The funniest thing about these threads are the yanks trying to convince themselves that dumping an entire spice rack on everything makes it better.

Entire wars were fought for access to spices. If we have cheap access to every spice we could ever want, why not throw a bunch of spices on to make it pop with flavor?

"pop with flavour"

There are only obscure german words to describe the level of gastronomic disgust I have at the phrase.

You would put ketchup on wagyu to make it "pop with flavour"

Personally I'm not a fan of vinegar tomato paste.

I'm talking throwing a bit of garlic powder, some granulated onion, dash of pepper, dash of parsley and oregano and some seasoning salt to give the flavor some body if it still needs it.

I know British food tend to be memed as "brown stuff", but this doesn't even look half bad, the lighting makes it look worse than it actually is.

Slap an Instagram filter on it and it will look way better.

The unseasoned boiled potatoes and the untoasted bread are just bland.

The ground beef and carrots in the undefinable brown liquid would be a textural nightmare. I cannot fathom how it tastes because the closest thing in the US would be a sloppy joe.

The real problem with this is lack of technique and seasoning.

Here’s how I would “fix” this: Toast the bread, roast and season the potatoes, make the ground beef and sauce into a something resembling Salisbury steak, and cook the carrots as their own side dish.

British Empire conquered the world at one point, and had access to unimaginable variety of spices, herbs, flavors and tastes.

and they still eat nothing but boiled vomit.
