The anger from Brits over mince toast was palpable.
Mince toast! How dare the Americans -- specifically food website Eater-- claim the dish was a "quintessential British comfort classic."

British restaurant critic Jay Rayner, who once described upscale Paris restaurant Le Cinc as being decorated in shades of "fuck you," weighed in on Twitter.

Others contested the claim it's common in Britain, although celebrity chef Nigella Lawson said while the dish isn't a classic, it is "delish."

While Eaterlater corrected itself by saying mince toast was a "quintessentially British dish," rather than a "classic," it turns out it's much loved over in New Zealand.
Yep, New Zealand: The land in which their prime minister treats his family to ~spaghetti~ on pizza, and happily tells everyone on the internet about it. No surprises here.
"It is an absolute rural classic. Rural people used to have meat for pretty much three meals a day and you could heat up leftover mince for lunch or Sunday night dinner with buttered toast," Helen Jackson, a New Zealand food writer, told The Guardian.
Apparently it's even trendy café fare up and down the country. Guess avocado isn't good enough anymore.
"It would have to be our dish. I suppose it's bolognese Kiwi-style isn't it?" Chris Johnston, owner of Replete Café in the North Island town of Taupo, told stuff.co.nz.
Well, at least that's settled. And no, we won't be having mince on toast.
