Maybe American maws are only capable of picking up flavor profiles that are as subtle as behing hit in the face with a sledgehammer, while the natural crookedness of Britteeths allows the flavour molecules to hit a broader surface in the mouth.

All I know is that if you're in a multicultural area, avoid "British" when used to advertise food.

Those habits make it harder to notice subtley in cusine. Aeryk posted:we got most of our indian cuisine from you, so ours is twice removed! The Indians were less subject people and more willing collaborateurs in the ethnical cleanse fest that was the heights of British Empire.

Like I said, Ancient Israel split in half over King Solomon's incredibly high taxes and his son's refusal to lower them. Solomon levied such high taxes (IIRC his tax amount was 666 units which is what Revelation is referencing) to keep up with the Jones around the Levant and to try and convey the "you're better off trading with us than fighting us" message
