This is absolutely right.
Unfortunately England chose to carry on like we were rationed into the 1970s.
Stuff like that leaves a mark. It took the US beer industry 60 years to recover from prohibition and start making actually good beer again. We still have depression era dishes, like Anything Chili. We just were lucky to have peppers that grew natively.
