    I’m British and I see it’s wrong because it simply isn’t true… We have a ton of spicy foods. The stereotype that we only eat comfort foods like in the meme is old and worn out. Maybe that’s all you eat, but that’s on you.

      Yeah never got this. The nation’s favourite dish is curry. My favourite dish is curry. Isn’t it a running joke amongst Indians how much the Brits love curry?

      Things like beans on toast and fish finger sandwiches are cheap and easy lunch snacks for students but not our actual diet.

          Stops carving the Sunday roast and holds off putting the apple crumble in the oven…

          But we are one of the most multicultural societies in the world and have long since adopted everyone else’s cuisines.

          By this logic the Japanese don’t have curries and the Americans don’t have pizza, or any other food for that matter.
