just because something is simple doesn't mean it's bad cuisine. definately a shitty way of life though. add some vegetables to your diet sure, but campfire cooking will never be "bad" food unless you purposefully fuck up.

Everything is pulped down to a mush served with tasteless flat bread.
Choice of hot goo or slightly chilled goo

blegh

meh we are the meat country, stealing a cow was legal for most of our countrys history as long as you gave the hide back.
When you have that kind of access to meat why the fuck would you bother with anything else?
We now know that eating nothing but asado kills you and bifes de chorizo no longer weight close to two pounds, still i can eat quality meat for every meal if i want to for dirt cheap

There is no such thing as bad cuisine. All cuisine comes from whatever the conditions of a place were plus time. Food never came easy for anyone in the world until perhaps in the last 20 years.

There's a reason why things are the way they are, finding it distasteful or disgusting is a matter of where you grew up and ate when you were younger.

no he's right...

If you visit middle mexico in the little shit villas no one cares about all the food is atrocious.

The only food that's worth anything in the country is some of the city street food that has emerged in the last couple decades - and really that was all influenced by other cultures.

Kebap doesn't count as British food and is a shit street vendor food on par with a decent ball park brat to begin with.

Just because an entire generation of mothers and grandmothers learned to cook on leftover WW2 rations is no excuse for how bad British cooking still is.
>>
American here. I actually like English cuisine, pasties, pies, and such. I also like tea a lot. There's a place near where I used to live that had a nice selection of teas and made killer Yorkshire pudding.

I've had some really strange Korean food in my life that I wasn't too crazy about. I love kimchi though.

Even Russian I've had some decent meals: pickles, cabbage, roasted chicken, and vodka so cold it was starting to become viscous.

I dunno, I love most food. I'm taking my out for Lebanese tomorrow for Mother's Day. Lebanese is probably my very favorite.

I have been to Ecuador a couple times actually. Tried "cuy" (which was okay), hornado,fritada, ceviche (ketchup in ceviche, yikes), llampingachos , empanadas (weakness of mine), papas con cuero, blood sausage, fanesca (once is good for me), ecebollado, and of course, my fav guatita, I can say it is very good and underrated , and I haven't tried much regional cuisine from the coast, but I will make it my next mission when I head over there. I love the exotic fruits too.
>>
>>7649688
I had mostly stews when I was there, like seco de gallina. The one time I tried ceviche, it didn't have ketchup.

And yeah I had fresh pineapple that tasted so fucking good.

I hear a cuisine faux pas a lot of Ecuadorians do is put two starches on the dish, like potatoes and rice.

I'm curious about one thing though, I had a meal that was delicious but one thing almost ruined it, there was something in the dish that was awful and had a really bad aftertaste, I think it was a thing that looked like an onion. But didn't taste like any onion I've ever had.

I don't know how British food is so bland but it is. It's the same as Mongolian/North Asian food, true Mongolian food. Being in such a cold climate and without a lot of fishing locations, you basically resort to eating really tough meats and having a lot of vegetarian dishes. Most of it is bland due to the lack of spices, especially in the steppes. At least the Brits had access to a wide variety of spices.

To truly experience mex food you have to befriend a family and attend to whatever gathering they are having , so that you eat the food they make for their family. Which is way better than any food you may encounter in the streets. Have some mole with them while you see all their old ladys gather to make tortillas and serve them to you rigth from the comal

To be fair, I lived in Japan for almost 9 years and I agree with him.

A few things are awesome about their food but it's mostly cuz their restaurants (and cost of living) is dirt cheap, along with their alcohol.

Half of their food is stolen/warped recipes from China and Korea and apart from one or two awesome dishes like sushi, champru or nabe it's generally all pretty bland looking and tasting. White and brown in colour, no real strong tastes because they rely on the SaShiSuSeSou of cooking too much.

Injera is classified as a sourdough bread because it is made the same way as sourdough you will find here, though we tend to avoid eating things made in corners of dirty huts. Maybe some people have issues with the grain, but I haven't heard of it until now.

im british, man, and our food sucks. there is no real cooking culture except for celebrity meme chefs and such. people here really don't know good food for the most part. i mean authentic british cuisine is just meat and potatoes cooked in the easiest and blandest way possible, with maybe some kind of onion for taste. sure it's edible but it's just supposed to fill you up.

eastern european food isn't brilliant but there is more of an appreciation of food than in the uk for sure. also the produce in a lot of those countries just tastes better because it's mostly untainted and natural.

i've heard finnish food is really bad but i've never been there.

america isn't much better than the uk though desu. like the uk, people are impressed with anything exotic with big flavours, average american can't cook for shit, food is loaded with all kinds of shit and generally tastes of nothing which is compensated by adding fat and sugar(or corn syrup).

I think to raise the level of discussion about the worth of each cuisine we'd need a criteria of what makes food "good". Analogies to other arts/enjoyments would be helpful.

Some obvious remarks:
http://www.food.unt.edu/philfood/#d

The consensus seems to be that literal-taste (as opposed to taste as general preferences) is primary: food on its own terms (i.e. ignoring stuff like visual, symbolic, auditory, aroma, social, technical/craft achievements). The many ways literal-taste can reach and affect the diner would be secondary. Since, like the other arts, that could devolve into a "lol everything is equal cus there's no objective criteria", the criteria of what makes good taste would need defining. I think that would come from a combination of nutrition, technical appreciation, and prioritising the tastes of the best critics (those who know most about nutrition and technical skill, and have the most experience, and incorporating how healthy and cultured they are in general).

I know, this could be a place where we discuss what we're cooking. what we're planning to cook, where and what we've eaten.

British food was bad during the war years because we were an island nation defending themselves and the whole of Europe from the axis of evil, while america just waited and watched tv and chomped on hamburgers
>>
>>7649175

>>7657960
I'm British but i'm pretty sure that hamburgers didn't become a staple until after the war (IIRC it was the 50's).

But yes you are right, America waited to see what would happen in the war. Frankly anyone would have done what they had done;

>Some nazi sympathy/support at home
>One of the belligerents you fought a war of independence with
>war is unpopular with the masses
>war is costly

And back to food, we had better things to do with our country than to re-learn cuisine.

From a broken bankrupt nation we built ourselves into a global superpower, a nation comprising less than 1% of the world population, we dictate how the world should progress.

More than a fair trade-off I feel.

Nah m8. The traditional patty-on-a-bun-with-condiments hamburger has been around since the 1880s in the US and popular since the early 1900s. It was really our first national and endemic dish (ie. not regional like gumbo, imported from yurop like waffles, stolen from natives like Cornbread or too simple to be a "dish", like muffins); you really can't find a food more generically American than a hamburger.

>The traditional patty-on-a-bun-with-condiments hamburger has been around since the 1880s in the US and popular since the early 1900s.
It was derived from a German dish (from Hamburg, no less!) but that was cooked quite differently.
