Me, too - and it's not in the Tomisimo dictionary. I had to google "define scouse". Good word!

Were you ever obliged to eat scouse?
I've had mashed canned peas.
I've had kippers.
British staples have a bad reputuation--sometimes justifialby. Maria Jose may disagree with me in this matter.

To tell you the truth, I knew that it meant a person from Liverpool but wasn't aware it was also a type of food. So, the answer to your question obviously is no, I was never obliged to eat it. It must be something very regional as I certainly never saw it "down south" where I lived.
As far as British staples, a lot of them are good if cooked using good quality ingredients and TLC, but I guess that goes for about any dish.

"Singin' in the rain"
Although the dancing was better than the singing. Maybe it should
have been called Dancin' in the Rain.

Creo que esta rima existió antes de la película. El propósito de la rima es enseñar pronuciar los "r" y "o" de modo correcto.
En los años de cine mudo, muchos de los actores hablaron mal con varios accentos incomprehsibles. Cuando llegó sonido
hubo un pánico y una prisa aprender hablar el idioma de la reina. La peli, ademas de ser un entretenimiento, se tratababa
de de la crisis de 1927(la crisis de sonido)
