>On second thought America does have a sense of food, but the incredible proliferation of processed foods ruins it.
Disheartening as it is that we're losing so much of our edible heritage to packaged foods, it's not all Big Macs and Hot Pockets. For example, Southern food gets a lot of flack thanks to Paula Deen sensationalizing what were supposed to be special occasion dishes, but traditional Southern cuisine is full of vegetables.

People forget that America was largely a agricultural society until fairly recently and our traditional foods reflect this.
