On a scale of 1-10, how much do people directly touch food with

>>69227192
We only touch fast food that is supposed to be eaten with bare hands for hot meals. So I would say it's a 3.

>>69227192
Post traditional American food that is not fastfood please.

In all honesty though some native americans at least in the southwest probably traditionally ate alot of similar stuff found in traditional mexican food, though when you google it all you find is fry bread and pemmican

It's a type of southern food, and the best type imo.

Here's something less Cajun.

>>69227192
3 probably. Old southerners eat fish with their fingers sometimes so maybe 4.

3-4

>>69229384
That looks like dog shit

>>69229502
It's called sausage. It's just cooked ground pork.

>>69229502
tastes like it too

>>69229384

Cajun food is super distinct from Dixie fare desu.

>>69229007
What is Cajun?

>>69229781
Some weird culture in Louisiane of which we apparently are the source.

>>69229885
Americans who pretend to be French?

>>69229781

Original french settlers from around the great lakes area that got deported after the british got control of the land and ended up in louisiana.

They tend to have alot of variations of seafood stews and use alot of celery, onion and bell pepper in their food. Also completely different spices.

>>69229923
No those ones are supposed to be legit

>>69229951
>>69229943
Interesting never heard that the French prevailed themselves. Do they still speak French?

>>69229943

I just wikipedia'd it and they weren't from the greak lakes so much as just eastern canada in general.

>American education

>>69229696
I guess category would've been a better word to use. It is very distinct, but it would still be categorized as Southern AFAIK.

I probably shouldn't have used the word Southern though.

Descendents of the French-speaking colonists who settled Louisiana. They speak a really weird creole of French and English (generally just called Cajun Creole). They're (at least in terms of stereotypes) friendly and easygoing, but also lazy and uneducated, and they have really hilarious accents.

They have really good cuisine. They make thorough use of the animals found in the swamps of Louisiana (frog, catfish, alligator, etc.), the "Cajun Trinity" (onions, bell-peppers, and celery), and peppers, especially cayenne peppers. It's known to be really spicy though, likewise.

>Do they still speak French?

Same way the quebecois do i guess. Rural cajuns are bilingual and have goofy accents.

*Louisiana Creole

>>69230135
No, Québécois is still really close to French and could be understandable to most people without training. Cajun Créole is a fucking mess to me.

>>69230072
>>69230135
That's actually a pretty cool thing about the US I didn't know until now.

Fuck those Cajun niggers

>>69230183

I don't speak much french so I trust you on the subject Pierre, but just listening to the way they talk Cajun and Quebecois sound way more similiar to eachother than French proper.

>>69230430
lol no

>>69230224
Don't forget that we have Texasdeutch

>Food thread turned into a language thread

My two favorite things to be honest

>>69227192
1. We have all sorts of napkins, one for each kind of food.

>>69227192
We have access to both "soap" and "water" in our country.
