The next time an American pokes fun at the blandness of British food, I am going to reply:
"Well, you have to remember, we don't have slaves to cook for us. Are yours good in the kitchen? I'd love some recipes for traditional American dishes!"
Then, when they ask what I'm talking about I'll say:
"Here's the deal. You let go of your ridiculously outdated perceptions of England, and I'll return the favor about your country."
