People shit on British food and come over here and make out its the best thing ever.
I couldn't convince my girlfriend to try my pie with veggies and fat chips all covered in gravy. Then she ate it and said "actually that's really nice".
Like of course its a pie covered in gravy!
The UK has some of the best produce in the world. What the average person at home does is of course something else but that's no different in a lot of countries.
As someone mentioned rationing didn't help the image but also the drabness of industrial canned food in the brown seventies. And people just forgot how to cook.
