Yep, just seems disingenuous to act like the history of the spice trade hasn't affected our food culture when it clearly has massively. Hell, even curry in Japan is popular not because of India but because of British influence. The reason "Katsu Curry" is called Katsu is because of the English word "Cuts" referring to the cuts of meat in the curry, which is Japanese sounds like 'katsu'.
