ITT people believing the self-deprecating jokes white cultures have been telling about themselves are actually 100% true

Funny how much the yanks bring this up to distract from their own food culture.

The rest of the world thinks that Britain doesn't use spices, what we don't know is that for some reason, we seem to use them in our confectionery.

We really like ginger.

Everyone always forgets that Chicken Tikka Masala is a British dish and one of the most popular meals in the country

The British eat so much Indian food it's crazy. There's a Nando's on damn near every corner in London.

Navy beans and tomatoes are both native to the Americas, does that count?

Britain stole all those historical artifacts and culture but couldn’t steal a recipe.

Walking down a high street in the UK. I smell loads of spices from even the shit takeaways.

I dated a British girl in high school. She microwave broccoli in water. No salt or seasoning. No butter. No nothing.

She took it out, drained the water and told me her dish was done.

That was the last time she made anything for us.

Anyone shit talking fish fingers is going to get a visit from me and my sledgehammer in the middle of the night. You've been warned!

Leave my motherfucking fish fingers out of this!!!

I know that it's mostly a joke, yet it is worth mentioning that those valuable spices were exclusively used by the rich and wealthy. Ordinary people and their food did not benefit from the spice trade at all. If you delve a little bit into culinary history and find out what the aristocrats did with (for example) extremely rare and precious nutmeg the British Empire fought wars over, you want to dig up their bones, revive them, just so that you can kill them again.
