  I was referring to like, shephards pie when I said indigenous but honestly I have no idea if thats even the case. Regardless the cuisine of the colonizer is usually mid at best

    I’ve never had shepherd’s pie, but I can’t imagine mutton in a pie is easy to get wrong. I eat something similar most days for breakfast. Sometimes there’s different seasoning and veggies and organ meats, but it’s never bad, except for the time it was testicles.

      Yeah I’ve honestly never had it be bad. My partner regularly makes a vegetarian shephard/cottage pie that I find very comforting though it doesn’t exactly conform to british standards of the dish

    Tbf, some people just throw mash potato over mince beef they’ve cooked with chopped tomatoes and soggy carrots. I used to think I hated it too, until I made it properly.

    However, I feel thats like deciding how good American food is based on next door’s poor attempt at a dry meatloaf. We have plenty of bad cooks here who panic and make poor food that they take no time over. Maybe more than our fair share.

    Also, we don’t cover up the taste of spoiling, poor quality, food by drowning it in sugar syrup and seasoning powder. That can take some time for palettes to adapt to.

        Pointing out that I think someone is being a bit unfair and overly generalising isn’t making something a competition.

        It genuinely does take time for people to adapt. That’s not point scoring.
