>that other one guy who thinks that every americanized dish is always better than its original version

>that one guy
seems to me like you're describing half the people on /ck/
I don't really blame Canadians, though. They have poutine and breakfast food. Yeah, yeah, the pea soup is yellow and that makes it special, we know.

>>6802083
>yfw i am that guy

>>6802083
We're all like that here in France.

>>6802103

>that one guy who says "Freedom Fries" unironically because Fox News told him it was patriotic to do so

but american food is terrible

just like the whole country

>>6802083
That's a really stupid haircut, how can people walk around with that trendy shit and not feel like a complete fool?

>>6802122
it looks like he just took his hat off

don't be salty over some celebrity who looks better than you even when he (?) is having a bad hair day

>>6802142
People pay like $60 bucks for that dumb haircut.

>>6802083
he's right you know? just take a look at cheese.

>>6802163
you don't get it do you

have you ever been outside?

>>6802168
Yeah I do get it, people are gonna look back in ten years and wonder "what the hell was i thinking?"

>>6802097
it is

>>6802175
>people have been wearing hats for ten years
a simple "no" would have been adequate

>>6802179
You're clueless, sorry about your back luck dummy.

>>6802179
The style of hats have changed dramatically throughout the years. A lot of the older ones look pretty fucking dumb

>>6802187
That must be it. You should complain about his hipster glasses too. Why can't people just wear normal wireframe??!
>>6802188
No hat worn by western men in the last fifty years has failed to produce hat hair, other than jew hats

>>6802193
I think the point of this argument was lost along the way

>>6802083
>that one guy who uses Xavier Dolan reaction faces

Don't

>>6802195
>that other guy who recognizes obscure Canadian actresses

>>6802202
I hail from Québec and i'm exposed to the faggotries of this tool every day

>>6802203
I was thinking it was probably bieber but I guess I was wrong

why do all canadian celebrities look the same?

>>6802204
Inbreeding.

>>6802210
that can't be it. look at the rapist radio DJ, he's clearly not genetically related but he still looks like he's trying to be a middle aged rapist version of bieber

also Q sucks now that the main person is that dumb whore he molested

>>6802116
>confirmed flyover fatass

>>6802083

What even is, American food.

>>6802278
Food with added fructose and salt to stop it tasting so god damned bland.

>>6802278
If you have to ask, you should start looking into it.

>>6802142
>he (?)
hehehe

>>6802278
A bastard amalgamation of every other food culture on earth mixed into the general framework of northern/western european cooking techniques plus whatever the natives didn't take to their graves after the spanish/english/french settlers got through with them.

public transportation is for poor people.

>>6802424
Yeah, all those congressmen, lobbyists, and business executives taking the Acela every day doing it because they're poor

>Taco Bell? Ha! Americanized trash. Give me an authentic Mexican street taco any day, the fattier the better of course!

>>6802431
taco bell and any fast food is a horrible example of American food
they butcher our food culture more than any other
cheap and convenient, though

>>6802424
>amtrak
>public transportation

This is why Europeans make fun of us.

>>6802448
>cheap and convenient, though
WOW IT'S ALMOST LIKE THAT'S THE POINT

Also Taco Bell employees are universally Mexican, we should call it Mexican food at this point.

>>6802424
Public transportation is the best form of transportation. Its just racist fucks like you refuse to support it and it doesn't improve or expnd. If you need a car in your city it isn't a real city.

>>6802541
New York confirmed for the only real city in america

>>6802204
>I was thinking it was probably bieber but I guess I was wrong
fuck, me too

>>6802218

it really does. It's all "sjw" now with Shad; I can't even listen to it anymore
cbc radio1 4 lyf

>>6802456
>WOW IT'S ALMOST LIKE THAT'S THE POINT
No shit, that's why I said it.
Those are the only positive qualities I can think of for fast food. There's plenty of food that is cheaper and plenty that is more convenient, but they just aren't facsimiles of full dishes like fast food is, for better and for worse (almost always better).

well shit. or whale shit,

>>6802544
Theres a lot more cities outside of America

>>6802424
public transportation is for developed countries

>>6802097
Is that budget Donald trump

>>6802421
I hope the beautiful American ALCO FA never gives way to these European dildos

>>6802083
Everyone I know (Australian) disregards "American cuisine" because it's literally just fat or sugar laden versions of food that's been a made by another country.. I'm not overexaggerating either.

American cuisine suits their culture loud, ignorant, and the belief anything outside of that is too subtle, too weak

>>6802083
>Wisconsin 'cheese'
>California 'wine'
My sides

>>6802083
American 'cuisine' is literally just dishes stolen from other countries with extra corn syrup added.

>>6802278
And butyric acid to stabilise the cheese powder.

>>6803334
>>6802332

>>6802204
You mean it's not? Who is it then?

>>6802116
I freaking hate those ppl who say freedom fries.

>>6802116
LOL i say FREEDOM fries HAHHAA im am mexican HAHAHA YOU CANT STOP ME FAGGOTS

I also say yeah uh i WANT AN AMERICAN! CITIZEN to make my FREEDOM fries with AMERICAN Potatoes IF AINT AMERICAN I DONT WANT IT!


MFW i laugh my ass off at how much misery i cause

MFW 4chan TELLS ME EVERYTHING i need to do to troll and piss people off

HAHAHA MUAHAHHA YOU CANT STOP ME!!!

Why Americans fail so hard at cooking? They are literally unable to elaborate authentic dishes, just recreate soggy, greasy, disgusting versions of other cuisines. At best they can reproduce decent recipes but their "national cuisine" is stagnant, if it exists at all.

