    Industrial use of high fructose corn sirup is all American Capitalism, though.

    … And southern france hardly uses butter btw.

    sugar itself originated in India

    Lol, what? Also: it’s not about where the stuff came from but rather what the cuisine does with it. Italian or German cuisine doesn’t become south american all of a sudden cause of tomatoes and potatoes.

      Just curious, but what does Southern France use as their fat to cook with, then? I’m visiting in a month.

      I don’t think it’s fair to claim either region has poor taste in food beyond as a joke, but if you dismiss the fact that American food has a lot of corn syrup because that’s a result of American capitalism, you should also dismiss the claim that Brits don’t use a lot of spices because that was a result of the war

      Look I feel sorry for the Italians and the Germans but their food is American now. It’s just the way the world works. :)-
