They are mediocre at best, and I'm being generous. There is absolutely no reason to brag about them, promote them, or try to encourage others to make this recipe.

Or, maybe, someone has traveled enough and experienced enough different kinds of food to realize that on the bland to not bland scale, places like the UK and the north central US lean far more to the bland than many, many other world cuisines.

You can talk about subtlety all day long, and you know what, cool. Some people like their food more on that side of the scale which is perfectly fine. A lot of us don't though. That's not claiming to understand flavor better than anyone else, it's just fucking recognizing that there's differences and having preferences.

And before someone says, "b-b-b-b-b but x dish has loads of flavor", you're right, it does, but taken as a whole, those handful of dishes are exceptions to the rule.

Now all you have to do is define "bland". Because a good pasty is not bland (in fact done right, I.e. with good, slow cooked beef, high quality vegetables and plenty of pepper, it can be fairly rich)

When people say "bland" like it's the only qualifier for food ever, 9/10 what they mean is "MOAR SPICE!" because they're stupidly equating heat with taste.

The ones I've had have practically no salt or black pepper added, and no, I'm not someone who oversalts everything and has to have a ton of spice. The beef flavor gets lost in the pastry and potatoes, and while I've seen carrot and onion in them, I've not really noticed their flavor.

Translation:

Britain doesn't overload their food with mass amounts of salt, MSG, HFCS etc so that means it's bland.

It's hilarious how fucked American tastebuds are,just go to yelp of any American who goes abroad and they always say the food is bland compared to back home. It's like how the Romans all fucked their sense of taste with the lead used in their water pipes so they poured the fish sauce on everything.

Lol, it's a lot similar than that bro:
Northern climate = spices don't really grow there = bland food.

this is true pretty much worldwide. the countries famous for spicy food are close to the equator, where spices & hot peppers grow. the further north or south you go from the equator the more bland the food gets.

that's not really true because we've been a trading nation for a verrrry long time and we've always had access to our own sort of herbs and spices. the reason britain is known for 'bland' food is just generally because we don't have a modern tradition of access to quality produce. some of our most traditional dishes are spiced to buggery.
