    I recall reading somewhere that a lot of prepared food in the UK has to be packaged to be bland due to food health and safety laws. I know the laws are a lot stricter but on preservative and additives but does this include more general spices as well?

      Idk where you got that from. I suppose it depends on your standards, when I visited the US I found everything suuuper sweet, so I guess it isn’t like that. But most food here isn’t as bland as it’s reputation and there certainly aren’t laws on how many spices you can put in packaged food lmao
