You doomed me to hell.

Italians eat meatballs with roast potatoes, which makes more sense if you think of it like Italian meatloaf

White breakfast?

Alright, so it says on the back that the packs were manufactured in Thailand with a unique recipe... But instant noodles were invented in Japan, so there's that... But instant noodles were based on ramen, which in turn derive from various Southern Chinese noodle dishes... Uhmmm... So... Uhhh... Y'know... Uhhh... Hmmm...

They have a king and a flag that looks a lot like the Norwegian vimpel, it'll be like I never left the old weathered north.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ramen is based on {拉面|lāmiàn} which is northern Chinese. It's generally Halal owing to the Muslim population of 兰州.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

I thought ramen was named after lamian but not actually derived from it...

Mexico, specifically Oaxaca. Yiss

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Mexico or El Salvador for me I eat most of my meals from the taco truck by my house or the taqueria by my work.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Shit I miss tlayuda and that chocolate drink they make there. Not to mention a good taco where the meat is kept in that big bowl thing they have. Just the tortillas even, I miss them

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

Mexico probably.

India creeping up ever since I learned to make paneer though.

EDIT: wait is restaurant Mexican food in the US mostly Tex-Mex? Does that just mean Texas?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

Mexico, which is cool because I haven’t been there since I was a kid.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

I want to visit some day, love mexican food and love to have some authentic stuff.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not sure if China or Mexico

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Both are nice.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

i'm ripped into atoms as all the foods I eat are made from ingredients sourced around the world

because it makes sense to peel fucking garlic in spain and ship it to america

no i will not peel my own garlic, god that's tedious I eat a lot of garlic people

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Just smash the garlic, like give it a big smack with your knife and that'll peel it and mince it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

Probably Lebanon would be closest

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

uh taco bell so probably SoCal?

ooooooooooooooh

The entire Mediterranean erupt in a horrible war over who invented the concept of grabbing bread around food/putting food in bread. The pita and gyros/döner/dürum/etc.

"It looks like Turkey is winning and- WHOS ENTRANCE MUSIC IS THAT? BAH GAWD THATS MÉXICO RUNNING DOWN THE TOP RAMP AND- OH MY GAWWWWD THE FIRST NATIONS JUST HIT THEM WITH A STEEL CHAIR".

The real answer is probably that I would be teleported to Italy though, I eat a lot of pasta and risotto. I guess I'd book a room in a hostel, chill for a few days and then see if I can buy an interrail pass outside of my own country. Could be I go to Japan though, I slurp down ramen and sushi. In that case I'm fucked.

I guess I'm staying where I am

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

slightly further south, if at all.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Japan, oddly enough.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Before I became vegan it would probably have been Mexican, now it'd be Asian/Indian. I'm cool with either. Do I get a free bilingual upgrade along with it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Korea or China with some vacations in the Mediterranean

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

luckily this won't be a big change for me. i live in spain and probably eat spanish food most often.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

This is a great question but difficult because I rotate so much that it's honestly hard to know what I eat more of in particular. Probably either Thailand or China though. Both good choices.

Would prefer Thailand for the weather and people, would prefer China for the politics and economy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

the wheat for that pizza was probably grown in the US so you're going to the US

specifically like nebraska or something

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Italy, most likely; second and third are likely the Balkans and orientalism in food-form.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I would be poofed out of existence ftom my couch, and back into existence on my couch. Most of my food is just random smatterings of what I want/have/ have to eat to fit my macros.

Example: chicken breast, bowl of mixed vegetables, grapes, and ice cream.

I have been whisked away to Japan. I love making sushi bowls for lunch at work so I suppose that counts as "japanese".

Definitely an improvement (not that I'm biased as a weeb), but still going to have to deal with a good ton of capitalist BS.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I'm going to teleport from central China to 东北 China. Which would save me on a HSR trip, I guess...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Would not get teleported, I mostly eat very basic local homecooked food.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Italy or Morocco right now I guess. End up eating mostly pasta and various kinds of couscous based salads in summer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Mexico, Greece, or India there are too many good taquirias in my area and I cook a ton of Greek, Indian, and Mexican food at home.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Chinese. But I'm already in China so I guess whatever.

I grew up in an Italian household so like 90% of the recipes I know by heart are Italian, so Italy for me.

Runner up would be Vietnam, cause there was a pho place near the long term care home I used to work at and I'd eat there almost every day for an entire year.
