A study has found that traditional British midweek meals, a staple of family dinners for generations, are losing their appeal to Gen Z. The research suggests that younger Britons are increasingly turning away from classic dishes like fish and chips, bangers and mash, and shepherd's pie in favour of more international and plant-based options. This shift in culinary preferences is raising concerns about the decline of traditional British cuisine and the cultural heritage associated with these iconic meals. As the country's eating habits continue to evolve, it remains to be seen whether these beloved midweek meals will be replaced by new, globally-inspired favourites or simply fade into history.
