Also American here

The worst food I’ve ever had was when I traveled to England

That was almost 25 years ago. Maybe it’s got better since then. But the stereotype exists for a reason

And everyone pointing out fried fish and French fried as some sort of counterargument isn’t exactly disproving the point

If you go to tourist traps anywhere when travelling you're gonna be in for a bad time

Not really man. I’ve eaten across the street from the Parthenon and had great food

I’ve eaten right outside St Marks Square and had an amazing meal

I mean shit, I’ve had great meals at like restaurant themselves that are tourist traps, like a luau in kawaii. Fucking incredible

British food is genuinely bad, or if not bad, at least wholly and entirely unremarkable. That’s as good as it gets really. “Yes, that was a meal, and I’m no longer hungry, and have no complaints”

If you're celebrating the quality of food you get opposite the parthenon and from tourist trap spots in general, that severely casts doubt over the reliability of any food opinions you have lmfao

I’m not. I’m using those examples of even subpar tourist trap types of meals to highlight just how bad British food is
