A comment on this earlier AskLemmy post inspired me to ask this question. I think there’s lots of delicious British food/it really depends on how you cook it, as with any cuisine.

    Traditional spiceless dishes, like Christmas pudding?

    I think you have it backwards. The UK conquered the world, in part for spices (although that was more a Spain and Portugal thing), and used them. Then, you stopped importing them for a few decades as government policy and switched to “grease as the primary flavour”.
