraction in itself.
Here we have a lot of Asian immigrants so there's all these Asian shops scattered about. If you go in sometimes the shop keeper doesn't even speak English lol

[Elarra]

It is. It's actually right behind my high school I graduated from so on days that we had band practice, we'd all walk across the street and get snacks.

[OfDeath]

So thats how you knew about it

[Intraluminal]

Wtf are crumpets anyway?

[Elarra]

It's a pastry type thing. It kinda looks like an English muffin if you google it.

[OfDeath]

They look like this:

[rgb008]

What is a crumpet? Lol

[OfDeath]

It's pretty much your basic wheat flour and water baked good but it has a few extra ingredients and a particular raising agent that gives it the holes.

[Redstang88]

Honestly don't know what they are

[OfDeath]

Well that probably means no

[Redstang88]

Yeah I assumed that much
