Question

What is America famous for in other countries?

Answer 1

well, i live in france and have lived in america for five years and am sorry to say that american food has extremely bad reputation here.... they all think american food = hamburgers mcdonald style which i don't agree with at all! yeah, of course it was a part of it but when i think of american food, i think of barbecues and clam chowder and shrimp cocktails etc... and they also transform food from other countries such as california rolls or guacamole or pancakes and americanize it which i think is great - it proves that they're open... plus, just to tell you, everyone says french food is the best and all but i swear, all you get here are pizza restaurants!

Answer 2

BBQ, pecan pie, cajun food, yellow mustard, coca-cola and most other soft drinks, hamburgers, american pizza is very different especially in areas like chicago, dishes with buffalo in them, the tomatoe came from here etc...

French bread is not called that anywhere but here, Italian soda is simply a form of soft drink, once again, everywhere but here. Canadian Bacon is just bacon or ham elsewhere, spanish rice is just fried rice with spices that are commonly found in spanish cusine. Germany is more famous for beer, kraut and sausage. America has very unique and diverse quisine and just because a food has a name of a different culture doesn't mean that it comes from there.

*Edit:
How could I forget fried food, especially fried steak and fried chicken. Cream, red-eye, chocolat and sausage gravy.

Answer 3

that's between the main problems while German potato salad is going undesirable, till now you recognize it issues might desire to get out of hand. the feared FF2 ( nutrition combat 2 ) might desire to erupt. that's an ominous difficulty, a rapid look on your refrigerator confident me that the Bratwurst is belligerent, and the kraut is extremely sauer certainly desirous to connect the fray. this might have international nutrition repercussions. The Samurai Sukiyaki contained in the a approaches nook seems suspicious, shop a careful eye on that one. some Croissants have escaped the onslaught and are not waiting to crumple yet, luckily. The Russian Borsjtsj might prefer slightly bit stirring up. As of now the beleaguered tarts, via some Scottish Scones have became the breadbasket in an impregnable castle, they're separated from the enemy forces by the water crammed kitchen sink, they're going to hold out for a mutually as. The Norwegian inventory-fish are a write-off now, the Freezer Compartment has been taken over. stable success !!.

Answer 4

Southern fried chicken and biscuits. Hamburgers. French fries.

Iced tea and ice cream cones were invented in the US, but I don't know if other countries define them as "American."

It's really hard, because many of our foods were not actually invented here -- pizza is considered Italian for example. And, many foods that are really really American (corn, tomatoes and potatoes were originally cultivated in South America IIRC) are now considered world foods. The tomato, if anything, is considered Italian, and the potatoes are considered Irish.

(-: Here in Japan, an "American Dog" is a corn dog (a hot dog -- or even a fish sausage! -- dipped in corn meal batter and deep-fat fried). Ick!!!

P.S. Oh, coca-cola is a good answer! Give that man a thumbs-up. But in Japan, French bread is known as furansu-pan, so there goes that theory.

Answer 5

I'd have to say Coca-Cola and apple pie (that someone else mentioned).

Sun tea is also something I didnt know existed until I crossed the border. Canadian "iced tea" is NOT the same as American iced tea...we would call it "cold tea" or "sun tea" here.

Oh...Canadian bacon is NOT bacon from Canada. (Back bacon is known as "Canadian bacon" in the United States, but not in Canada, where it is simply called back bacon, or peameal bacon. In Canada, "Canadian bacon" is traditionally unsmoked back bacon that has been sweet pickle-cured and coated in yellow cornmeal. This variation is also known as peameal bacon because in times past, a mixture of ground yellow peas was used for coating to improve curing and shelf-life. The "Canadian" bacon sold in the United States is plain lean back bacon.)

Answer 6

I'm Malaysian and when it comes to American restaurants, we have San Francisco Steakhouse, Kenny Rogers Roasters, Kentucky Fried Chicken and the most popular of all, McDonalds!! I might have missed a few though...

Answer 7

Sorry,but you don't seem to have a specific cuisine. You have only exported fast fatty bland food to the outside world and this is what we associate you with.

Answer 8

Hamburgers and french fries, yep this is where the julianned potatoe started, and thats how it got its name.

Answer 9

I really hate to say it, but probably McDonalds.

Answer 10
