It's really hard to think of a REAL American food though. Because Hamburger aint it too of course. So much stuff came with them over the Atlantic from Europe or over the Pacific from China and Japan. The only thing I can come up with are Sweets like Muffins or the stuff they eat in the South like Gumbo or smth. Then again, I am from Germany and don't know that much about that.

When food gets Americanized it sometimes overshadows the original and that is what others from other parts of the world come into contact with first.

Too true though. Absolutely love Subaru she is my fav, and her and Ame (my EN fav) bouncing off each other is the sweetest thing my heart has ever enjoyed :D
Italian-American, Pennsylvania-Dutch (-German), Chinese-American, TexMex, Creole, Soul Food, etc.. Food culture develops from locale and heritage. Many American foods are a recreation of cultural food heritage adapted to better fit the locale and/or circumstances. Changes often happen due to ingredient availability, experimentation, or local palette.
Not to mention that most of the Americanized versions of these cuisines diverged from the original country's cuisine quite some time ago, sometimes well over a century and to assume that said origin country's cuisine hasn't also changed in that time from that divergence point is ludicrous. Hell look at much mainstream cuisine has changed in just the last twenty years.
@@silverwolfe3636italian-american cuisine being very much one of those mexican-american cuisine is also such an example tho due to multiple factors (ranging from sharing a border to developing higher spice tolerances) it's been growing less and less americanized lately
America has twisted many foods they've imported, some for better some for worse, but when it comes to fully american dishes, the different barbecues are amazing. Also bacon chocolate is somewhat fitting, since sweet and salty go well together.
Tbf I think any country will borrow and twist other countries' food to some degree. I forget where I hard this but I remember someone in a TH-cam video mentioning how they had a taco in Japan but for some reason the establishment had put mayo in it insteadof sour cream.
@sys32 pineapple has enzymes that do not mix well with dairy products and meats. A caramel glaze on a crispy piece of bacon though? Fantastic. Try it with maple syrup even. Works out well as long as you don't go overboard and drown it.
@@vision4860 Yeah, such are the ways of cultural syncretism. When different cultures interact, they both typically take various things they find interesting about the other culture, and often adapt these things to better fit the tastes of their culture. These days (eg. late 19th century and onward) when practically every culture is constantly in contact with practically every other culture, a lot of really weird and novel amalgams get made.
I think Subaru is like a lot of us people trying to learn a language, easy to understand from someone just can’t speak it that well, ganbatte subaru, soon
I think it might be due to the varying popularity of the chain in different regions. KFC's competing in a really saturated market in the US, with a lot of alternatives either at different price points or with different styles of fried chicken and so on. As sort of a result of this, KFC in the US is marketed as a fairly mid-tier and consistent option for fried chicken, since when it comes to more expensive and higher quality chicken, pretty much everybody in the US has one specific style or even specific chain of fried chicken (which are often regional) that they are cultishly devoted to. KFC is effectively the McDonalds of fried chicken; reasonably affordable, available everywhere, and palatable to everyone, but also almost never anyone's favorite fried chicken place (unless out of nostalgia). In order to be that, they need to make some sacrifices in terms of both quality and in terms of experimentation, where as its overseas brethren in their more secure market position can afford to take risks and chase a higher price point.
the guy who directed that ad campaign did an interview a long time after where he was like "if i had known those ads were going to convince people so thoroughly that it actually was an american tradition, i might have done something else"
I saw this stream coming up and when I saw it, I'm surprised how smooth the conversation is going, like no one is asking what this or that word means every few seconds.
The duality of Ame being nice and "seiso" towards JP Holomems compared to her being unhinged at the EN mates 😂😂😂 Really love Ame x JP members interaction 💯❤️
Yeah not weird both Mel and Shuba are suprised as JP tofu mostly cooked by steaming While China and Taiwan and maybe some part of the world are frying it and even better, made it as the stinky tofu, stinky but delish
Before too long shuba will be americanized xd. Btw bless this off collab, Mel finally can meet Ame after she meet ina last time and Shuba finally met Ame for the first time I guess.
Best way to describe American food: Fried and grilled, in America! -Bandit Keith probably Also, despite most food tastes better from the country of origin...Somehow KFC, Pizza Hut, Wendy's, and McDonalds are all better in Eastern countries. I've seen some of the seasonal menus and it absolutely looks way better than here in America.
Subaru once again being an absolute legend seeing all the EN girls. And AMel off-collab is so good. Tofu is really nice. My local Chinese restaurant does tofu dishes and they are so nice. Can't say I've ever had it fried though Btw technically, as hamburger is a sandwich, and sandwiches were invented in the UK, that isn't an American food either lol
that comes from german, and yes sandwich from england, but that is not the same, and the same with hamburger in japan, majority just eat the patty, you have to know the menu there. you say mcdonald hamburger not just hamburger
Sandwiches are not a UK food. The story of the Earl of Sandwich is about how sandwiches got their English name. Nobody knows when sandwiches were invented, but they were already a traditional food in the middle east by the first century BC and likely date back thousands of years before that. That said, hamburgers *as they are now* are a type of sandwich that definitely is American.
@@Amir_404 I assume you're referring to Hillel the Elder? In which case his creations are a wrap, not a sandwich, and I don't think most people would define a wrap as a sandwich. The sandwich, being fillings within two pieces of bread, was indeed invented in the UK. They were made as food that was easy to eat while gaming. Yes, the sandwich is the original gamer food.
I'm American and when I travelled to China in 2016, the KFC I ate there was WAY BETTER than what I've eaten across multiple US states. really surprised me. the menu was a bit different too
Though it is unlikely that the Hamburger as such is actually an US American invention. It may have gained global recognition from there, but the concept of bread and meatloaf and meatballs have been around in Europe, or at least in Germany, for virtually ever. It is unthinkable that no one ever had the idea to put some cooked meat on bread before it went over the pond.
For those that don't know, KFC is an absolutely *_huuuuuuge_* American fast food chain in Japan. Back in the 1980s/1990s KFC was struggling in the Japanese market so they decided to advertise fried chicken for Christmas... aaaaand it worked. On Christmas you will see absolutely shockingly long lines for KFC fried chicken in some places in Japan. They actually get so busy that they take reservations/pre-orders in advance. So there are a ton of people in Japan that associate Christmas meal = KFC dinner. The same way someone in America would expect a turkey or a Christmas ham for a meal on Christmas.
Subaru is getting very good at speaking and understanding English.
