Thought I’d ask this because I want to discover more foods from across the world

(Also I shouldn’t have to say this to americans, please state where you are from and state where you are from without acronyms or shortened names because I’ve seen US Defaultism on lemmy and not all of us are going to know your acronyms considering we’re global users)

      I went to a bar in Nanaimo once. It was the Tally-ho. It was really divey when I was there. But it was that or go back to Cedar and hang out, and there was NOTHING to do in Cedar.

      The baked treat is wayyyy better. Har har.

      But it’s true – we’ve acquired a lot of different foods from people as they moved here, without a real image of our own. At least we can create mishmash of cultures and pick and choose some winners.

      • dim sum with truffle oil and foie gras sounds a little posh
      • street vendor $7 hot dogs with teriyaki and seaweed
      • the iconic nanaimo bar
      • candy-smoked coho

      I guess someone’s gonna have to barbecue a gooeyduck street-side and call it iconic. I’m at a loss
