Cottage pie, steak and kidney pudding, bread and butter pudding... all marvellous. And a proper roast or fry up are fit for kings
Can a Brit confirm this?

Not a brit, but steak and chedder pies are delicious. So are scotch eggs.

I think all the hate british food gets is because their most famous dishes are peasant dishes prepared and eat by the lower classes while other countries are known for their haute cuisine made for and eatten by the wealthy.

Peasant food is often the best food in any country imo.

I had British parents so I can confirm.

I had shepards pie at a pub once. Full disclosure I was 13 years old (traveling with family). I thought it was okay as I recall. That’s British, right?

Not a brit, but I know the traditional “Full English” breakfast: Everything is fried. Even the tomatoes.

Honestly
I’m obviously biased as a Brit, but any one who can look me in the eye after having the experience of a full English (or Scottish/Irish, a proper full Welsh is definitely a subject of understandably niche interest) and a Sunday roast, and day we have shit food here is frankly a bit of a philistine

And the sausage is mush…

There’s actually a lot of pretty good British food; unfortunately, it’s typically quite terrible for you. Like, I’ll fight anyone who wants to disparage a sausage roll, but I also understand that some people don’t want the food they put in their body to hurt them.

I’m not British… Or healthy … But I’ve had scotch eggs once and thought them amazing.
