I should be fair. They also learned how to bake things using all that cooking fuel. There are some excellent baked goods that come out of the British Isles.
The other point in favor of cuisine from that part of the world is breakfast. Somerset Maugham is quoted as saying, "To eat well in England, you should have a breakfast three times a day."
He's right. A full cooked breakfast is a cholesterol special, but boy they're tasty. And they'll keep you going until mid-afternoon.
