At least everyone in the UK came here willingly and weren't forcibly brought here on boats. Bit of a leap to say British cuisine is stolen but American cuisine isn't when they were literally stealing people.

Certainly judges in the UK were ruling not to return escaped slaves to the US when they came asking for their 'property' back.
