Look, I visited Britain a few years ago and you guys had pie with fish in it, which seemed kinda unique, fish & chips with vinegar in a newspaper, shortbread, haggis and other non-dessert "puddings" and breakfast with sausages etc.. (Also, we went to an Indian restaurant in Britain and it was really good. Like world class good ngl.)

This meme is British people poking fun at ourselves.

Americans just recycle the same jokes from Reddit "lol conquered the world but doesn't use spice". From people who've never left their home town. You can ignore those.

The French also insult our food and they have more of a point but that's another matter and I'll personally fight them over it

Pfft, what would the french know about good food, they probably don't even put cheese on their beans and toast

The French had to get really good at sauce because they ate horse meat.
