This in spades. UK is probably the worst country for good food in general. Its a demand supply thing, people just dont know better.
And of course totally different in the cities. Much more exciting than most european cities.

My partner is Japanese and her and her friends have an affectionate term for the food found at most UK weddings as "the beige spread".
Funnily enough now some of them have moved back to parts of Asia she keeps getting requests to send them such UK classics as cheese puffs, Mccoys and custard creams.

You could... But the general standard of food in the UK is shocking compared to most southern European countries... People aren't brought up to appreciate good food, unless you're middle class, in which case you'll eat very well...
In Spain everyone eats the same thing, rich or poor... And everyone knows when foods are at their best, when not to buy them, how to prepare them, how to spot bad produce... It just doesn't happen in the UK, that knowledge has been lost...
