Just to be clear, the prejudice I'm speaking of is that British food lacks herbs and spices which results in bland, boring, brown. With the Introduction of more Indians and Pakistanis, more flavors came to the British table. I don't mean to refer to "heat" and salt levels in food are, in my experience, pretty standard globally.
