Yes, although the American ones come in a different, much more sugary sauce, which has led to Americans being confused as to why people would put it on toast and top with cheese.
American bread is also more sugary than uk bread too right? I’ve never tried it but I’ve heard from a lot of other fellow Brits that it almost tastes like cake in comparison
Oh yeah those. Yeah that’s one of the ways to eat beans in the US (with sausage and onions), but it’s the third that comes to my mind personally. When I think beans, my first thought is Mexican refried beans, with salt, lime, probably some other stuff I’m not sure, and topped with a pinch of Queso. Not remotely sweet. Then I think of our chili’s, which are usually pretty bean heavy too, how sweet they are depends on where it came from. In my experience it’s mostly just the storebought chili’s that have any sugar, I don’t think people consider adding any to their homemade stuff.
UK food has lots of seasoning, I really don’t know where this meme comes from.
The UK actually has spicier food than anywhere else in Europe. The only other countries really being Spain and Hungary.
Even putting aside how massive British-Indian cuisine is here, there’s extensive use of English mustard, which is spicy (try it if you haven’t, it’s nothing like American or Dijon mustards), and horseradish, which is basically wasabi.
They abandoned the spices when France did. The reason? Poor people could also afford spices so it was no longer a status symbol. The new status symbol was simple meals of very fresh meat and vegetables cooked with complicated methods requiring many hours and loads of practice.
Yeah because the British are a historically poor country right? Not like South America or Asia!
What those people do to beans should be considered a war crime.
People that take the “haha British food bad” meme this seriously are peak redditor.
Lololol👌 🤣
The elite are historically wealthy, not the peasants whose labour they profit off of.
Are you talking about baking them? Don’t baked beans also appear in American cuisine?

Something being sugary has never stopped an American topping it with cheese before.
“But what if we put cheese in the cake batter before we fry the batter?”
“But what if we fried butter?”

We (not me personally) even put cheddar cheese on apple pie.

Y’all could use more seasoning. Didn’t y’all do colonialism for spices?

I was specifically referring to the beans
I always put all kinds of spices and herbs in my baked beans
People season those too.

In reality, UK food uses spices extensively.
Tell that to a Full English or a Tikka Masala
If it’s considered a warcrime then god damn call me the British empire when it finds any natural resource.
