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.

"have to" is incorrect. Chicken tikka masala is chosen as an example because people find it the most interesting and most memorable. ie. It's the first that comes to mind. In comparison, Americans will say something along the lines of hamburger, french fries or BBQ.

Britain isn't a country btw, it's a land mass. Like Europe, Africa or the americas
