QOTD: duh, hungary or turkey

question of the day: which countries have the best/worst food?

I've only been to a few countries but from all of my travelling I have to stick with America as having the best food. In America, especially New York City, you get the best food from around the world.

Although everyone typically knocks British food, I love it. Fish and chips, bangers and mash, I love it all. I especially love the English breakfast of eggs, grilled tomatoes, mushrooms and beans. I also love Polish food like kielbasa and pierogis because I grew up eating it all the time. I love food; I don’t think I’ve ever really had anything that I didn’t like. Caribbean, British, Mexican-it’s all good to me.

worst food- the Netherlands. best food- Spain, italy

America has the best food by far, not only in terms of taste and variety, but in terms of cleanliness as well. The rest of the countries can not even compare.

Going to the Olive Garden is like visiting Italy, right?

Countries with the best food:
1. India
2. Italy
3. Thailand
4. Singapore
5. America
…Never been to Korea, Spain, Greece, Turkey, or Morocco but I’m going to guess the food is great…perhaps even over take some on my current list.
Countries with the worst food:
1. England
Countries with cold climates - no appreciation for spice and variety are probably on my shit list. I’m going to guess Russian food is pretty crappy as well (by that criteria).

best: Spain--pallella, tortilla espanola, tapas--how can you go wrong? Worst: Czech Republic--while goulash is delish, after a few weeks you start wondering why there are no vegetables in the country (they win for best beer though)

italy has by far the best food, but coming in a close second are eastern/southeastern asia (chinese, japanese, thai, vietnamese). the worst, which is thus far the only food i've ever tried and just can't eat cause i thought i was going to get sick was indian

best: mexico, worst: uk

I haven't been to many different countries, so I'll say the US has the best, esp. Texas for its close proximity to giant authentic burritos. The worst to my tastebuds' knowledge was Iceland. Things were slimy, there were weird sauces, and the beacon was raw. ugh.

best italy, worst ireland

germany and amsterdam have the best food.

Mexico? Oh, I don’t think so. Any country that uses only a handful of ingredients [corn, tequila, cheese, beans, hot sauce and (insert random meat here)] can’t be a contender. No variety. Besides, you can’t even drink their water without getting Montezuma's Revenge.
England? I don’t even want to hear, “but they have great Indian food there.” That’s not even their own cuisine. What do the Brit’s have to offer? Fish & Chips wrapped in a dirty newspaper. Yuck. Probably a crowd favorite for worst.
France (of course we surrender)? Rumor has it that they have it hands down. Although their whole cookbook is based on making something “tasty” out of something not normally thought of as food. The jury (me) has not decided on the French. They seem to have a knack for cooking things that people want to pay a lot of money to eat.
Korea? Dogs & cats, as in they eat them. Enough said.
Countries of Africa? Its a desert. Nothing grows there. The cows are hungry for God’s sake.
USA? I would honestly lean to our homeland, but “American Cuisine” is more of a hodge podge of everything else. We may have a great variety of interesting and delectable dishes, I don’t think of any of them being all that unique. You don’t see other countries doing their interpretations of American Cuisine.
India? Even if you don’t order something with curry (which can be good), you leave reeking of it. And where’s the pasta? Gotta have pasta.
Japan? OK, you may not have gotten beyond the whole “raw” thing, but you have to admit, their presentation is spectacular. If you have any sense for design, you probably hold Japan close to your heart.
Italy? De-Licious.
