It's not though, is it? British food is actually pretty great. Easily up there with Italian and French food. It's why we have some of the best restaurants in the UK and why our chefs are so influential.

It's a complete misconception that Britain has bad or poor quality food. Usually brought on by an ignorant foreigner that eats in a cheap poor-quality pub, restaurant, or hotel and is served food passed off as 'British', but it's usually just a extremely poor/low quality imitation.

We also find it pretty funny that foreigners (especially Americans) think we only eat fish and chips, live in castles, or that the Scottish only consume haggis.

In fact, most Scots don't eat haggis, most of them actually hate it. And fish and chips isn't eaten on a daily basis either. In fact, lots don't eat fish and chips at all, and for most, they maybe have it a couple times a year. British people are far more likely to eat fast food, kebabs, pizza, or chinese/indian takeaway.

>>10255821
I don’t think many people would say it’s good.
It’s a rice based cuisine with very few variations and it’s generally bland as the Japanese aren’t into strong flavors.
Sometimes it presented in such a way to make it appear more appealing.
Overall it’s fuel for an industrious nation with a strong work ethic,it’s not meant to be particularly pleasurable to eat.

Are you kidding? Japanese youth love Japanese food. Especially local food. Of course western stuff is popular, but you make it sound like they've abandoned tradition and that just isn't true.

Pic related: the fried slice on the right is kurohanpen, a sardine paste popular in Shizuoka prefecture. Many of my students say it's their favorite local food.

I sell Japanese instant noodles, soups, and snacks on eBay that are hard to find in the states. Konbini.Friend is the user. I'm selling some weird shit currently.
