Yes we do , But I think we drink it differently. Personally I drink tea by the gallon! I make Strawberry tea, no sugar, on ice. Sometimes earl grey and ginger peach.

Yes! Although I think iced tea would probably show as more popular than hot tea in most places. When I stopped doing caffeine a few years back, I switched to herbal tea then when I decided that not doing caffeine was silly, I switched to just plain hot tea. I drink the occasional cup of coffee now but my warm drink of choice now is usually a mug of hot tea. Nothing fancy, it's usually just Liptons because that's what we keep on hand to use for iced tea.
Do the English drink coffee? |

We seem to drink more tea than coffee.
In time of crisis us Brits always put the kettle on .. Tea solves everything lol.

I make a goooood sunday roast, my former mother-in-law taught me how to disguise the parsnips as roast potatoes too.
I'm not fan of milky tea, and I detest instant coffee...but I managed just fine in blighty.

Now here we get what I think is a funny usage of UK English... Do you 'mericans (to include all the races and nationalities who inhabit North America where this website is based) have dinner at lunch-time and tea at dinner time? Or is it always lunch in the middle of the day and dinner or supper at the end of the day? Merlin I bet you have dinner and tea don't ya? I do at home but with Un-Mrs.I we have lunch and dinner. How about you other Brits here too? |

What's a "fry up"?
Formal Sunday dinner here used to be almost a cultural icon, but I think most people today probably are more casual. Marmite sounds rather... um... powerful. I've been enjoying the thread; thank you for starting it, Merlin. |

I grew up always having lunch in the middle of the day, supper as the evening meal, and "dinner" only when it was formal--like the lunchtime "Sunday dinner." Tea time, as I understand it, is earlier than supper time; supper was always after work, so anywhere between 5:30 and 7 p.m.

I don't know what a fry up is either.
Growing up, in a rural/farming community in Texas, the midday meal was called dinner and the evening meal was called supper. Dinner was usually a larger meal and, during certain times of the year was packed up and taken to the field so that everyone could eat together. Supper was usually smaller but was still usually something fried. |
