Even the British hate British food, which is why Indian curry has been elevated to national cuisine and before that they hated the French but adopted their words and dishes as part and parcel of upper class dining.
Hell...
The food is British
The cars are French
The police are German
The lovers are Swiss
...and the whole thing is run by Italians
I submit that the only reason the British Empire exists is because they were looking for a decent meal.
The proof?
Where did they end up? India and China!
