The food it so bland, but so high-calorie and nutrient deficient.

"Bland" isn't the term I'd use for American cuisine. It's an unsubtle and unhealthy mix of different ethnic cuisines, but bland? Not really.

As for the UK, Northern Europe never had access to all the spices and foreign ingredients of the Mediterannean, many of which only grow in warm climates.

Just saying there are tons of tasty options here. Ever had Afghani food? Delicious.
You guys should try Kokoreç with a lot of cumin in it. One of the tastiest sandwiches. :steamsalty:
Bland is good, that's why.:steamthumbsup:
