   So the English have been trading spices since the 10th century after the first crusade renewed interest in spices. An interest which had wained in the wake of Roman withdrawal from the island. By the late 16 the century (1580) Drake returned to Plymouth with a large cargo of cloves from Ternate Island.
   
   Twenty years later the British East India Trading Company was founded and given a royal monopoly on trade east of the Cape of Good Hope. This allowed UT 5o control virtually all spice trade to Europe from the region for over 200 years.
   
   So with a one thousand year history of importing and trading, spices why is English food still so bland and mushy. You would think they would have figured out how to use spices after one thousand years.

   At some stage you gotta realise, the reason we import people to rape, murder and even eat our children is because a certain portion of our society get off on the idea of little girls getting raped and killed.

   British cuisine is traumatized from being bombed in WW2. Never did recover.
