Britain has amazing potatoes

Helloo,

We all know britian has amazing potatoes but we weren't born with that knowledge. When you are British you learn these things, no no, not thorugh parents or teachers or agricultural classes (if any one had any. Unlikely), you learn this through crisps packets, or to be more precise, you learn it through WALKERS crisps packets. Still I cant just write that and say it's a post. So I'll tell you a little story instead. Yes, it has a moral .

So, us LAKES are in our second year of university, i honestly do not know how we managed to get this far but here we are, anyway during the first year, probably around this time when exams were fast approaching we, the lakes sat in the library for "revising" . We sat there talking about why a pig should be called Albert and not Elvis , yes we do discuss the important matters in life. So as we're muttering away, we seem to recognise this girl that walks past, a familiar face from our lectures, she smiles and asks if she can sit with us, we agree but still talked away till our hearts content and ate crisps also to our hearts content. Hey dont judge us, it was lunch. Little did we know it wasn't only each other we were amusing, as the girl found our conversations shall we say, a little "special." Before leaving however she utter something along the lines off "I find it funny how British people manage to eat crisps and consider it lunch." I think she wasn't British

Now at first we didn't really think much of that, until today when Kathleen had a whole new revelation. We both sat in the lecture eating crisps, just watching other students enter the hall to sit down too, when suddenly she saw the girl and casually said "oh look, there's that girl we scared" ... which triggered a little flashback to when we met her in the library, and said "Oh yeah, she said crips can't be eaten for lunch." Now at this point, Kathleen had a moment, she held her crisp, gripping it firmly and shot her arm in the air, the heavens opened up and light came down and in that brief moment she managed to say "THE GREAT BRITISH POTATO"

Of course this didn't last very long as I burst into laughter the moment the words came out but I must say, to all the British people, we have amazing potatoes!
