    Literally everything interesting and unique is crap tier, its like every Anglo country just hates what little culture they can lay claim to and just embraces dogshit fast foods and meme foods like holy shit bangers and mash is literally just sausage and potato mash its literally not a dish its something you put together from shit you have in your fridge.

    Cant these fucking people at least be proud of what little is uniquely theirs and not just a component of global capitalist food culture?

        Regional foods are what everyone should look at when looking for "X nation cuisine", because whatever is universal is boring as fuck. You wanna find like actual interesting American food you gotta look for like New Orleans and cajun/creole cooking and shit like that because "American food" is just gonna be like dogshit burgers and bland apple pie.

            Also sucks when some stuff falls under heavy handed rules, theres a dessert here in Sweden(probably broadly the nordics) called basically Calf Dance, and its made with the first milk produced after a cow births a calf which is unpasteurized, which means you cant sell it commercially but only directly to people, so you need to know a farmer personally to get this stuff and it makes this amazing pudding like thing which you eat with regular warm milk, some sugar and some cinnamon and its one of my favourite things on planet earth but i can only get it like once in a blue moon when some farmer my parents know sells it.

        chicken tikka masala is the official British national dish because some guy was trying to make a curry but didn't have the ingredients so he just threw some things together and made the first dish of what is now called chicken tikka masala.
