Hi everybody it's Luke from Luke's English podcast welcome to the

podcast I've just eaten a pizza and it was it was oh it was all right it wasn't

the best pizza I've ever had it certainly wasn't the worst because I've had some pretty bad

Pizzas in my time let me tell you I'm from England

We're not known for our food well we are known for our food we not known for our food. Well, we are known for our food. We're known for it being kind of bad.

So imagine, like, imagine the different kinds of pizza that I've had in England. I used to live in Liverpool, okay?

That's an area of the world which is famous for some things, but pizza is not one of them,

okay? Now I used to eat pizza quite regularly because I was a student in Liverpool.

There was a little pizza shop down the road and we used to go there sometimes because we couldn't be bothered to cook and so we would just go down and get pizza and the pizzas were very small

They were probably about oh dear how big something in the region of 20 centimeters in diameter, which is not

very big as a pizza, and the toppings were very limited.

I remember that I used to eat spicy beef a lot, which is basically just a pizza with some...

I imagine it was beef. I mean, now that we know about what goes into meat in England, it could have been anything.

I mean, it, there was probably a bit of horse in there as well,'s be honest but they called it spicy beef

so it's basically just like a little pizza with meat sprinkled over the top of it we

we assume that it was beef. Who knows what it was? It could have been horse. You know about the horse meat scandal? I think I might have talked about it before on Luke's English podcast. This is a scandal which rocked the United

Kingdom over the last couple of years when it was discovered that many beef products that were found in very common supermarkets

contained not beef but horse meat. Oh my God! Now on one hand that is a terrible thing because you know you pay for you pay for beef you want beef and if you've realized that they're putting horse in there, you're not getting what you paid for.

You also might think it's horrible to eat the flesh of a horse.

Oh, no.
