      Also, D even gets the entire bay of Naples, in addition to the cuisines of 3-4 billion people. Anyone who wants anything from A can get anything from there in Oceania.

      D is so OP, I cannot imagine anyone picking anything else unless they are basing their choice on where they live.

        But then that’s food you can eat in Oceania, not food from Oceania. D has a ton of good Asian food, but for traditional Western cuisine you want A or H.

          This gate keeping of cuisine is ridiculous. It would logically follow that you have to throw out anything that’s made with something originally from a different zone. So no potatoes, tomatoes, corn or other new world crops… Well, anywhere but one of these sections. Anything that comes from cultural exchange is, apparently, right out. So good luck with whatever the fuck they were eating in mesopotamia and the Indus river valley civilisation. I hope you like your beer to be bread.

          If it’s been made by people who identify culturally as being “of that zone”, and they self-identify it as part of their culture, then that’s from there. Pretending that the awful colonisation of the entire world by white Europeans just… didn’t happen is insanely naïve.

            then that’s from there

            I mean, that’s not what the word “from” means, otherwise curry would be American food and that aside from not making sense would make the OP a lot less interesting to consider.

      +1 for D

      It’s literally where the world gets most of their spices … the English fought wars for those places and those spices

        To sell them to the world. Never get high on your own supply.

      Has to be D …. Has the most major cuisines, most variety.

      I may have always lived in H but depending how you define foods from there, we have almost nothing.

    Lots of peeps on the D train, so I’m going G. You’ve got the spiciness of Mexican and Caribbean paired with the savoryness of Guatemalan and Colombian. Jam packed with fish and chicken dishes. Ceviche, jerk chicken, jambalaya, fried plantains, cornbreads, tacos, and giant burritos. Southern Spain means you get paella chock full of shellfish and also Spanish olives. And in the far west you get a bit of Hawaiian flare, so a little bit of Japanese sneaks in.

    Regardless D and G are S tier. E and A are A tier. Everything else is, well, a carb with sauerkraut and sausage.

    D without a doubt. Indian, Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, parts of China. It’s even got some Mediterranean in there. That’s basically all I eat already.

    G.

    Love Mexican and south American food, Creole, Southern, Cuban…plus the US has stolen foods from around the world, so I guess I get to keep pretty much eating whatever.

      the US has stolen foods

      Lots of people in this thread seem to be labouring under the bizarre notion that only the US is allowed to count immigrant cuisine as their own.

        Because most everyone is an immigrant? Where do you draw the line and call something native or not? Otherwise we’re eating nothing but succotash and whatever else the First People had. Is anyone saying you can’t have a hamburger in Thailand?

          Obviously nobody is saying any of those things. The meaning should be obvious when read in context of the original post.

    D has virtually all god-tier food Asia has ever produced, plus a bonus of whatever culinary bullshit Australia vomits onto the world stage.

    D has all the good stuff. Middle Eastern, Asian food, even a part of Greek food. I don’t really see any competition to that.
