Description: Since the dawn of the internet, white people food has been the favorite laughing stock of most people online with memes & cursed food images galore. However, there is much more to this cuisine other failed cooking attempts and WASP-y dinners.

People who shit on potatoes have never eaten a good potato in their lives

I just realised that 90% of the worlds food variety just comes from the fact that there was no fridge back then. :|

Give a hungarian unlimited supply to spices he won't touch it. But give a hungarian an unlimited supply of paprika and sour cream for a day and you'll go bankrupt

Especially with northern European food I think it's often just not something you can casually try.
They either serve you a warmed up ready made meal or it's going to be real expensive.

Also these "race memes" are pretty much USA exclusive as there's no such "white" identity in Europe. In general USA seems to be obsessed about race and skin colour.

I think what bothers me more about the whole white/poc food debate in the US is the smugness. They'll trash European food all day without considering *any* cultural or historical subtext of the people that made the food what it is. And obviously it's fine to have preferences but I've seen so many videos of youtubers trying things and their critique of "white" people food is always verging on the side of spiteful for no reason other than their stupid culture/race war.

The past few years there's been a rise in defending Chinese American cuisine (like panda express) and people will state how this type of food was made by male workers who were alone, didn't have the knowledge of how to cook elaborately like their wives/mothers, didn't have access to ingredients and needed something fast and preferably able to be carried to work. And that's great. we should be acknowledging the past and "honouring" it (sorry, don't remember the specific word needed here). And this goes on with most cultures, which is great to see.

However, the people that are now defending immigrant food don't extend the same courtesy to ANY European cuisine bc it's white, and... ok? Sorry that we have different ways of cooking? Sorry that we're not from a place that could geographically produce the spices *you* want to eat for you to.. idk, respect us? Like us? Idk why any European would care about being liked by any Northern American but anyway-
Being proud of your cuisine is one thing, we're all competitive in Europe and everywhere in the world with everything, especially our food. But like, being so smug about who seasons their food the most is such a weird thing to be so passionate about? And the stupidest hill to die on? Literally no one is forcing you to eat it, why are we even having this discussion, pls get a hobby.

Also, the "white" thing is so recent in a historical context since only the Anglosaxons were considered white till less than a 100 years ago. You had Italians, Greeks, IRISH, Central and Eastern Europeans who were considered less than dogs, much less "white" so this whole thing becomes even funnier when you sit on it for more than a second.

when people say "white people food" it's almost always in the context of the US, that's where all the racial tension is with each one trying to up the other. everyone knows the german, italian, spanish, french cuisines and their wide variety of food

[sigurdjensen]

Who'd be hating on "white people food"?
Hello? Italy? France? Spain? Greece? They're world famous for food. And that's not to get into German bread, Scandinavian fish. And that's just the "famous" food places... Balkans, eastern europe, Georgia
I swear people (too often americans) making ethnic groupings based on skin colour is so ignorant

[Feuerhamster]

Americans don't seem to understand that there's the difference between "seasoned" as in, cooked with reasonable amount of spices and "seasoned" as in drowned in so much seasoned salt that the food tastes like an average League of Legends match.

For some reason you didn't mention cheeses which are a staple in all of european cusines while the rest of the world has a hard time digesting any of the diary products.

If any of you are travelling in America, do your best to eat only at locally owned restaurants. It won't be a complete escape from industrially produced slop, but the core of their dishes will generally be pretty good. Maybe even healthy, provided it isn't something fried. Yeah, we badly need similar food regulations as to what Europeans have. That way the regional variety of foods across the states can really shine unobscured by high fructose corn syrup and chemicals that could mummify a small dog.

Random American: White people can't do spices, ah ah funni

My father always told me about that one time when, on a job trip, a Mexican guy he used to work with tried Cren (a North Italian and southern Germanic horseradish-based spicy sauce)... Well... The dude was crying... Let's say he underestimated the spicy capabilities of Italian food...

I think I saw a similar thing happen on a food YouTube thingy with 'Nduja (A calabrese soft salami paste which is preserved thanks to the fact that it's heavily spiced with south Italian chilli pepper, to the point that it's deep red), with similar results...

The only thing we Europeans are more fond of other than deciding who of us is has the best culture on the continent is collectively agreeing that our cultures are better than whatever the US comes up with

>European food video
>Not a single mention of Spain

Aye, that goes into the Book. You've earned an enemy for life!

svíčková is traditional Czech sauce made from root vegetables and heavy cream, served with a beef slice and bread dumplings. Even tough it is not seasoned, it has strong taste and foreigners enjoy it very much

White people food is good food. Balkan people food is God tier.

[cloroxbleach]

The whole "White people" thing is an Americanisation of language. There's no such thing as a "White" identity in Europe and people who apply the "White people" joke on Europe are simply misguided.

The irony is though, to us Asians we generally DO just see you all as a monolith like you guys do with us, but "Western" food has always been seen as pretty delicious, though stereotypical, but never bland.

Point is, the "bland white people food" thing is ironically an American idea, a country that's majority white where you'd think there'd be more nuance.

[PoyoPoyomfs]

I never understood this considering a lot of the most common foods people love worldwide are mostly "white foods" pizza would be one of the examples.

It sucks having traditional American cooking be commodified and and altered for mass consumption. There are many great American dishes and styles if you are willing to look. Chicken Divan (with cranberry sauce) comes to mind. A lot of good American food comes from New England, and England itself being our original stock. New England clam chowder and Maine lobster roles comes to mind.

I think you have to also understand, historically in the US "white" was generally reserved for Anglo-Saxon people. Eastern, Southern, Central European, along with most Latin speaking, all Jewish (regardless of race) and Irish communities were not identified as being "white".
That is why in the US you had Irish neighborhoods, Greek neighborhoods, Italian neighborhoods. They were separated culturally from what American people identified them as today. The new concept of European = White person is a concept that changed less than 100 years ago. A Slovenian person, as an example would have been identified as a "non white/other" in a historical context in the US/America.
