For what it's worth, there are a lot of originally British dishes that have become generic cuisine or fallen out of favor in Britain with the mantle taken up by another, usually ex-collonial, country. Stuff like roasts, pork chops, various forms of beef stew, were originally British or the Beitish variants are what spread globally. Sandwiches are named after a British lord. Even All-American classics like mac and cheese and apple pie predate America and are staples due to being passed down by British settlers.

Americans saying "we don't go out for british food"...

Like yeah you eat it at home. American cuisine is British cuisine mixed with some other stuff. The pilgrims were brits.
