it’s that class of “immigrant took their native cuisine and retooled it to make drunk locals do that cartoon thing where they smell a visible trail of scent and start floating towards the source, whereupon they hand over their entire wallet in return for delicious food”
Definitely. But the sentiment these days are that the immigrants are natives. So therefore the food that is made is native too, by extending the logic.
There comes a time where the imported variant becomes more popular than the original. Just look at the italians and pasta.
The Americans rightly claim a lot of food that was made similar elsewhere, but garnered popularity in the us. Hamburg-er is a perfect example.
They also “claim” food that might not necessarily be considered American by everyone, like pizza.
Yeah! It’s not like tikka masala exists or is the most popular British dish or anything.
Tikka masala being the best British dish will never be not funny
Isn’t that… Indian?
Nope! Invented by Bangladeshi/brits in England. Its plenty inspired by butter chicken, but made completely differently with British ingredients.
Ahh cool. Kinda how Hawaiian pizza is Canadian
