Agreed. People think British food is dull because they've not seen what British people have as a treat. Cases in point:

England

  • Roast Dinner with Yorkshire Pudding.
  • Melton Mowbray pies
  • Cornish Pasties.

Scotland

  • Haggis (yes, I'm citing this, Haggis is actually fucking delicious and versatile).
  • Cullen Skink
  • Shortbread

Wales

  • Welsh Cakes
  • Bara Brith
  • Glamorgan sausage

Northern Ireland

  • Fifteens
  • Paris bun
  • Gravy ring

That's not even getting into the weird shit like Scottish Fast Food or what we've done with immigrant cuisine. Fuck, if you want a tour of Britain, try a fry up in every home nation because other than Sausage and Bacon, there's a different spin on it in every home nation. People shit on British cuisine because they shit on Working Class food, or food people have when they've just come home from work and need something in their stomach. Beans on Toast is what people have for Lunch when they need something quick and filling, Mince and Tatties is what people have when they have mouths to feed. I don't see Americans having home-fried chicken every day or making Clam bake or something, why would we have full on roast dinners every night?

The dishes you listed are not really exciting to me, I'll be honest. The one type of food English (not sure about other British parts) people can be relatively proud of are deserts. I really appreciate an Eton mess for example.
