      Except all the most popular curries in the UK aren’t Indian, they’re British, and infact pretty much any curry outside of southern Asia was introduced by the British (or occasionally Portuguese) like Japanese curry for example.

      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?

        Stops carving the Sunday roast

        Fun fact: Britain didn’t invent roasting hunks of meat. Or Sundays. Or the combination thereof.

        apple crumble

        That’s not a real thing. That’s just something English people say to sound whimsical.

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

        Correct. Only Neolithic cultures have their own foods.
