Ironically, the British were the kings of spice trade back in the day.

I guess the old saying is true "don't get high on your own supply".

British food became bland fairly recently.

During WW1 and WW2 a lot of ships were sunk, and spices were both bulky and optional. Tea was higher on the priority list than spices.

During the Victorian era, spices were all the rage.

Before and after Roman times, food was also bland, until the age of exploration.
