What do you like best??

I love it all pretty much--just as long as it is vegan. I love Italian pasta, lots of Mexican dishes, Chinese stir-fried veggies, veggie Japanese sushi, lots of Middle Eastern dishes, etc. I especially love Indian food--love the spice!

I like Mexican food and Italian food because they've been Americanized enough over the years. I don't bother with most of the others because I know it's butchered (figuratively speaking) in America and tastes nothing like what it tastes like in the original country. Or, if I do eat them, I don't think of them as from that country because they aren't.

... Who am I kidding? I hardly eat anything on that list.

I love English food. Fish n chips, bubble and squeak, shephard's pie, roast beef with Yorkshire pudding, real orange Cheddar cheese on crackers and bangers & mash. :D

Huh? That is why I put an other category--I put down what I thought was the most popular and then stuch other. I can't really add 200 categories. I was kind of lumping British under Western, but yes, I know there are differences. :)

Japanese food. Sashimi with ginger, a little bit of wasabi and brown rice is so good.
