This is a really shocking statement from someone who claims themselves to be historian. You're going to have a hard time explaining the " British history" of Indian food without digging into colonialism. " Hey how did the British get that... Oh they stole it."
"people who immigrated from Indian and adapted their cuisine to local ingredients and local tastes is stealing" is a hell of a victim blaming, are you really so racist as to blame indians for being colonised?
ah you're american, that explains it. you're just racist and don't think anybody who can't trace their way back to 1066 is *really* british. go fuck your sister.
A lot of people are calling you dumb so I won't repeat that, but not only are you wrong (tikka masala is british), but the guys who invented it were british citizens with Bangladeshi ancestry, not Indian. Or is every South Asian an Indian to you?
You just got to the root of his argument. “Brown people can’t possibly be British.”
I love it when people like this try so hard to be right on and only end up sounding racist.
Sorry fella, this has been long discussed in the UK, and most people acknowledge it was created in the UK. Nobody is doubting its origins. In the late 1990's Chicken Tikka Masala was named by the then UK Foreign Secretary as "Britain's true national dish" (2001)
It's not a native Indian dish. It was invented in Glasgow. Embarrassing for you.
I think it seems shocking cause u very stupid
You're accusing immigrants of stealing their own culture you fucking moron.
