You people have obviously never been to New Orleans. There is not better food in the world. (That I've tried at least) Tourist traps don't count either.

French and caribbean influenced (which is actual good food), not british-based like 99% of the US.

Lots of US food is based on German food, which also helps explain why it's so bad.

Peruvian food is better

Do love the amount of tubers they eat, but I don't know if I've had much that beats a proper gumbo and some bread pudding.

Stop it, the US doesn't have anything remotely close to the bottom of the barrel that is the Toast Sandwich.

I'm sure you're just joking but jic the infamous toast sandwich is not and never has never been a widespread British food, it was a single recipe published in a 19th century cookbook as food suitable for 'invalids' that was just been picked up by the writers of listicles and then misinterpreted as a widespread British dish by the greater internet

But the US equivalent is the syrup sandwich...
