British cuisine
Some British foods have been just as nativised in the U.S. such as apple pie, macaroni and cheese and sandwiches. British cuisine was a major influence on the cuisine of the Southern United States, including fried chicken. British foods like fish and chips, shepherd's pie and gingerbread are also entrenched in American food culture. Drinking culture in the U.S. has been heavily influenced by Britain, especially the introduction of whisky and certain styles of beer in the colonial period. By the late 20th Century, British cuisine was sometimes stereotyped as being unappealing in the United States, although British cuisine is commonly eaten there. This reputation has been attributed to the impact that WWII rationing had on British cuisine in the mid-20th Century.
