What is the most American food?

This just in!

Today it has bee officaly declared that apple pie is the most American food!​

I'm glad we can all get this out of the way now.

 

oh yeah, they're freaking disgusting...but they're so incredible at the same time!

you have them back home?? wow....

you can't even get them everywhere in the states! thats cool though:cheers2:

 

Yeah, they make them in quite a few places. At least in Santo Domingo and other big cities, Im sure in smaller places they dont have it.

My brother is a big fan of them, but I've never been a fan of beef, even when I ate meat.

 

apple pie is certainly an iconic foodstuff in terms of american culture, but apple pie has existed in one form or another for a couple hundred years before the US did.

i insist that for a food to be the MOST american food, it needs to not only be popular in america, but must be american in origin

 

I agree.

 

....and therefore I'm right.

 

I have an answer to all of this...

if you text questions to 242242 they'll find the answer.

The reply was also apple pie.

 

american food is pretty much anything you can get from a drive-though for a buck.

 

In a land as diverse as America how can one come up with "typical" cuisine... Typical in America is varied...from Indian to Greek to Italian to .... anything really. Just a wide mix of foods from all sorts of cultures, since America is a melting pot nation.

 

Says the 17 year old who probably only eats drive through food for a buck.

 

i don't like fast food

nice try though

 

So why the statement above?

 

because thats how i view american food.

although, i don't like american food. i perfer polish and german food, myself.

 

doesn't really matter since it's Apple Pie anyway...

 

Than you must not get around much..

Oh well, you are only 17, you'll experience great cuisine in this country.

 

...says you...

 

Only because it is.

 

i guess you're right. i really only spend my days in the philadelphia pa/carlisle pa/chambersburg pa/hagerstown md/matinsburg wv area.

 

geese travel too, but it doesn't mean they are very intelligent.

 

geese are probably smarter than me lol.

and its not really travelling.. its like all the towns on the way to martinsburg from philly.
