I lived in England for 10 years. I suffered from the food. They don't season their food at all, so I think it tastes bad to Japanese people with discerning palates. If it's not only tasteless, it's also expensive, so you lose interest in eating it even more. I had fish and chips as a safe bet, but since the fish was not seasoned, I think it would have been disqualified in Japan. But I don't think the British are so proud that they would never want to think that their own food tastes bad

I've never been to England, but Australia is seriously bad too

It may be problematic to say this, but I suspect that many ethnic groups are taste-deaf
I think Americans can only taste ketchup and mustard. There are many reasons for this, but
basically, I think Anglo don't care about taste

I used to be transferred from London to Barcelona and I realized that the weather and the food affect my mentality

It would have been nice to have found a necessary protein supplement in fish.
Britain is also an island nation, and if the aristocracy had embraced a fish diet, the economy and food culture would have been more developed
On the other hand, we are grateful to our ancestors who devoted all their thought to how to catch and eat fish, seaweed, and seafood.
Kelp, wafu, mekabu, and mozuku are all eaten normally, and we Japanese have amazing digestive enzymes!

I heard that if you ask for the best restaurant in London, they will refer you to Chinatown

I lived in England. The difference between Japan and England really comes out in McDonald's and so-called "convenience store" sandwiches. McDonald's in England is very bad. The bread of convenience store sandwiches is also dry. Cheap food tastes as bad as the price in uk. Japan, where you can eat cheap but amazing tasty food, is an exception to this rule

A variety of dishes as if they appeared in a gag cartoon

I live in England. I try not to be adventurous because it's expensive, tasteless, scarce, the menu is only written, and it's a triple punch. McDonald's patties and nuggets are stinky, hard, and bewilderingly bad. The vegetables I buy at the supermarket and cook at home are of poor quality. Is it a bad variety? They sell sprouted vegetables, damaged ones, expired ones, and broken eggs without a care. Chicken, pork, and beef are dry, smelly, and hard. They don't sell slices. They don't taste good. The only things that taste good are ham and lamb. You can't expect it to be as good as in Japanese supermarkets. When they are hungry and can only eat a little food, they satisfy their hunger by eating ice cream, cookies, chocolates, so-called sugar. So they complete their hunger with palatable sugar. It's sold as if it's good enough to eat, without considering the feelings of the eater. The way they think is also poor. Someone once said that winning the war was ruining England. I agree

When I traveled to Australia a long time ago, one day I visited a ranch and was served a steak grilled on the spot for lunch. Many Japanese tourists who were happy with the steak initially left it uneaten after a few bites. The tour conductor told us, "Aussie beef itself is a tasty meat, but in Australia, because of the tradition of British food culture, the meat is grilled without seasoning, and because there is no way to prevent the juices from seeping out, the umami and flavor is lost, and the result is just a tasteless finish. The meat istelf is not bad," he said in a desperate attempt to explain himself.

Fifty years ago, I went on my honeymoon to a restaurant in London and was disgusted by the mashed spinach that was served as a side. I thought it would have tasted better with salt and pepper and a little butter. The spaghetti restaurants in Rome are also of a very low level compared to those in Japan, and the fritters in Venice were not tasty at all

>>214206994 (OP)
Reminder "umami" doesn't exist. It's just the jap word for savory.

>>214206994 (OP)
you are finally back, stupid umami guy.
get off again.

>>214206994 (OP)
This obviously does though. It's a good sandwich and soup/gravy base in general

Overseas comment: British food is pretty good actually.
Plus you can get all the international cuisine, for example good sushi or food from the colonies, like chicken tikka masala.

Katsu curry too

Umami makes everything taste better, soups, snacks, instant noodles, sauces. You know why your Doritos seem unreasonably craveable? That’s often Umami doing its job.

>>214207578
Blasted that bugman

>>214209529
To be fair, you need to have a high IQ to recognize Umami.

>Dr. Kikunae Ikeda, the creater of Ajinomoto, in 1912

>"An attentive taster will find … something common in the complicated taste of asparagus, tomato, cheese, and meat, which is quite peculiar and cannot be classified under any of the four basic tastes, sweet, sour, salty and bitter. It is usually so faint and overshadowed by other stronger tastes, that it is often difficult to recognize it unless the attention is specially directed towards it."

gaijin really have no morals

>>214209039
need some umami on my japanese vocabulary x

>>214209561
Kikunae's insight was truly ahead of its time. His quote really highlights how Umami can be subtle, which is why it took so long to be appreciated globally. It’s almost like a "taste IQ" you have to consciously tune in to detect that depth.

Why do nips sperg out when it's pointed out that they didn't invent some secret flavor that filthy gaijins never discovered?

>>214210039
Before Umami, "sweet, salty, sour, bitter" were the core taste categories. But thanks to Ajinomoto, we gained a whole new taste: Umami. It changed how people think about flavor.
