It makes me feel like a dirtbag for not eating all my food, or refusing certain foods.

More then 40 recorded famines happened in the British Raj.

A total of 60 million people starved (British sources), during the first 30 years alone of British rule 22 million people starved, and between 1875-1900 another 26 million people starved again.

Thats 10 times (or more) the number of the Holocaust.
Money was drained from the peasant to the landlord, making it impossible for the peasant to procure food.

Money which should have been made available to the producers of food via public works projects and jobs was instead diverted to other uses.

Money needed to combat famine was being diverted towards activities like paying for the British military effort.

There is an interesting book called 'The Victorian Holocausts' about this very subject.

Hitler looks like an amateur compared to what the Brits did in India, and many other places in the world, but then the victor always write the history books....
