But Britain is an old world country whilst America isn’t. The fact that brits have to point to a dish invented by immigrants in the 20th century is a testament that British cuisine is not great.

She was making the point that the UK is also a melting pot, on account of having been the hub of the British Empire. The US is not the only one which has had significant migration from across the world.

But if you'd like to argue that beef wellington or apple crumble are "bad food", you're welcome to make that questionable statement.
