Of course BBQ and fried dough are not uniquely American but there is American specific forms of those foods.

That’s a myth. Clearly Chinese people had noodles but the Italians did not get it from them. The first identifiable Italian pasta was made in Sicily many centuries before Marco Polo and from there moved to Naples. It may have derived from a North African dish.


How do you explain pasta sauce? Tomatoes are from the New World. Clearly, Italians stole pasta from the Chinese and tomatoes from MesoAmerica and faked historical entries to make it seem like Italians invented both hundred of years ago.

The history of breakfast cereals is also bonkers. The inventor was wildly anti-sex and believed bland vegetarian diets restricted sexual urges. Then his brother got control of the company and started adding sugar and salt, which made the cereal more popular and the two ended up in litigation over who could use "Kellogg" on cereal. Super weird stuff.


Sort of. Sanitarium flakes wasn't going to be a catchy name. However, Kellogg inspired a number of different grain-based cereals that didn't require cooking. Fortification of breakfast cereals eliminated rickets in the Western world.
