Is there any surviving cuisine from the original inhabitants of the USA and Canada, or is it all basically like pic related?

>English is not my native language. When people write "America", I've learned to assume that they mean the US specifically. I accidentally went the other way around here.
>Aztec and Maya cuisine was very similar to that of peoples living on the modern day territory of the USA and Canada. For example, they both had the Three Sisters as a staple, which the Iroquois also did.
>They were the only more specific articles I could find.

A devastating plague and a subsequent genocide and displacement tends to wipe out cultural history when none of that history is written down.

Eh, in the north there was less of the forest gardens used in the south and aside from turkey different game animals.
There was also a lot of variation between tribes from urine fermented acorn "olives" to acorn flours used for simple breads to tree flours, a sour drink like lemonade made from sumac, pemmican.

They use sumac in middle eastern cooking as well, although I'm sure someone like you would consider the idea of eating middle eastern food too terrifying to consider.

Anon meant http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxicodendron_vernix
That is a species of sumac apart from the one used for spices. Poison ivy is also related.

[Anonymous No.6297515]

>>6297502
Yes, but poison sumac is a completely different plant and when someone says "sumac" in the context of food, only a retard would assume it's the poison variety

[Anonymous No.6297549]

>>6297515
Yes. Allow me to explain it so your obviously mental deficiencies can comprehend.

See, Anon was doing something called "shitposting" or "funposting."
Shitposting is defined as creating a post that either sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people with inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic content in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

Do you understand? Say you understand. Then have a biscuit and some warm milk, turn off your lights and go to sleep.

Why the fuck would I eat a fucking biscuit with warm milk? Biscuits are for splitting in half like an English Muffin and putting your KFC tendies in between em.

the pimas sure aren't eating their indigenous diet. and the tribe is in crisis mode 'cause they eat nothing but white people food.

according to an epidemiologist i know, almost 100% of them will develop type 2 diabetes at some point.

the internet says only half of pima adults have diabetes, but it's actually way worse than that. more like 90% of adults.

>NIDDK research conducted on the Pima Indians for the past 30 years has helped scientists prove that obesity is a major risk factor in the development of diabetes. One-half of adult Pima Indians have diabetes and 95% of those with diabetes are overweight

Well it is native american cuisine just from a time when they were forced on reservations and had to subsist on government rations.

>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aztec_cuisine

>The Aztecs practiced ritualistic cannibalism. Victims, usually prisoners of war, were sacrificed in public on top of temples and pyramids by cutting out their hearts. The bodies were then thrown down to the ground where they were dismembered. The pieces were then distributed to the elite, which were mostly warriors and priests. The meat was consumed in the form of stews flavored only with salt and eaten with corn tortillas, but without the otherwise ubiquitous chili. In the late 1970s the anthropologist Michael Harner suggested that the Aztecs had resorted to large-scale, organized cannibalism to make up for a supposed protein deficiency in the diet. This idea gained limited support from some scholars, but has been shown to be based on unfounded assumptions about eating habits, agriculture and demographics, making it a highly unlikely scenario.[19]
