1. I'm from the same country as @ itsme_goodsamaritan :-D
2. This country today has 29 states under a parliamentary system (typically the Brit one) and 7 Union Territories
3. Further there are about 122 recognized languages but the suspected dialects here including those in deep forest and tribal territories are suspected to be around over 800
4. This country is also the birthplace of various religions like Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism & Buddhism apart from being an eternally secular country and hence hosts and recognizes almost every other religion. There are Zoroastrians (less than 1%), Islam (appx 17/20%), Christianity (appx 4/5%) etc
5. This country was populated over 70000 years ago and since then has not only evolved but also been conquered, expanded etc multiple times and today stands with 2nd largest population in the world. Hence, it has many more cuisines than most places - many of which civilization may not even know lol
6. Let's try to list out some here apart from the cuisine mentioned by @ itsme_goodsamaritan which is primarily South Indian
6.1. www.storypick.com/28-must-dishes-28-indian-states/ (this one about sums up all states but there is much more than these)
6.2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_dishes
6.3. www.indiacurry.com/.../popularindianstatefoods.htm

lol the list is endless - almost ;-) I liked this question :-D

Hamburgers and hot dogs, but in the US, different areas have other local traditions. Where I live would be jambalaya, seafood, gumbo, creole, etouffe, etc.

Applefan1 · Answer

Well I am a New Zealander living in New Zealand.

Traditional foods in New Zealand are:

Seafood: We are surrounded by water and have endless seafood options. Many dishes contain seafood.

New Zealanders are keen farmers. The country has a strong farming industry. We have world class lamb and also provide one third of the worlds dairy products. Lamb is normally roasted served with gravy and roasted potatoes and veggies. This is normally served with a nice wine (New Zealand is also makes high quality wines).

Hangi. This is a traditional Maori way of cook. Maori people are also New Zealanders. We have two cultures here the European culture and the Maori culture. A Hangi is when food is cooked in the ground using heated rocks. Food that is cooked is usually meat, potatoes and veggies I think it is.

Hokey Pokey ice cream, Pavlova and Trifle are all common New Zealand desserts.

Fish and Chips are also extremely popular here.

New Zealanders also love their fancy cheeses and crackers combined with a high quality wine.

This lists some of the popular foods in New Zealand. All of these foods are so nice.

Have a nice day :)

Two things wrong with what she's doing.

1. She's using two hands (I would get slapped for that)
2. She's eating the whole plate on her own lol. It's meant for multiple people.

johnny_hustle · Answer

I live in the United States and there really is no traditional food for the country outside of turkey during Thanksgiving.

I don't even know what the traditional food for my region would be...

For my family, however, I would say gumbo, jambalaya, turkey, ham, stuffing (some places call it filling) corn, venison (deer), and some sort of burrito. I'm not sure what it's called at the moment, but it has beef, sour cream, chicken, rice, a few peppers (habanero, jalapeno), with hot sauce poured over the outside covering the entire burrito. I think I'm missing a few things, but it's really good and someone in our family always makes it when we come together as a family (aunts, uncles, cousins)

Are you from Russia?

I live in the United States so I guess hamburgers or something. Its a country of other ethnicities so I don't have a clue. Probably McDonald's since everyone eats there 6 times a day.

AleDeEurope · Answer

In Spain we have many, but I'm going with the best ones for me:
Paella, Chorizos, and the best of all... Jamon Iberico, oh God, it's delicious, one of the best things you could ever try. With my family, it's the only thing I miss from Spain.
If you're lucky enough to find some in the US, don't hesitate and buy it... even though it's kind of expensive, but TOTALLY worth it.
