Why is traditional food in the americas suck? Outside of Mexico

because you touch yourself

Because there was little to no civilization in most of the Americas until europe came over. Lots of tribes, no real civilization.

Because 90% of them died to disease before we ever met any of them.

>traditional food in the americas...
Because its all peasant food. 'Authentic' mexican cuisine is one of those artsy words like 'hand crafted' or 'small batch'.

Here in SoCal I see 'authentic' places pop up all the time and either change or go out of business. Americans take what it good about latin foods and then throw away all the pleb tier parts. That's why we have "Tex-Mex" and "So-Mex". It's to let you know it's 'inspired' by latin food, but not shitty like latin food.

The last 'authentic' place I went had frikin' green beans, corn, and UNMASHED beans (like in a bean salad) in a burrito. They didn't last 2 months.

Can you please stop making asinine assertions?

That 'Mexican' food is what the Spaniard and French overlords would eat. Going through the pictures:
>Meat (expensive)
>Cheese (expensive)
>Sugar (expensive)
>Chocolate Mole Sauce (expensive)
These things would ONLY be eaten (in large amounts) at a party or festival. The pleb tier 'authentic' mestizos would eat rice, beans, and whatever was cheapest in that season (peppers, vegetables, fish).

Confirmed to have never visited these countries and only has knowledge of their cuisine through restaurants in his city. If that.

I might agree on Peru, but Mexican food IRL is the best
>>8491971
Because it's very difficult for a cuisine to both have a national identity and have a high level of development without a persistent aristocratic class. The New World was built on the ashes of civilizations whose aristocracies we destroyed, and our best effort at aristocracies are baboons like the Trumps. So our finest offerings are really just regurgitated imports (for instance, the California wines that are made in the French style).

Ok.

And how is that "Americans taking what its good about latin foods and then throw away all the pleb tier parts"? How is Tex-Mex and So-Mex garbage better than any of those dishes?

We can be here forever if you want, but I suggest that you better stick to /r9k/ and /pol/, friend.

I don't get your point.

>>8495717
Same here. IQ of 135? What was all that?

That is what that guy claims to be. Not ITT, but I have seen him before.

Corn was the >staple food, but there are all kinds of foods that came out of the Americas

>chocolate

>all peppers from genus Capsicum

Before the discovery of the New World, food basically didn't exist as we know it, and yes those were all discovered by indigenous populations. Look it up on wikipedia if you don't believe me.

>>8495765
Turkeys were also domesticated in Mesoamerica. And potatoes come from Peru.

When I start "seeing" shit like that I take it as a sign that I need a break from this site

>>8495776
Maybe.

>>8492399
that doesn't sound very authentic to me.

I live in NYC and the authentic places here are great.

Jamaican food and Central American food is good

Also I've been to Ecuador and the food there was really good

>>8494293
What a world it was where fish was "cheap"

>>8494293
putting a retarded white nationalist spin on food, how pathetc

>>8491971
Poor culture. Even though they have lots of ingredients at hand they don't come out with practical recipes for them

>>8496261
well I went to Ecuador and the food was delicious

>>8492184

>indigenous people in a long settled area before colonial conquest didn't know how to use local food resources.

Idiot.
