Are there any cuisines that come close to being perfect?
Out of the widely liked ones:
>Chinese
Mediocre aroma, too many offals, and seems to be mostly soy sauce + alliums (in Eastern China at least)
>Indian
Most dishes use roughly the same assortment of spices
Generally no pork or beef
>Italian
Limited assorment of seasonings
>Mexican
Hardly any vegetables (same is true of all of Latin America)

Etc.
I'm not sure what to say about French, but someone else could fill me in on that

>> No.13666741

>Japanese
Not much use of spices

Not many vegetables, double starch is common

Vietnamese cuisine is pretty golden tier due to French influence. Solid noodle soups like Pho and Bun bo hue. Beef stew. Vietnamese baguettes are amazing. Good coffee (second largest exporter in the world). There is a very good balance with Vietnamese food when it comes to meat and vegetables.

Vietnamese people are also the most powerful race in the world.

It's true.
When you order dishes from most Caribbean or Asian restaurants for instance, it is accompanied with a vegetable. Such as cabbage, okra, bok choy, etc.
Yes Mexican uses cilantro for garnish, but it doesn't seem like you're likely to get a proper serving of vegetables unless you order a squash dish.
Though the rest of Latin America is definitely worse in regard to that.
When I went to Ecuador, the food was good, but double starch with no vegetables was very common.

Nigga, only one squash was mentioned (zucchine). Maybe two if you retardedly count squash blossoms as squash. I mean I guess they are in the same way that wet flour is bread.
Espinacas are spinach and mentioned in the post. Other leafy greens include col rizada (kale; often shredded and stewed similarly to how Americans prepare collards), col (plain ol' cabbage, cooked in various ways such as ensalada de col IE Mexican cole slaw; I rec you try it sometime as it has some ingredients which might surprise you) and rampas/puerros salvajes (onion ramps; look like spinach leaves attached to a tiny, soft onion bulb).
One that might surprise you is radish greens, which are eaten in the north. They're usually mixed into beaten eggs and cooked scrambled or as omelettes then often stuffed into tortillas for breakfast.

Honestly, I thought about it and it really isn't. Even when the spices may be the same, each dish can taste drastically different.

Americans have no idea how bad it really is. No one in china knows what the fuck beef and broccoli is or sweet and sour pork. Chinese food is disgusting. Literally the worst parts to eat of any animal. Makes sense because chinks are the race of humans closest to animals. They make disgusting noises when they eat, slurp everything, men in the streets lift their fucking wife beaters over their sweaty stomachs while laughing and chewing with their mouths full of food. Like what kind of idiot decided 2 sticks is the most practical way to eat grains of fucking rice. Starving Nigerians who eat grass have a better diet than the average chinese.

Before the 1920's the Mexican diet was almost vegetarian, most Mexican dishes that make it into the US are modern street food or were created during the revolution (Thus why it is all the same) so of course they are meat based since the government before the Revolution was pushing meat consumption.

Aztecs had the "no such thing as plagues" philosophy when farming, so there is an entire classification of leafy green (quelites). The base of the Aztec diet was Corn, Squash/Pumpkin, Chilies, Beans; Meat was eaten very few times.

some people are unfortunate enough to be born with a genetic disposition that makes cilantro taste like soap. It appears that you are one of those people.

Banh mi not as in the sandwich but as in the baguette, its a flavorful stew type dish with coconut water used in place of regular water, and you dip the baguette in the soup or tear chunks and put them into it.

Depends on the cook, the dish and the region of the country.

My experience with the markets across france and spain (I've been to both) was, they smell like rancid garbage, none of the food looks appealing, and it's not even that unique. The restaurants are unimpressive and a waste of money.
I'm not joking when I say a 6/10 vietnamese restaurant and asian fusion bar/grill were the only decent meals I had in spain. Spanish wine all smells like dumpster runoff (literally). Paris smelled like piss (we all know that by now).
French countryside was nice. The food was alright.
But the only french food I've ever craved after eating it (in france) were the danish butter cookies and belgian chocolates.
