A comment on this earlier AskLemmy post inspired me to ask this question. I think there's lots of delicious British food/it really depends on how you cook it, as with any cuisine.

It's good on buttered toast, but yeah not exactly an English dish.

Haha yeah, we just have it from the can because it goes on potatoes and things and means you've got half your vegetables sorted for the meal.

I buy it canned most of the time too.

The canned stuff is almost identical to the homemade version anyway as there's only like 8 ingredients in a ratatouille and 6 of them are always going to be the same vegetables in approximately the same ratios.
