Easily the best of any national food. Faggots on this board say burgers like an insult when it's genuinely the best food conceived by, for, and of America.

Japan runs a close 2nd with their curry. That shit is good.

It's 100% the hot dog
Based on the European Wurst, is elevated into a piece of legendary Americana cuisine with the replacement of the traditional sausage with a processed, rubbery, industrially-produced cylinder made of questionable waste meats, which vaguely resembles the sausage in shape.

It encapsulates American culture - the elevation of European traditions and customs through commodification, downgrading of core components and mass industrial production for the purpose of capitalistic profiteering. It is the epitome of American culture. Better yet, the garnish provided with the hot dog even resembles natural pickle condiment commonly called "relish", yet is presented in an unnaturally, industrially modified neon-green hue, treated with unknown chemicals to achieve the color, which is considered to be desirable by Americans. This gives the American hot dog its flare and its unmistakably American identity.

You might argue Hamburgers resemble this. However, you can still make a Hamburger with meat that comes from acceptable sources which has not been pulverized into a liquid and reshaped into the desired shape. But you can't make a hot dog with a sausage of adequate quality because, once the mystery "meat" cylinder is replaced, the hot dog ceases to be a hot dog and reverts to its ancestral form, the Wurst. You can't serve an American hot dog without the brightly luminous relish without compromising its integrity.

For these reasons, the hot dog is the most American food there is. Period.

This or the humble pork tenderloin sandwich

I get what you're saying, however I've never seen relish that looks like that, relish looks like this. Mustard is probably the overall more popular condiment for a hot dog, relish may be more common than ketchup however

for me it's biscuits and sausage gravy

>losing wars
You misspelled "quitting".

>>16580159
>plastic cheese.
I assume you mean American "cheese" made with oil instead of dairy?
I can't even find that at the store any more.
Most American cheese is 100% dairy.

And just what is "this"?
Looks like chicken salad and guacamole.
How did you think this was so iconic people would recognize it?

Yeah, it absolutely has to be BBQ of some sort. I'm not gonna pick a particular region's BBQ, either; half the fun is the range of styles across this wonderful country.

>>16580107
For some reason it's a hot dog and apple pie.

Barbecue, according to research done by The Smithsonian, began during the Colonial Era in Virginia. Colonists observed Native Americans smoking and drying meats over an open flame. Then, the British settlers put their own spin on it with basting, using mostly butter or vinegar, to keep the meat moist while grilling over an open flame. Years later, as slaves from the Caribbean were brought to the U.S., they also brought their own flavors, spices, and techniques. Thus, barbecue was born.

Barbecue is super American

>Colonists observed Native Americans smoking and drying meats over an open flame
lol
bongs have never even heard of cooking meat over a flame/coals until they saw the natives do it. that's how bland bong cuisine has always been.

>>16580125
>water soup
>good
why is japanese cuisine so hilariously bad?
the main staple dish of nipponland is sushi which is literally just fish on rice
their curry is just watered soup
ramen is just inferior version of authentic Chinese noodles
even instant noodles is taiwanese and not from japan

why could the nips not make a satisfactory cuisine?

>>16582362
I think most Americans, myself included, consider chicago dogs a total meme. why the fuck would I dye my relish blue?

>>16582129
You have autism

>>16582362
>just fucking food dye
What a pointless meme

>>16582548
Chicago are great, but you've got to be realistic.
I can't but poppy-seeded buns, so I've got to sprinkle a little poppy seed on.
I can't get sport peppers, so i mince up banana peppers.
And I ain't dying no relish.
But I do love me some Chicago dogs.
