What do you consider to be American Food?

If someone was to ask me what food is from the good, old USA, I’d probably have to think for a while before coming up with any decent answers. I’d probably then say burgers, hot dogs, fast food and have to think about it some more!

When  Buzzfeed came up with a list to check off “How Many Of These American Foods Have You Eaten“, I was definitely curious to see what kind of dishes made the list. I was also curious to find out how many I’ve tried.

Here are some foods that Buzzfeed would consider “American”:

  • Grits
  • Bologna Sandwich
  • Biscuits & gravy
  • Chicken & waffles
  • Grilled Cheese
  • Deep-Fried Oreos
  • Twinkies
  • Bacon cheeseburger
  • Hot Dogs
  • Buffalo Wings
  • Mac & cheese
  • many more!

What I noticed was that lots of foods on the list were Southern (or BBQ) as well as plenty of junk/ snacks.

I’d consider myself a Junk Foodie so American food is definitely right up my alley! Let’s see how I did.

  1. 97 for me. I guess living in the South helped that number.

    Notice I did not say I liked all 97, just that I tried them.
