I've been to the UK and I found out this stereotype/meme is kinda true...
Some foods are a little bland.
We've been completely screwed over by the supermarkets on this one. A lot of our base ingredients are now bland and tasteless. This has had a knock on effect.
Good, traditional English food is far from bland and tasteless.
Jellied eels 🤮
I was more thinking of a properly made Sheppard's pie, or a beef roast with trimmings.
If you really love our jellied eels though... 🤷♂️
I'm fairly sure they only still exist to prank tourists.
Ah yes, the UKs equivalent of the French's escargot (snails)
The only people who eat those are Asian tourists.
They are bad traditional English food
