I'm British and I see it's wrong because it simply isn't true... We have a ton of spicy foods. The stereotype that we only eat comfort foods like in the meme is old and worn out. Maybe that's all you eat, but that's on you.
As you say, lots of spicy food options. Our National Dish is actually a curry - chicken masala and Phall, the hottest curry, was invented in Birmingham.
Also - in the picture are baked beans. They're invented in the USA. We adopted them, but they're not ours.
Did an ethnically British person invent the chicken tikka masala and phall, or was it an immigrant from the Indian subcontinent or one of their kids/grandchildren?
“No, where are you really from?”
Bruh I'm a British Turk.
I get mad when Germans try to bullshit they invented the döner kebab. The roots of those curries are based on recipes from the Indian subcontinent.
John Curry did not invent the tikka masala in Kent, the same way the döner kebab was not invented by Hans Döner in Stuttgart
