Not British, but as someone who eats, food is food :3

Nah, British are kings of pastries, pies and cakes. Also don't underestimate British cheeses. Cheddar cheese is the most popular cheese in the world, and where was it made? Britain. Then there's stuff like Stilton, Wensleydale, and while Somerset Brie is really just a variant of Brie, it's still really nice.

That's not even digging into the various curries that gained their current forms in Britain, mainly by British Indians, who are just as British as any other.

I had bangers and mash once because a family member made it. It was super good. She told me she couldn't get proper bangers and had to substitute with some other sausage. (Don't remember which) I presume that if she used proper bangers it would have been gross.

If nothing else, a Full English is the best breakfast there is, so there's that.

Also, beans on toast is clearly superior to the American equivalent PB&J, and if you disagree, you're just wrong 🤷

Stargazy pie is pretty good.

Going out to eat is eating some other ethic or nationality’s food.

The deep fried Mars bar is the pinnacle of cuisine tyvm

I don't remember where I heard/read it first, but someone said that the British eat like they're still going through the blitz. I thought that was hilarious, and it seemed true.
