I'd bet dollars to donuts this writer never ate in Texas! Whataburger hamburgers would have changed her mind.

American food is the best in the world! Here's why:

Only in America can you get:

Great American Food
Great Italian food
Great Mexican Food
Great Chinese Food

Great Greek Food
Great middle easert food
Great French food - just not much
Great Thai cooking

There are benefits to being a nation of immigrants. Great German food

The writer is an idiot!

'Nuff said!

BTW, moron... You might notice that many people share their deserts at the Cheesecake Factory!

If you don't like it then be civilized and do NOT eat it.

There's lots of food I don't like but I don't make a big deal about and behave like a toddler and voice it bluntly.

Geesh, adults are as childish as toddlers!

Ella Windsor take note: Not every American eats junk food. Much of our food is better in fact and I'm speaking from experience. This article is complete crap. My BF is a Brit. You want to talk JUNK FOOD? COMERFORT FOOD? England likes theirs just as much as we like ours and their selection is just as large.

The irony of a BRIT slamming US food is obviously lost on Ella....

A friend of mine is engaged to an Irish woman. She came to America for the first time last week and was astounded at the food people brought for a covered dish supper at church. She ate plenty, too.

Our food platter is more diverse than yours, Brit. And you didn't even mention the Philly cheese steak.

[Fruitbat]

British cuisine ...

Aren't those two words oxymoronic?

Is "oxymoronic" even a word?

Poor Ella doesn't know what to do because America has TOO MUCH FOOD.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

The Cheesecake Factory is one of the most popular family food chains in the US

Wow, what a truly stupid statement. There are 96 locations in the U.S. There are 23 entire States without a single one. That is one restuarant for every 3 million Americans.

Her Statement would be as ridiculous as claiming a Restuarant chain with 20 shops was one of the most popular restuarants in all of the UK. Nonsense.

If she believe that The Cheesecake Factory is a favorite of Americans, it says more about the taste of her friends than the taste of this country.

With the exception of some Scottish upland game, fowl and salmon dishes, I would eat a Louisiana skunk's ass before I'd eat anything prepared in the british isles.

This woman is just pandering to the European stereotype that every American restaurant is McDonald's. We may have lots of crappy restaurants, but there are lots of good restaurants as well. I enjoy having freedom of choice.

And if the portions are too big to eat all at once, I even have the freedom to box the leftovers up and eat them at home a day or two later. What a radical concept, huh?

English cuisine: use your yellow teeth to eat bangers, spotted dick, and steak-and-kidney pie.

'Nuff said.

[chilepepper]

i'll take a Spam and Velveeta sandwich on wonderbread slathered with hellman's sandwich spread, accompanied by fritos and kraft nacho cheeze spread in the aerosol can any day over a bangers, neeps and mash.

washed down by a diet mountain dew, i'll be in heaven, particularly after topping off the meal with a moon pie...or two. maybe i'll have some sour cream flavored pringles too...

Half the problem, I think, is that food isn’t just food in the States — it’s an obsession.

That's because it's so good. I can see why Brits would not be obsessed with food; everything the British eat has been boiled to unrecognizability. The term "British cuisine" is an oxymoron.

[uncitizen]

A Brit saying American food is bad.

Now ain't that the pot calling the kettle black.

[Little Ray]

Sorry, I've eaten in both countries and, foodwise, the USA has it all over the Brits.
I love the Cheesecake Factory. Don't like the serving portions? Ask for half size portion, which they serve at half the cost. As for the cheesecake, it ain't that big, but my wife and split it when we can agree, and take some home when we can't.

[latina4dubya]

what exactly IS American food?

[muleskinner]

Well, when Burger King introduces the "Meatnormus" breakfast sandwich, sometimes you gotta' wonder...
