Line 21:
*** Don't forget bars. Of all kinds. Peanut butter, lemon, chocolate chip, anything like that.
*** Super-flat St. Louis-style pizza is some sort of national joke, even though most major pizza chains now carry similar thin-crust pizza.
** New Orleans: [[Did Not Do the Research|New Orleans food will be called "Cajun,"]] and automatically assumed to be [[Fire-Breathing Diner|super-spicy.]] [[You Fail Geography Forever|Actual Cajun cuisine is from Acadiana]], west of New Orleans, and isn't usually very spicy straight out of the pot; you'll need to add the [[Trademark Favourite Food|requisite dose of Tabasco]] for that. New Orleans cuisine is properly called "Creole." And for the record: Blackened ≠ Burnt. Write it down if you need to.
** [[The Other Rainforest|Pacific Northwest]] - Asian fusion, massive amounts of fish, and gallons of coffee. (This applies to the [[Stargate City|Canadan portion]] of the region as well.)
*** [[Truth in Television]]: fits the bigger city areas pretty well; apples, pears, cherries, organic beef and exotic meat animals may be used for Pacific Northwest settings that aren't in the coastal cities.
Line 42:
** Welsh: Lamb, and of course Welsh rarebit (more authentically Welsh rabbit, [[Take That|which is a joke]] and makes more sense) A thick sauce of cheese, beer and mustard, spread on toast and browned under the grill. Lesser known are "laver" (a type of seaweed, often used to make "laver bread") and cawl (a type of meat and vegetable stew, also used as the modern Welsh word for "soup").
* Canadian: Back bacon, maple syrup, maple-y back bacon, basically anything else with maple syrup in, beer, and poutine.
** Some [[Truth in Television]], as
** Poutine is depicted as a national cuisine although it's actually a very regional dish specific to Québec. The poutine available elsewhere in the country is a fast-food variant made with processed cheese and instant gravy.
*** That isn't to say that it isn't delicious.
** And according to [["Weird Al" Yankovic|"Weird Al"]], they all live on donuts and moose meat. (In reality: Donuts, yes; the local coffee shop is probably a donut shop that has coffee. Moose, not so much.)
* Chinese: Lots of [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick|noodles, rice, vegetables and monosodium glutamate]], with some meat thrown in every now and then. (No, it is not dog.) They eat it with those funny-looking chopsticks that few Westerners can figure out.
** Egg rolls! And "fortune cookies" in restaurants (which aren't Chinese).
