HI everyone,
Here is an article about traditionally British food that are losing their popularity.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/articles/classic_british_dishes************
Some classic British dishes may be moving from our cookbooks to the history books, as Brits no longer recognise them, according to new research. More than a quarter of Brits have never eaten toad in the hole, with nearly one in five thinking it’s made up for fictional purposes, the research reveals. And some nursery puds may be on the way out, with 18 percent believing the old school dinner favourite spotted dick is imaginary.
Over a third of the 2000 respondents to the survey from Mortar Research, commissioned by Aldi, hadn’t tried black pudding, a British food traditionally found in a Full English breakfast.
Our love for British food may be strong, but “we need to embrace these [lesser-known] traditional British recipes before we lose them,” says Charrington-Hollins, adding “if you don’t pass recipes down, they get lost, but at the same time if recipes don’t adapt and change, they also die out.”

Its all about globalization and a veggie trend, I guess.
Cheers.
