    You’re just talking about the pre made shit you get at the grocery store in the frozen foods isle.

    The US has the most varied and some of the best foods in the world, because there’s no other nation on earth that has such a merltings pot worth of cultures, heritages, and people. Our BBQ and smoked meats are the best. Chicago’s take on pizza is better that traditional Italian pizza. Our “chinese food” isn’t really Chinese cuisine. It’s a hybrid version and mainly was created in the US. Hamburgers are American creations. Key lime pie. Jambalaya! I mean, we made chocolate chip cookies. The Reuben sandwich that everyone assumes came from like Germany? Nope. USA. American made Chili is also great.

    You can have your handful of French cuisine. The US has everyone’s menu.

      You’re confusing eating out with what people normally eat in their day to day.

      In my experience every large city in a prosperous enough nation has restaurants from the best culinary traditions, and that was also my experience when visiting the US.

      However what’s available for people to prepare food at home and what people normally eat, is a whole different story.
