Culinary Map Of Europe According To France (2015)
Were the French always a bunch of pretentious elitist pricks or did that only start after some specific event?
Their food is good but it certainly isn't significantly better than many other places.
They still smoke like chimneys.
They are still pretty misogynistic.
They make terrible cars and pretty much all their manufacturing may as well have their quality control run by Helen Keller.
Their "world famous" city smells like piss and is a filthy mess (unless they decide to clean it up for something like the Olympics).
Their police are notorious for abusing their power and attempting to silence reporters or the media.
Rotten cabbage rocks, especially the Korean varieties
Lol, the French cannot even make wine as good as Italians can and they think they can touch their food?
"Ice cube salad"?
Our Finnish cuisine is so non-existent people can't even make jokes about it.
Uuuhh... the starvation bark bread? I think there was a reindeer meat pizza that one some award.
Whatever, our own one thing is a vaguely modified American dish, and comes from Quebec, so you're not alone.
That's not cuisine, that's a dish. It's a Finnish dish, but the cuisine is technically Italian.
We don't have a cuisine in the same way in the North as mainland Europe does. Like do you know what the national dish of Finland is? Karjalanpaisti, Karelian stew. Which when traditionally made, has the following ingredients ONLY; beef cubes, pork cubes, a mildly salted pot of water.
Heat for several hours.
That's it.
Like people joke about how bland British food is but it's literally on fire compared to our traditional dishes. Like a shepherd's pie made with a red wine and even bland-ish British spices would be absolutely gorgeous compared to Karelian stew.
I think the national dish really reflects the Finnish spirit well though.
LOL, that's funny. As an italian, I regret not having tried real french cuisine yet.
They can’t even make wine as good as you can. They shouldn’t even think to criticize the food
Marie Antoinette?
What cuisine should that be?
A fillet of some kind.
Cake, maybe?
Eat the rich
I think this belongs more in !cartographyanarchy@lemm.ee
But I chuckled so thanks for sharing
"The Vast Atlantic Ocean" is 😙🤌
Cruel, heartless, totally deserved. Appropriate friendly banter.
What do you mean? That's just reality, isn't it?
"inventors"
is the best diss i've ever seen for modern swedish food
i asked a friend from italy what she thought about our pizza and she basically said "as long as i don't think of it as pizza it's fine"
she and her bf would regularly hang out with the guy who ran the only italian pizzeria in town and they would shit-talk our food for hours. mad respect.
More like according an American person who identifies as French.
Meh, "proper cuisine" is definitely accurate since it's our national pride, but most of the others don't really feel like french stereotypes. "Soggy pastry" for Denmark even sounds suspiciously american, I've never heard anyone say that about this country in France and I don't even know what it's referring to
Yeah as a Scandinavia living in france, all that part is totally off too.
The Meatball thing? Sounds amerikanish too, def not french.
I took a look at the website this is coming from, it seems to be mostly the blog author's interpretation of what the stereotypes are for each of their maps
Chicken Tikka Masala was invented in the UK. I can't think of a single item of French cuisine I would choose over Chicken Tikka Masala.

you're insulting yourself and CTM more than french cuisine there mate.
The best restaurants I've ever been to have been in London. But, then, they rarely serve "traditional" English food. Dollar for dollar, the food in London is better than the food in Paris.
Outside of London - sorry, I agree with the map. English cuisine has a few of things they do better than anyone else, but the meals have not impressed me. I can't speak for the rest of the UK; I haven't visited Scotland or Ireland, and only drove a few miles in Wales by accident.
However. I will fight anyone for a Cornish pasty. I don't know where they were invented, but like all great foods they're both delicious and made with, like, 6 ingredients.
My credentials include more than a single trip. I've had 4 vacations in France, and 2 years lived for 2 weeks every other month in Paris. I've had two vacations in England, and lived for 1-2 weeks every month in London, again for two years running. I have a great amount of experience with restaurants at all price ranges in both cities, and a reasonable exposure to cuisine outside of the capitals.
I agree. But we don’t get recognised. I couldn’t be more amused.
This feels more like !cartographyanarchy@lemm.ee!
Thanks for mentioning, I didn't know about this. Just subbed!
It's ironic that they've missed out Ireland, throwing some great hunger shade.
What's "soggy pastry" talking about?
I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest "Danish".
I'm more concerned about the fact that they think Austrians subsist on the corpse of a queen.
The French admit that ‘French fries’ are in fact Belgian? Sounds very un-French.
I don't. I don't necessarily think they're French either tho, but France, Spain and Chile each have a better claim to it than Belgium.
The term French Fries was most likely coined by American GIs, the French never had anything to do with that
pomme frites??
Yeah that's surprisingly one thing we all agree on
No such thing as too much pepper
if ćevapčići is famine food call me starved
Every frenchperson who came to serbia eats like they have never tasted food before. Dunno
