FWIW it wasn't the Germans flying overhead that led to the shitty food and not much of it - it was the Germans in their submersible tin cans that were the big problem.
To all of you saying "this literally looks like poop", "why are they eating boiled vomit", etc, post the last thing you made and I'm sure I could come up with some shitty things to say about it.
It's fucking very obviously a normal ass plate of potatoes and meat stew with carrots. Do the potatoes look a little bland? Maybe, but there's stew to dip it in. Regardless, a well seasoned potato has a good flavor all by itself. The stew looks like every other homemade stew I've ever seen. It's hard to make that shit look "pretty", but I know y'all scarf shit like that down. Get off your high fucking horses. There's plenty of other valid things to complain about with British culture, but making fun of their food is asinine.
OK, I come from southern Europe and this will blow some people's minds, but sometimes we have bland food on purpose. Especially after a week of eating grease/spicy foods.
The dinners aren't the problem. It's the baked beans for breakfast... Also, my Dad, who was born in London, insisted on eating Marmite, which I know many of you will defend, but also piccalilli and Daddies sauce and if you like those things, I will give you major side-eye.
You don't need to be british to appreciate a good meal of lentils and carots. Of course, it you feel the need of adding extra starch, you put the potatoes in it.
