What do you enjoy shoving in your pie hole?

Mine:

Yes, I like British cuisine. Sue me.

I'd sue you but if you like British cuisine you probably don't have much to sue for ;P

"Hell in Europe is where the German are the policemen, the English are the cooks, the French are the mechanics, the Swiss are the lovers, and the Italians organize everything."

Is your name Leonidas? Because you seem ready to dine in hell.

Now when someone posts that they like Japanese and Chinese food do they mean actual Japanese and Chinese cuisine or American version of it?

S: Southern Cuisine. Fried Chicken and BBQ all the way.

A: American, Greek, Italian, Japanese, German (This is why I don't use your tier list maker).

B: Mexican, Chinese, Indian, Egyptian.

Everything else I either haven't eaten or haven't eaten enough to have an opinion on it.

Caveats:
I love sushi, and most American-version of Japanese food. I haven't been to Japan and the closest I get is "little tokyo" in LA.

I put Turkish food not just because of Turkish food but in general Middle Eastern cuisine – which I actually did have in the ME and it's super DUPER good.

Chinese flag – i never had actual chinese food, but I do like American version of Chinese food.

I put Georgian food above Russian cuisine because I grew up with Russian cuisine and I find it meh, compared to the more Caucasus and Central Asian cuisine which I felt the Georgian flag represented better. And yes, Polish is different and better than Russian food.

I've been to both China and Japan (spent much more time in China though) and my take is that Americanized Japanese food is better than authentic Japanese food, whereas authentic Chinese food is better than Americanized Chinese food.

I found authentic Japanese food surprisingly bland, although it has enough merits to still be S or A tier.

Meanwhile authentic Chinese food has like dozens of regional varieties, my favorite of which is Sichuan cuisine wherein every single dish is bright fucking red (just search it up on Google images) because of the insane amount of spice they put in everything. Americanized Chinese food on the other hand feels stripped down and designed to accommodate very milquetoast palates. I do appreciate how cheap it is though.

Bri'ish food

I adore haggis and black pudding and kidney pudding and all the other Bri'ish dishes that repulse Americans. I ate them for the first time on a cruise vacation (coincidentally the same trip where I visited China and Japan) and since then I've been searching for them in America to no avail.

Did you know that it's literally illegal to import authentic haggis? I know because I've paid exorbitant prices to buy tins of fake watered-down haggis on Amazon. Something in the ingredients list is banned by the US govt., I think it's the sheep entrails.

I rather like fish and chips
