    Look, I visited Britain a few years ago and you guys had pie with fish in it, which seemed kinda unique, fish & chips with vinegar in a newspaper, shortbread, haggis and other non-dessert “puddings” and breakfast with sausages etc… (Also, we went to an Indian restaurant in Britain and it was really good. Like world class good ngl.)

      This meme is British people poking fun at ourselves.

      Americans just recycle the same jokes from Reddit “lol conquered the world but doesn’t use spice”. From people who’ve never left their home town. You can ignore those.

      The French also insult our food and they have more of a point but that’s another matter and I’ll personally fight them over it

      British Curries are different than a lot of “authentic” indian curries, but they have become a thing in of them selves, over the years, and they are great.

      British cooking has a bad reputation, but they make really good comfort food. Sunday roast, yorkshire pudding, steak and ale pies, shepherd’s/cottage pie, full english breakfast, pasties, fish pie, beef wellington, scones! I could go on. Sure it’s mostly brown and beige food but cooked properly all of these dishes are really tasty!
