I think we need these smaller distinctions to have a meaningful conversation about food. If not, French crepes would be too similar to Norwegian pancakes, pizza and quiche could be the same if you ignore the yeast and tomato sauce, and if you really want to stretch it you could group Japanese ramen and Polish pasta soup together. In some ways I want to agree with you, for good ideas usually pop up multiple times and places, but I am too fond of traveling and tasting different food traditions to give in.

Chef here. I have at least 100 recipes for various types of pancakes the world over.

Never underestimate an Americans willingness to take their single racist heirloom joke and run it into the Martians trench thinking it's a fact.

Fair.

Polish rosół is much more similar to French consomme than to ramen though. The stretch to ramen would be rather significant.

Saying Kimchi and Saurkraut are the same thing is heresy in some parts. Salt water, cabbage, spices, time. Same damn thing the way I cook.

I am not a chef.
