Baked beans actually contain a number of spices, it’s “a trade secret” but at least chilli, paprika, pepper and garlic among others, equally though when brits create something that only somewhat resembles actual indiaj food as it’s made with indian spices it doesn’t get considered as british food and the “british people no eat spices” thing continues - it’s like rejecting every italian dish with potato, tomato or chilli leaving them with… ham and basic pasta pesto, I guess?
Also countries can eat both trash and objectively good food, see South Korea and to a lesser extent Japan for more details (or of course they could be like Finland or Nauru and exclusively eat trash, save for the occasional berry or mushroom in Finland which hardly constitutes a whole meal)
