Look at this pic - It's a "chip butty": literally just french fries between two pieces of bread. And they actually eat this crap.

How did the British pallet get to be so fucking lame?

The British actually invented many curries after coming into contact with India during Company rule and the Raj, they introduced some British elements to local dishes, but often kept the same name. For example, dishes like Rogan Josh, and some Vindaloos, while native to the Indian Subcontinent, have been subverted into some areas as some prefer the Anglo-Indian recipe to the original one.

Partly correct. It was the war and rationing which drastically changed cooking for us. When you had no choice but to eat bland, shit food else you starve, and then post war they passed that onto their children, AKA boomers who stew the ever-loving shit out of their vegetables 'til there's no flavour and then they pass that bullshit on too.

British food was all about the ingredients, our meat and vegetables were second to none, given our climate. And while we didn't rely on fancy cooking techniques or presentation, the ingredients were allowed to shine through.

Now though, we export all our best ingredients for maximum profit, and import dogshit from elsewhere. And we've allowed our culture to become Americanized where we think McDonalds and KFC is good food, so we emulate that in our cooking and purchasing.

Homecooked food prepared by old women is amazing in Britain, as they shun processed and pre-prepared ingredients. But anyone under 50 will insists FoodCorp's latest freeze-dried chicken-style kievs are the best thing evaaar because someone famous advertises them on facebook.

Ok so serious answer: Imperialism.

You don't consider indian food british.

Or north american food british.

Or shanghai food british.

Or even irish food british.

There is very little you consider british. When you substract every influence the empire has ever had or gotten, you are left with very little.

Furthermore, britain is an aristocracy. Peasents ate shit gruel. And the lords of the land, dined on the most exotic shit they could find.

But you can't have goose liver paté crossing over into shit-shit gruel.
So the food cultures split radically, and nowadays all the shit-heap peasant ancestors are the ones running the show..

So.. I guess you have to ask yourself.. Is british food even a thing, if you have substracted every fucking spice and ingredient you can think of, as being "nonbritish".
And deemed every exotic indulgence of the aristocracy to be nonbritish..

Personally, I like country style british food. Sunday roast, that lot. And I also like crab rangoon.
