I often feel like when Europeans make fun of American food, they’re specifically making fun of German and Dutch-derived American foods, so maybe leave the other American foods out of it

@gcvsa yeah it’s more about the mass market version of those foods. I’m certain almost all cuisines done with real ingredients and such are amazing. just so increasingly hard to find very often, especially with the foods that industrialized first

@skinnylatte As a person of German American descent, I heartily disagree with this. There is amazing German American food.

@skinnylatte I mean, there's America, and there's America. My family is English/German/Filipino from Queens, NYC, the single most diverse county in the entire country. There probably doesn't exist a cuisine on Earth that you can't get in Queens without even look that hard.

@gcvsa people who say these ignorant things are very happy to deny non-white people the label of American, too, and have never experienced the type of diversity present in even a single block of NYC
