It's a tossup between a hamburger and fried chicken. No sauce
involved. -aem

I would say that the Cheeseburger knocked the hamburger out of it's
lofty position at least 25 years ago.

and don't say it's the same thing, if it was it would be called a
hamburger w/ cheese.

I think that fried chicken wins, but maybe I'm a bit prejudiced
because I'm in the middle of frying chicken right now. I want to add
that every time I go to fry chicken and realize that I'm out of all
purpose flour and have to use pricier cake flour, I find it so worth
it. I should just get it through my frugal head that the amount of
flour used doesn't make the batch of chicken cost significantly
more. From this day on it's cake flour.

Yes, of course. Walleye is our State Fish. Blueberry Muffins are our
State Muffin. Lester is our State Soil. Morel is our State Mushroom.

Heh. I live in what used to be called Frogmore. (Actually, there is still
a small area here known as Frogmore). The cuisine of Charleston leans more
towards French than Gullah/Geechee.

Frogmore Stew consists of a boil of locally made sausages (you may
substitute spanish style chorizo or spicy Italian sausage), corn on the cob,
shrimp, small red potatoes and various herbs and spices. Some folks even
toss in some freshly caught blue crab. You'll need a bucket to toss the
shells and cobs into and plenty of napkins!

The U.S. is too big to have a single NATIONAL food, as you say.

Sorry.

Sheesh your own self. To date, there are about 6 or 8 different
"nominations" for "national food."

I second the vote for apple pie. Even if it was influenced by foods
brought to the New World by immigrants, we have surely made it our
own.

Wow, get out much? All American food is derivative, which with the
success of American Fusion shows to have been successful on the world
stage.


I take it as a tribute to our melting pot that no one dish can be
assigned as the one national food.

50 years ago you probably would have a different answer more along the
lines of the the traditional ones cited here, which I was raised on,
and now seem, well, not archaic, but not as relevent as before. Not as
unifying is probably a better description.

Just off the top of my head i would think the traditional Thanksgiving
day dinner. Turkey, potatoes, corn all 'new world' foods. Even with
regional variations, yams & sweet potatoes in the south, tortillas in
the south west, various sea food additions in the north west & north
east, is still, never the less, distinctively American as roast beef is
English or pasta is Italian and frogs and snails French.

Im not sure if BBQ is an American invention (the social event yes, the
cooking probly not) but it would be on the list of possibilities,
however its tendency to be restricted, in the majority of its use, to a
specific segment of the American socio - economic class system does tend
to render it less than a nation wide phenomena.

I remember seeing an Australian t.v. commercial ( i forget what the
product was) but the punch line was the Queen of England ending up on
the 'barby' rather than having it prepared for her crown and all, as
some sort of indication that the English don't BBQ.

If not the hamburger, hot dog or apple pie, then the traditional turkey dinner....turkey, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce, sweat potatoes, candied yams, etc.

No official sites cited...just American tradition.

Jim Soem academics appear to share your view re the Turkey .
Good call I was wondering when a Turkey would appear (apart from
one who gobbles on about trolls )

Not a dish but if you trust the Livestock Slaughter Report figures, red meat
makes up the majority of the American diet.

With cheese or A1 or not, that's it, in some form.

If you ask the typical Italian, it is Torta di Mele.

offhand, i'd say the american national food is some variation of Too Much.
