Tacos are tortillas + the stuff.
Gringas are two tacos + cheese
Huaraches are big tostadas
Tostadas are crunchy tortillas
Empanadas are tortillas with some yeast and they’re rapped around the stuff
Enchiladas and frijoladas are tortillas with beans or some chili sauce poured on top and then the stuff
Tlayudas are big tacos + cheese
Tamales are empanadas but the dough is without yeast and made with rice instead.
I could go on with this reductive simplistic generalisation of several regions of cuisine with the only purpose of ragebaiting performative virtuesignalling one-of-the-good-anglos in order to further underline the point that this weird gastro-nationalism is completely ridiculous, but I reckon none of y'all would ever get it and would only ever make you hallucinate stuff i didnt say that you could then argue against.
New tagline dropped
But seriously we have this thread every few months and it pisses me off every time. I wish you people would interrogate your weird approach to food.
Borsch is literally what I had in mind when I said Euro food is bland but I didn’t want to continue talking about it because I didn’t want to offend; frankly I had pierogi as well and it was the most basic dumpling I’d ever had. Honestly Mexican, Chinese, Indian and (Turkish? Iranian?) food are all very flavorful and tasty in comparison, it’s not even a challenge. Japanese food can lack spices (I’m thinking sushi stuff, not noodles or chicken and curry) and yet it still tastes better.
It’s not performative, it’s not virtue signaling, it’s from a fat person who if given a range of restaurants to choose from, I wouldn’t go Euro again (except maybe ironically Anglo fish and chips or savory pies; the British actually made use of the spices they committed horrors for)
EDIT: Actually you know what? Our own food slaps; you think borsch holds a candle to a bowl of chili? You guys got anything to match up against hotdogs and burgers? These are the foods you can carry with you anywhere and can enjoy anywhere; they are the people’s food and they are delicious.
Imagine being proud you suck so much at cooking that you cant make borscht taste good. A bowl of chili is a dish you can find in every single cuisine, what are you even talking about?
Im sure some day an old asian man will walk up to you and let you know youre one of the good ones.

I’m not the one who cooked it, I bought it from a restaurant that was doing a ‘Slavic’ week; and dude an actual Russian couldn’t make borscht taste good, that’s the problem.
I didn’t want to continue down this discussion because it’s turned bitter, but I can acknowledge there ARE European foods that flavorful, but here we’re looking at British and Italian foods (maybe even Spanish); I love fish and chips, I love meat pies, I love pizza and spaghetti, but borscht though is literally what I had in mind for food that needs flavor. Pierogi also has basically no flavor to it.
Also despite liking several British foods, I’d never be curious to try British ‘jellied eels’.
I think jellied eels are the sort of food you could only imagine eating if you’re in London, completely hammered, and some guy on the street corner was selling them for the equivalent of today’s £.25. How they were historically “enjoyed”.
Me when I got a bad nori roll: Sushi is terrible. I even had it made by an Asian man so I know that’s as good as it gets!
I’m sorry but borsch is a good hearty soup that tastes great if you like beetroot and its funny that it makes your piss look like blood.
It’s served with freshly ground pepper, parsley, sour cream and some toasted bread or croutons. If you don’t like that, then I know you’ve got bad taste.
Jellied eels taste weird, but if we’re going down the road of ragging on people for putting things in gelatine, then the US has no legs to stand on. It’s a leftover from before people had reliable refrigeration and then, because so many people are so weird and nationalistic about food, it has become part of the UK national culture. A signifier of sorts.

Tortilla is when corn dough is used, lol ok
If all british food is beans and toast, then yeah
