Food guide;

British food is tasteless
French food is pretentious
italian food takes all afternoon
American food is poisonous
Indian food is special because it uses something called “spice” and no one else does apparently
asians eat rice
anyone east of Berlin eats either turnips or caviar

What did I miss ?

American food is poisonous

American food is grease and sugar. Pure grease and sugar. Sometimes combined. God, I want a funnel cake right now.

Dammit, I just realized I haven't had a funnel cake in literal years. How sad.

I've never had a funnel cake before. I almost had one over the weekend at the fair, but I decided to try an elephant ear for the first time ever. It was okay. A bit too much sugar for me.

Oh, my poor child. I'd mail you one if I could.

Alton covers it in Good Eats "Popover Sometime". Popovers use a similar batter.

Stupid easy to make. My mother wasn't much of a cook (bless her heart), and still taught us to make them as kids.

I'll get one next year at the fair. Then I can experience this wonder you speak of.
