obviously you aren't a white westerner, otherwise you'll understand the feeling of waking up in the morning and wanting to arbitrarily split a continent.

it's like beavers with dams

True, but OP I think is from New Zealand. If so, makes it even funnier if they posted a map without New Zealand.

That does make it funnier, they even posted it in the community for maps without NZ.

I didn't even realize what the community was lol, this is making more sense.

A because I live there and that's too far to travel elsewhere for breakfast.

Plus, it has pretty much every cuisine on the map.

French, Cajun, Islander (think Jamaican jerk, etc), eastern European (pierogis, etc), varieties of Asian, etc.

And pretty much all available made by people from those places.

I don't understand the rules of the question, because in Canada, we have authentic everything from expats from everywhere so if that counts, I choose A.

If you mean traditional cuisines from the region, I'm going D. Ethiopian cuisine and coffee, various middle eastern, indian, chinese, mongolian, japanese, korean and thai? Yum.

Exactly, although losing Mexican/South American would be soul crushing :(

I wonder what sailors eat these days. Id guess probably just whatever sort of food exists where they come from, but maybe skewed towards things that keep well for awhile?

Delicious Snails bathing in marvelous garlic parsley butter sauce 😋

Call me rusty old fashioned, but I'll do just fine with that triangle that includes Morocco, Northern Italy, Spain (Basque, Catalan, etc), France and Portugal.

A, for sure. You can get pretty much anything, but most importantly it includes New Orleans and Mexico.

The best food I've ever tasted was in C, plus that's where I grew up, so I picked C.

Also, I've eaten in G before. It was pretty good.

C means:

  • all Slavic food north to south
  • just to continue with Balkan stuff
  • France/Belgium ahh, this is sad
  • Italy
  • Greece
  • Some part of Middle-eastern food
    I will miss Chinese and Japanese, but I'll be more than ok

Yep, plus Turkey, big W.

And a little bit of German, at least Bavarian. Which is honestly overlooked but great

Czech republic is there, with a good overlap with German cousine

I'm northern Norwegian, so I'm happy as long as I get to eat fish and sheep that have gone through unspeakable things. Plus I've lived in both Poland and Czechia and they have some pretty nice cuisine there as well.

2

One sector has India, China, Western Asia, the Middle East, a chunk of North Africa, and Russia? A bit unfair, no?

Oh wait. H has potatoes. Shit. That is a tough choice.

C. I'd miss Mexican food but Greek is my favorite and getting Italian food along with seems like a good combo. Unless it isn't just "traditional" foods and you can get everything by just including a country with lots of immigrant groups. (Though, in the latter case, I'd imagine all or most of the slices have at least some people making any given cuisine style given that migration still exists in even not particularly immigrant heavy places.)

2

I'm going with D. Australia has a good variety of cuisines, but I also get to eat foods from the Malaysian Archipelego and part of Africa.

2

I would have to pick A for Cajun/Creole, Mexican & Carribean cuisines. It would suck losing asian cuisine, but I can't live without my Jambalaya & etouffee.

2

I dunno, Indonesian food are very varied. It might test your fortitude though.

E all I need is new Zealand food. We have already taken every other food and fixed it for the new Zealand pallette. Which is to either deep fry it or add more salt.

Wait fuck nz isnt even on the map. They can't keep getting away with this!!
