Why is Brit cuisine so underrated worlwide? People always like to say how shit British cuisine is and whatever. Not saying UK have one of the best cuisines, but I don't see how it's one of the worse.

WWII fucked brit bongs over pretty hard. Modern brit cuisine mostly comes from post-war rationing, which lead to pathetic drunk tier food like beans on toast. Americans on the other hand had so much surplus that they were just making up stupid bullshit simply because they could.

Brittania...

>> No.14347262

It's the fact that what people know as "British" is just what tourists get fed when they visit London, the equivalent treatment would be reducing Dutch cuisine to fries with peanut sauce.

When you take Britain as a whole, the cuisine is great in no small part because Britain has some of the best produce in the world. English seafood, Welsh lamb, Scottish beef and seafood. Britain produces a great variety of booze and cheese, and they've mastered the Sunday roast. You only have to look at what Christmas dinners look like around the country to know that Britain can hold its own against any European cuisine.

The problem is that Brits just don't cook, but that's because they were ahead of the curve with adopting ready meals. This is what happens when people are overworked, tired and poor, and will happen all over the world if shit continues the way it is now.

All the good English food is some kind of brown people fusion. Traditional English food is not very good, and really most N. European food is the same. Nordic food is all pretty terrible too. I think it comes from it being a harsh environment, food was there for survival. Compared to all the places just south of there known the world over for food.

I reckon its some mix of the basic reality of the British climate, rationing, and the food pyramid lies of the last century that disproportionately affecting British cuisine - lard and meat drippings having been essential part of the Victorian homestead. Also the simple fact that Britain has a vastly outsized cultural output, and has been hit particularly hard by modern Western self-loathing, i.e., more people are aware of British cuisine than, say, the equally boring Swedish cuisine, and the Brits are less likely to defend its existence.

Mackerel and certain other fish just aren't as readily available, not to mention shellfish. Then again, we have fish you wish you had. Deep fried vendace are a treat. :P

What bothers me most about British food culture is how they've got a sort of Galapagos Syndrome going on like whenever there's a "select your favorite candy bar" and there's Kit Kats and whatever else all the British people will just be like OI NOW ANG ON A MINUTE WHERE'S ALL THE JOLLY WOBBLYS AND FANCY FANNIES AND SWEET SUZANS THIS CANDY BAR LIST IS QUITE LACKING. Same with drinks, their sodas are always called something weird like "fizzblurk"

because it's just ingredients
literally every cuisine has brit cuisine, just take away their signature ingredients, techniques, and everything that makes them unique.

Underneath is brit cuisine

North Indian food is pretty high in dairy. The actual consumption in India itself might be low because poverty.
you're fucking retarded if you think ghee/kulfi/malai/etc were introduced by native brits. Wiggas couldn't even domesticate the cow on their own.

I have lived and worked in both London and Auckland, and the most surprising thing I found about bongs and their kiwi bastard children is how little green vegetables they actually eat. It also seems like every other person always has stomach trouble and feels "a bit crook" every other day. I FUCKING WONDER WHY?

>Being proud of the average countries breakfast dishes
God english are pathetic.
Eggs, sausage, bacon/ham, and toast were already breakfast staples in most countries.
Beans were also staples in hispanic countries too, but they actually make the good beans.
It's nothing special, no skill involved, no complex flavors or interesting twists.
The fact that people praise this munchie box of a breakfast when in reality it's just a big portioned hodgepodge.
This is like taking multiple breakfast dishes and combing it into one and saying it was original.
Completely unimpressive.

For anyone to say english cuisine is good/original would also imply that american cuisine is good/original by default as well, so think carefully when you talk about english food when you consider that both places essentially stole other cultures food ideas, alter them slightly and try to pass them off as their own.
