That's another reason I can't like America sometimes. I mean, they'll disrepect another culture but they'll eat their food like it's nothing. That's so retarded.

unfortunately for you op you are correct but also at the same time a closed minded unintellectual faggot. America is still a relatively new country and as such has yet to develop a cuisine in and of itself save for native American cuisine and Spanish influenced food. take a look at France for instance.these so called food snobs were eating shit for the first couple hundred years, and those who associate the French with silverware are bafoons, Caterina de Medici (Italy) brought her finest chefs, and silverware to France.so if it was not for Italians French cuisine would not have developed to what it is today, and as such the same should be expected of America. and if you look at todays food culture, that is to say the educated public, people are becoming more and more interested in other cultures food, including their own. so i will leave you with this thought, if people treat southern food and cajun and creole as a cuisine type in other country's (which they do) than why can those not be considered american cuisine? cuisine is not what the ritch eat, it is what the peasant makes out of measly scraps that tastes amazing, pot au feu, jambalaya, rillettes, polenta, are true cuisine. oh and by the way the true american dish is Cioppino, look it up, its the real san francisco treat, not rice r roni.

Actually Cajun cuisine came from Acadia, which is in Canada
, and was recognized as a different offshoot from French food, these people used French technique yes, but so does every other cuisine in the world except in wok cooking, Cajun is its own cuisine and has nothing to do with French cuisine

Anyone goes and says Ameri food is uneatable got some lying up the phone.
Chicken nuggets? well thats just golden pieces of baked savory lip smackers, burger? mm we show the germans how to do a secret sauce huhuh and finally. pizza well we took that stinky thin shit from itailia and gave it some soft dough, bitta meat, turned it into satisfyin norishment so dont be lying buttfuck
well generally american food is disgusting shit bought at a fast food chain. but there are other kinds of american food like southern cooking. chicken, collard greens, black eye peas with rice, mac&cheese, yams etc.
really we just steal other regional ideas and corrupt them and turn them into over processed crap.

OK guys, here's the deal.
Anything with peanuts or corn is fucking American. If I make a pizza and say "American food" you say "No it's Italian."
Bullshit. If you've eaten Italian-pizza, then you know it's different toppings and shit from American. "OK, it's a ripoff of Italian."
Well, if that's your metric, anything using corn in Europe is a ripoff of American food because corn comes from the US. Repeat ad nauseum with other foods that originate here.
Beyond that, chili was invented in the fucking States. That's American. And you can make it healthy and tasty with proper skills.
And Italian food is not a ripoff of anything? Bullfuckingshit. Noodles came from China via Marco Polo, so Italian just rips off Chinese food by your metric. And don't get me started on the seafood-based Italian recipes, which co-opt Hellenic recipes and recipes taken from all over the Roman empire.
Etc. etc. etc.

Agreed. A lot of American food is adaptations of food brought over by immigrants from other countries, but I would definitely call it American seeing how the American version is distinguishably different.
America is huge so it's impossible to even begin to list all the American food, but there is southern cuisine, barbeque, cajun, creole, Tex-Mex, Californian, a lot of US versions of ethnic food, etc. etc.
