British supermarkets & producers increasingly “de-Europeanising” foods for post-Brexit UK.
So for example “Petits Pois” (a term much of the world uses regardless of where they come from) has now become “British fancy peas” with Union flag.

To everyone who replied:
“..it’s good to see food produced locally”..
..none of the products here have changed locality it’s just the name that’s changed.
That was the entire point of the thread.
Well that & highlighting the inherent humour of the term “British fancy peas”.