>>6807308
>why do Americans LALALALLALALALA??

This should be a bannable offense on every board

>>6802083
>everything that's non-american automatically tastes better
When it comes to chicken, pork, bread, wine, many vegetables and most cheese this is correct.

I really appreciate how cheap food is here in the US, but the trade off for that is that our standards are really fucking low. If you want better than crap it's a pain in the ass to source your food.

>>6807328
>when it comes to chicken, pork, bread, wine, many vegetables, and most cheeses, this is correct

That's actually horrifically incorrect

Although, generally speaking, on average throughout the entire country, you're going to find more consistently good products of these places in different countries

>>6802083
It's harsh really.
Our food industry has never been anything other than terrible and we don't really have any native cuisine but we do have some fine restaurants on the East and West coasts that do good versions of ethnic and European cuisine.
We are unfairly lambasted by the rest of the world.

>>6802178
I love me some Fazoli's with the family every weekend!

wa la!

>>6802097
I didn't know American Spurdo was based on a specific person.

>>6803332
>stolen
>not brought by the people who moved here in ages past
It's like you're willfully stupid.

The cuisine of the Rocky Mountains is the best cuisine in the world.

>mothafuckin BISON

Rest of the world, are you even trying?

>>6802421
you should add Canada's VIA rail. Fucking garbage and expensive as fuck,

>>6807560
Canada has bison too, africa has Zebu which because its not farmed is fucking full flavoured. Europe and asia has their own Oxen. The entire world has a cow thats not a cow that they eat.

>>6808250
Aye what the fuck is Canadian cuisine? In fact, what is the native cuisine of most anglosphere.

>>6808950
>british cuisine
legitimately the worst. i'd rather eat american burgers and deep fried lard every day than british 'food'

>>6808950
meat

>>6807490
That picture is older than the internet how old are you.

>>6802278
Barbecue basically. God bless the south, they carry American cuisine.

>>6802278
Pizza, BBQ, cajun food, Subs, hamburgers, fried chicken. Hell even 90% of Chinese food in the US at this point

If you're European I'm sure you'll argue and bullshit about some of those kinda having a kind of sorta similar dish in Europe thats not as good, but the versions in America are at this point totally different than anything similar else where unless they were copying the American version

TRUE STORY:

When I was in Amsterdam these two American girls came to my hostel and started talking loudly about the healing qualities of cats. Then they pulled out their McDonald's bags.

The fat one says, "Wow the Chicken McNuggets in Amsterdam are almost as good as back home!"

Everyone in the room plans to start snickering when the leave. The snickering was without equal.

>>6802098
yes, yes we do have poutine. Montreal has great spots to eat. I recommend Maam Balduuc

>american food is bad
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_American_foods
surely you cannot say brunswick stew is bad

>>6811196
That has to be one of the worst lists I've seen on Wiki, and I've seen a lot of bad lists on that shithole. At least some people are thinking about it, I guess that is a start for them.

>>6811887
>everyone is wrong except me
this is new!

>>6811913
Where the fuck did you get that out of what I said?
Why are you such a dense faggot?
Did you write that shitty list?
If so, would you like some help to make it better?

This apparently sums it up.

The butter chicken chips are actually tasty as fuck, though.

>>6812019
>moving to China soon
I'm so sorry. I had to live in china for six months. The majority of the country is a fucking hell hole.

>>6812075
I don't have a BA so the list of countries I can teach in until I get a year or two of experience is pretty limited, and China offers me free housing and reimbursed flights.

Not to mention round trip vacations to Bangkok for under $400.

I lived in Richmond, BC for a couple years so I've got a pretty decent idea of what living in China will be like.

>>6812090
Be ready for the pollution. It's nothing like what you're used to. Also, public sanitation is terrible, shit in the streets, the constant smell of decay & excrement, and worse. Also, though this is just a cultural thing, Chinese people don't have western style manners. Fucking christ they can come off as rude a lot.

>>6802083
>that one guy who has tasted all sorts of disgusting things
>Don't worry, anon, this fungus riddled snail snatch is good. Try it ;)
N-no thanks, that's ok

>>6812096
Thanks for the heads up, I've been doing mass amounts of research in preparation for this. It's obviously going to take some adaptation but I'm trying to go over there with as much prep as possible.

I know it's going to be one hell of a change.

>>6811075
>Caribbean
Which continent is the Caribbean associated with?

>>6811075
Anon, if there's one thing the Americans know how to do it's barbecue. Just because ancient Africans used to roast lions on a stick over a fire doesn't mean BBQ isn't pretty essential American food.

>>6802428
poorfag detected

>>6812617
North America.

>>6810409
yeah, cos the people responsible for it weren't white. whites can't food. prove me wrong.

>>6803332
Fuck you, I like Texas Barbecue.

>>6811075
Why do people get so cheeky with this shit, when you can say that Greek and Italian food stole shit from the middle east during their trades? Marco Polo stole food recipes when he traveled and brought back foreign spices. This can go on forever.

>>6812897
True, it is the same with all cuisine. It's just another shitty 4chan meme and banter to hate on 'Murca that can be well executed or retarded. It can be fun to think through all the things that come to mind, at the very least.

>>6812090

Former China teacher here

Don't be scared of anything over there, experiencing a year living and working in China is life changing. Try to travel and don't take your work too seriously unless your employer is super strict, most of your students won't give a shit.

Stay away from Chinese women, there are a lot of exchange students/foreign teachers and other kinds of people around. Ever made it with a North Korean girl? I have.
