Yeah never got this. The nation's favourite dish is curry. My favourite dish is curry. Isn't it a running joke amongst Indians how much the Brits love curry?

Things like beans on toast and fish finger sandwiches are cheap and easy lunch snacks for students but not our actual diet.

But that's just the thing, all the best food in the UK comes from India, France, or Italy.

Stops carving the Sunday roast and holds off putting the apple crumble in the oven...

But we are one of the most multicultural societies in the world and have long since adopted everyone else's cuisines.

By this logic the Japanese don't have curries and the Americans don't have pizza, or any other food for that matter.

Exactly.

And India doesn't have chillies add Italy doesn't have tomatoes... Where do we stop?

chillies is neither a dish nor a cuisine, so we do stop there
