“Beans on toast really bums me out for some reason. Makes me feel destitute … no matter your circumstance you don’t have to live that way,” replied one person, while another X user wrote: “Beans. They [Brits] have an irrational love of beans at inappropriate times of day.”
Another person wrote: “Your version of baked beans. They’re god awful. Have some bbq or maple baked beans”, while another person quipped: “Beans on toast. It’s not WWII anymore.”
This person was was then told to try it with grated cheese on top, to which they replied: “Doesn’t change the underlying bland white bread toast and soggy bland beans.”

Talking about weather “like it is the most fascinating topic in the world”, also frequently appeared in the comments, as did vinegar on chips.
Non-Brits also revealed they were confused over young women going out in winter while dressed in minimal clothing and without tights or coats.
However many Brits were quick to say this was a Newcastle-centric occurrence, with one person joking that the only people wearing coats up there “are the shoplifters”.

Another Brit joked that “our ladies have asbestos skin”.
The more obscure aspects of British culture that confused non-Brits were Ricky Gervais, “the often nasty put-downs between people who supposedly like each other, be it friends, lovers, or colleagues”, the need to drink while hungover and “judges in courtrooms wearing those silly gowns and wigs”.
