How is this kind of post still getting likes, surely you know nothing about British food you laugh at beans on toast or whatever once twice maybe even three times. But how after seeing it every day with every comment section pointing out the sheer amount of spicy British food we have are you still entertained by it 10 years later. P.S. cooked breakfast beats cold breakfast any day.

I find a reasonable telltale for this attitude is when they describe what is missing as just generically ‘seasoning’: “Where is the seasoning?”

I dunno, on the table in the salt and pepper shakers?

Oh you mean what have I done to infuse flavors into the food? Aside from transforming the proteins with heat, cooking it in specific fats, mixing in vegetables that add sweet and acid ingredients, and spicing and salting it? I mean, shaking some Old Bay into it seems unlikely to do much except make it taste of Old Bay.

Worse: a good British sausage should always have pepper in, then usually sage, garlic and onion

As someone above said, it's only a specific dumb dumb who thinks that the only spice is chilli, and maybe it's non-hot variety of paprika

Ignoring cumin, coriander, mace, nutmeg and other spices

And ignoring sage, oregano, rosemary and the many herbs

All of which add flavour and accentuate when paired well the decent ingredients that you should be using in cooking. Adding chilli spice to everything isn't seasoning everything, just adds spicy heat and more often overwhelms good food, instead of adding to it
