He’s An Englishman Dishing On What American Foods Look Disgusting But Actually Taste Delicious
Have you ever had a plate of food placed down in front of you that looked low-key atrocious but ended up being really delicious?
Let’s face it: some of the best-tasting food sometimes doesn’t always look the most appetizing.
One English content creator recently went viral on TikTok after making a video about American foods he feels look disgusting but actually taste amazing.
Josh (@imjoshfromengland2) has some strong opinions on American food and has hyped up the ones that may get discredited for their looks or textures.
The first food Josh mentions is a carnival or amusement park classic – a good ol’ corn dog! Josh says they don’t look all that appetizing, but once you dip a corn dog in a little mustard or ketchup before taking a bite, it tastes “absolutely wonderful.”
Next up on Josh’s list is one of my favorites: a bowl of gumbo!
When Josh had his first bowl of gumbo, he thought it looked like somebody had scraped it out of a garbage can and served it to him. Ouch.
“However, I put it in me mouth [and] it tasted divine,” he says in his TikTok video.
“So that is why gumbo makes this list.”

It is gumbo season in Louisiana, so you should see if you can find yourself a nice warm bowl of it near you. Don’t be afraid of how it looks!
Finally, the food that Josh says deserves the number one spot for looking nasty but tasting delicious is another Southern favorite: biscuits and gravy.
“This straight up looks like vomit, mate,” Josh says.
“However, you try it, and it is the best American food. It is incredible. I love it.”
A lot of Josh’s viewers agreed with him and sounded off in the comments.
“I knew biscuits and gravy was going to be your number one,” commented one user.
“I was ready to block you if biscuits and gravy wasn’t number one,” commented another user.
Do you think there are any other weird-looking yet delicious American foods Josh should’ve put on his list? Or should he have left one of those off it?
@imjoshfromengland2 AMERICA, THESE ARE THE BEST! ???
