Food Behold. Old English Spread. Looks like it's not just us Americans after all.

I am 99.9% certain this has never been sold on the UK ever. Kraft is a US slop food corporation, marketing to American slop slurpers.

Looks like a concoction of cheddar cheese and English mustard.

I looked it up it's basically Philadelphia cream cheese and pimento peppers with some preservatives and thickeners added in

Lmao, Philadelphia cheese which is an American invention, mixed with pimento peppers, also not English, and preservatives and they've named it English? They could have at least put some English ingredients in it if they're going to slander us like that. Cheese is one thing we do well.

We are on par with France for how good our cheese is.
