  • Misconceptions about American Food.

    Europeans, I've made this thread just for you.

    I'll start by asking, what is it that you think is American Food?

    Hmm... I appeared to have deleted almost all of my text. Threadjackers, want a shot at this?

            American Food is Fast Food. I don't think there is room for misconception, since it has become a global 'experience'.

              Fast food is not what Americans eat all the time... When you go home for a home cooked meal you don't eat burgers and fries.

                  The general conception of American food is "fast food". I'm not sure that's fair, but it's probably right.

                  Does the USA have a "national dish"? I very much doubt it... other than whatever is eaten on Thanksgiving (pumpkin pie?), I would imagine that to eat in the USA would be a truely cosmopolitan experience. You can't pigeonhole "American food" because I'm not entirely sure it even exists...

                  Anyone agree?

                          Of course there is other american food outside of Fast Food, but that doesn't matter - It's the food which is associated with america both from it's own citzens, and from people all over the world. It is the american food.

                            Hot-dogs = fast food. Burgers = fast food. Kentucky Fried Chicken = fast food.
