You know there's different food for different cultures and ethnicities, I've heard a lot of them for different groups but not caucasians. Anyone know? I'm curious.

In my white family, mom typically fried: fish, chicken, pork chops, hamburgers, liver, eggs. She'd bake meatloaf. She used Schilling Spaghetti Sauce mix, add beef then have meat sauce for spaghetti. We also had bacon, crab and tomato on toasted bread. Vegetables were canned (peas,yuk, corn, spinach,yuk, asparagus, yuk, boy was I glad to discover fresh vegetables). Occasional salad was a little iceberg lettuce with tomato.

Caucasians are a race, comprised of many different ethnic groups. So, historically, they eat Italian, Spanish, Portugese, Basque, French, Belgian, English, Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Manx, Breton, Alsatian, German, Polish, Norwegian, Finnish, Russian, Ukranian, Austrain, Swiss, Indian, Romanian, Greek food, among others.

I don't think there is a "Caucasian" food. A persons food taste would be dictated by local ethnicity and custom. In this country there is such a melding of cultures some times it just gets down to what your exposed to and personal taste. I like tacos,pizza,bratwurst,ribs lufsa and any number of other things.

Burgers, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet.
Wait a minute.
Caucasians are comprised of many ethnic groups. Italians, Germans, French, Norwegians, etc. You can't pigeonhole a group like that, caucasians enjoy a wide variety of ethnic foods depending on where they're from and what influenced them.

well that is a tricky question, there are so many different Caucasian cultures especially in Europe. Not to mention there is Canadian(there are other people there too but its still primarily white), there is Australian, Russian, and were my family come's from Kiwi(for those of you who don't know that is people from NewZealand). So i have to say there is no specific kind of food that white people eat.
P.S. you don't have to say Caucasian, no one cares if you are not politically correct.

All people have some traditional ancestor food. My family was German. Grandma made a German breakfast sausage called "Wuscht"> Man I miss it! Lots of Scandanavians were in our area, so pickled herring was a must on the salad bar. My Grandma made the best potatoes, homemade bread and fried chicken on Sundays. We all have charming family food memories from our Grandparents, doesn't matter what ethnicity you are. :)

I don't think caucasians as a whole have a certain type of food. The British are known for fish and chips, Italians for pasta, Americans probably for hamburgers and fries, etc.

It depends on the person's background. I grew up in the south and grew up on collard and mustard greens, pulled pork, string beans, butter beans... My boyfriend's family is part Italian, and he grew up on Italian food. A lot of people in the northeast are of Irish ancestry and eat a lot of potatoes with a meat and veggie. A lot of my Jewish friends' familes are originally from New York, so in addition to the typical bagel thing I remember bageldogs in the freezer of a few friends), they tend to eat more eclectic stuff...New York style. I think spaghetti and marinara sauce is a pretty general thing that most of my white friends grew up on...I don't think it's a racist question. I think food culture is really interesting!

I don't find your question racist at all!
As a product of the Appalachian mountains, I can tell you that we eat lots of home-grown veggies in the summer. Yeah, there are cities nearby where we eat anything from Chinese to Indian, but my white family and I like green beans, fried potatoes, and corn bread.

It would depend a lot on where the white person is from. Different foods typically come from different countries or different parts of certain countries. Such as people in the southern U.S. eat different things than those from the northern U.S. no matter what color they are.
