    hard disagree.

    yhea “white” American food is shite. because White culture, fundamentally does not exist (white as a culture was a way to erase the historical heritage of immigrants to create a blank slate group that was superior to natives/slaves). and once modernised its all corporate franchise slop.

    and it shows. however, other subgroups have a rich culinary history. look at soul food for example, or when the immigrant heritage is allowed to shine Italian influence with NY pizza… or that bizarre mix of when a Chicago Italian hired a black cook from the South mixing southern slave recipes with Italian, to create Chicago pizza…
