D looks like I’d get Japanese, Indian, and Vietnamese food. Everything else in there is a bonus.
Dinner is ready!

D section.
All the most interesting flavours come from D section.
There also lies the birthplace of spices. Wars were fought over those pices. The earliest forms of global trade was formed over those spices. Europeans started colonialism largely driven by the need for regular access to those spices.
Do not underestimate the power and value of spices. No other section, as presented here, compares.

It’s a hard choice between D and G for me. G gets all of the southern US cuisine that Europeans are always blown away by, along with texmex, traditional Mexican, street tacos, Louisiana seafood, Cali and Florida seafood, etc… But D gets India, the Mediterranean (maybe even Italy? I can’t quite tell on this map), Korean, Japanese, south china, etc…
If I wanted to commit to consistently good food, I’d go with G. But if I wanted a wider variety with a broader spice palette, I’d go with D.

G has mexican, cajun, and tex mex. D has filipino. In set for life :)
ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 3 months ago
The one loss from G is Detroit Style pizza, but Tacos, Texas BBQ, and Southern biscuits and gravy make up for it
0xDREADBEEF@programming.dev 3 months ago
I dont like pizza that much as a staple in my diet (too unhealthy imo) so thats not too bad, but as a cali-born, kentucky-raised filipino, yes.
Spesknight@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Why is this centered of Italy?
Dearth@lemmy.world 3 months ago
G. Sufficiently diverse populations and no hoity toity rules about what is authentic cuisine. Plus these regions contain every biome to grow every sort OG fruit vegetable and herb i could ever want to eat.
Jumbie@lemmy.zip 3 months ago
G is the best answer. You’ll end up eating every single cuisine from the other categories (or a variant of it).
skisnow@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
That’s only true if you apply a definition of “from” to the US that you’re not allowing any other country to have.
Jumbie@lemmy.zip 3 months ago
I was more focused on the Caribbean but I see your point.
zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
All y’all sleeping on global South cuisine. F and E would get you an absolutely smorgasbord of culinary bangers that you’ve probably never heard of. Plus with the amount of colonization that’s happened in those areas, you’d get a lot of European-ish food too, if you wanted something more familiar. It’s a tough choice between the two, but I’d take either of those in a heartbeat.
joan@lemmy.world 3 months ago
For anyone who loves spicy food, I recommend finding an authentic Ethiopian place near you if possible!! I had never even considered that cuisine before, and i was pretty confused what to get, but a couple bites in I was in love!! my favorites are siga wot, and tibs is awesome!!!
Drusas@fedia.io 3 months ago
Doro wat, especially, is amazing.
dreadbeef@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 months ago
not sleeping, its just G and D the depth and variety is unmatched. The map projection and geometry choice causes it to be unbalanced geographically per section, so not their fault, and eurocentrism of maps ofc
zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
F and E both contain like 30 countries, with insane geographical and cultural variety, which would lead to a huge amount of culinary variety. Just as much variety as in G or D, it’s just no one knows about or appreciates food in the global south.

A purely for the pains au chocolat
tino@lemmy.world 3 months ago
best answer. With H, you’d get a chocolatine.
visnae@lemmy.world 3 months ago
A for rotten shark, snails, frogs and the blandest food possible e.g. toast with mayo

Its funny that Italy is in 3 zones, increasing the quality of food of all three

F for all my Brazilian food and churrasco needs
eager_eagle@lemmy.world 3 months ago
yeah, it’s hard to beat BR food for me, most of the world don’t know what they’re missing out
NoPanko@feddit.uk 3 months ago
D no question, Indian food makes up a huge portion of my diet
Philote@lemmy.ml 3 months ago
D for sure, Greek, Turkish, Persian, Lebanese, Indian, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Cambodian, Philippine, New Zealand, and Australian (which is essentially French/British). And more.
tuckerm@feddit.online 3 months ago
Korea is doing a lot to keep C viable.
F is a secret top tier with Morocco and Argentina.
NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 3 months ago
Korea is doing a lot to keep C viable.
I mean, even if you don't include China and Japan C also gets to call dibs over places like the Balkans and Caucasus (notably including Armenia), and on top of that it gets Italy.
mlg@lemmy.world 3 months ago
D by far has the widest available palette, it includes the silk road which is the thing that fueled C, B, and E.
WanderWisley@lemmy.world 3 months ago
G, BBQ and Mexican.
nagaram@startrek.website 3 months ago
G easily.
Southern comfort food, Mexican, Carribean, and Sushi Rolls. RIP Pizza but I didn’t need it
Pacattack57@lemmy.world 3 months ago
A better question is which one of these is the worst. If I had to pick, B and C are not the best but even those aren’t too bad. A looks like it isn’t much but it is arguably the best. French and UK cuisine.
franklinovitch@lemmy.world 3 months ago
UK cuisine?? There is no such thing.
Pacattack57@lemmy.world 3 months ago
You don’t like beans on toast? I’m kidding but I’m has plenty of good food. Full English, fish and chips, shepherds pie, toad in the hole, bangers and mash just to name a few.
ThunderQueen@lemmy.world 3 months ago

Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I love French food. It may be the best in the world. Is it enough to offset the food crimes in the rest of the sector? You be the judge.

ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 3 months ago
Wurst, kiełbasa, pierogi, bagels, vepřo-knedlo-zelo, svíčková, chlebíčky and of course it’s the only region to combine wine, beer and vodka.

Don't forget about banana curry pizza

H, just put the poutine directly into my arteries.
T00l_shed@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Yeah, I’m with you. It was hard to choose, but then I remembered poutine, also smoked meat
NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 3 months ago
You mean I have to choose between Hokkaido or the rest of Japan? Rough :(
hotdogcharmer@lemmy.world 3 months ago
A. I’d sooner pop my clogs than not have my rice pudding, black pudding, beans on toast, Eton mess, spotted dick, coronation chicken, and vindaloo.
g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Those are foods? Absolutely deranged

D but prob biased because I’m from Iran
adminofoz@lemmy.cafe 3 months ago
At this point I think the city of Shiraz should make me an ambassador because of how hard I push Sharazi salad.
Every potluck im out there hustling Shirazi.
Even when its a bunch of racist old white folks. I let them try my “cucumber tomato” salad. Of course when they love it, I rug pull them and hit em with the “its Iranian!”
Tattorack@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Can’t go without Ghormeh Sabzi.
artiman@piefed.social 3 months ago
I like it, but I have eaten it so many times just this past 3 months that I’m tired I pretty much love all of it listed on Wikipedia My favorites are the kebabs here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Iranian_foods I recently ate tongue but If you’re a vegan there’s a lot of food on the list that’s vegan I like kuku and dolme most as a vegan option we also have a variant of the pizza that is much more tasty than your traditional pizza
flop_leash_973@lemmy.world 3 months ago
G or D for me.
Jhuskindle@lemmy.world 3 months ago
G. Mexican and texmex. I hate Texas but holy shit Tex mex is like heaven.

Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
Anyone who chooses A or H is a psychopath
tuckerm@feddit.online 3 months ago
H has poutine and lobster, A has France and Ireland. There are some top tiers in each of these divisions.
frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 months ago
H has three of the top pizza traditions.
