Worcestershire is the one good application of cultural appropriation. It was a colonizers’ attempt to replicate a Burmese condiment
That's neat actually I didn't know. Probably why it's so good
Which is also a (probable) origin story for Ketchup.
Not that it comes from Burma, it’s likely Chinese. And it was very different originally. Still…
It's very similar to SE Asian fish sauces too. Basically take anchovy mash and ferment it. Yum.
