My daugther was born in Finland. She always loved to eat fruit. When she was 2 we went to Australia and suddenly she did not want to eat "the same" fruit anymore. Well, they really tasted like fruit and not like colored water.
The UK might be marginally better than Finland, but they also get a lot of imported watery taste from Spain etc.

Eating fresh Italian tomatoes in February is as poor an experience as eating UK tomatoes in February, but eating them in June is likely to be much better in both cases.

(Farmers allege and a Swiss supermarket chain actually confirms that for their supermarkets they prefer tomato varieties that "deliver a consistent taste all year round", so instead of mediocre tomatoes in winter and great tomatoes in summer instead you get mediocre-tasting tomatoes all year round…)
