      obviously you aren’t a white westerner, otherwise you’ll understand the feeling of waking up in the morning and wanting to arbitrarily split a continent.

      it’s like beavers with dams

      True, but in this scheme Africa has the absolute best localized selection of any other region on the map

          True, but OP I think is from New Zealand. If so, makes it even funnier if they posted a map without New Zealand.

      Plus, it has pretty much every cuisine on the map.

      French, Cajun, Islander (think Jamaican jerk, etc), eastern European (pierogis, etc), varieties of Asian, etc.

      And pretty much all available made by people from those places.

    I don’t understand the rules of the question, because in Canada, we have authentic everything from expats from everywhere so if that counts, I choose A.

    If you mean traditional cuisines from the region, I’m going D. Ethiopian cuisine and coffee, various middle eastern, indian, chinese, mongolian, japanese, korean and thai? Yum.

      I wonder what sailors eat these days. Id guess probably just whatever sort of food exists where they come from, but maybe skewed towards things that keep well for awhile?

    The best food I’ve ever tasted was in C, plus that’s where I grew up, so I picked C.

    Also, I’ve eaten in G before. It was pretty good.

      C means:

      • all Slavic food north to south
      • just to continue with Balkan stuff
      • France/Belgium ahh, this is sad
      • Italy
      • Greece
      • Some part of Middle-eastern food
        I will miss Chinese and Japanese, but I’ll be more than ok

        I’m northern Norwegian, so I’m happy as long as I get to eat fish and sheep that have gone through unspeakable things. Plus I’ve lived in both Poland and Czechia and they have some pretty nice cuisine there as well.

    C. I’d miss Mexican food but Greek is my favorite and getting Italian food along with seems like a good combo. Unless it isn’t just “traditional” foods and you can get everything by just including a country with lots of immigrant groups. (Though, in the latter case, I’d imagine all or most of the slices have at least some people making any given cuisine style given that migration still exists in even not particularly immigrant heavy places.)
