On England and the English

"As a rule they will refuse even to sample a foreign dish, they regard such 
things as garlic and olive oil with disgust, life is unliveable to them 
unless they have tea and puddings."

(1944; repr. in The Collected Essays, Journalism and Letters of George 
Orwell, 
vol. 3, ed. by Sonia Orwell & Ian Angus, 1968), on the English attitude 
toward food.
