Ouch, ouch all around.

I'll go with the unstylish thing, but is our cuisine really worse that of the british?

If we are so unstylish why does everybody copy us?

Nobody's cuisine is worse than the British. Hands down the most boring, tasteless food on the blue marble.

But then Cajun food is my bag.

Basically no, because I think you and them eat basically the same things. I have here a list of "traditional" American food that I posted on anotehr thread. You share 99% of them with "the mother country":

1. Fish chowder - not particularly foreign, isn't it?

2. Corned beef boiled dinner - hey that's British!

3. Boston baked beans - what's the difference with the baked beans back home?

4. Baked ham - how you start to wonder if you are at home?

5. Fried chicken - now that's something not very traditionally British/English. But the Scots do fry wahtever their food.

6. Breakfast of fried eggs, bacons, toasts - you sure it is American?

7. pork roast - now tell me whether it is American or British

8. Mom's apple pie - are we back home?

9. roast beef - it is equally American.

10. seafood cocktail - you sure it is American?

No one, but no one's cuisine is worse than that of the British.
Not on this planet anyway.

I am no fan of Jacques Chirac, but one thing he was right on the money about, was when he said the British have have terrible food.
They really do.
UGH!
