Gave the world did they? Why can I only recognize a couple of the things you’ve given us? Need to put a bit more effort into your globalization promotions I would say.
Sure. Food gets to America through immigrants and then gets transmogrified.
Ever been to a Chino-Cubano Restaurant in Brooklyn? What a wonderful contribution to cuisine. Just but one example of “non-native” that you’ll rarely, if ever, find outside of the US.
And oh yea, Chicken Fried Steak with pepper corns and onion gravy. MMMMMMMmmmmMMM!
EDITED: Oh the Humanity - why, oh why, am I posting in Engrish!!!
You could add a lot more, including Cornish pasties, Cumberland sausages, English high tea (scones/cucumber sandwiches), kippers and regional specialties like haggis (Scotland) and cawl (Wales). All good stuff. British food is much maligned and highly underrated.
Indonesian food is pretty good, but Indian food in India is quite possibly the best food anywhere. I’ve never had Indian food outside India that even comes close.
Sure, lots of good stuff. I was commenting on the notion it has been given to the “world”. After the “Is Taiwanese Food Famous” thread I refuse to let anyone make such unqualified declarations. England gave England would be more accurate for most of the things listed above.
Well this is a timely thread. I am staring at a box on my desk. Here are some of the words that are printed on the box:
“Walkers”
“Established 1898”
“By appointment to her majesty the queen”
“Product of Scotland”
And the contents of this box incite the question-
What kind of monster would inflict the cruel culinary hoax of these HIGHLAND OATCAKES on the world? Seriously Scotland, it is inappropriate to package sawdust patties in such a pretty box. Are they supposed to be shredded or something before eating?
