obviously you aren't a white westerner, otherwise you'll understand the feeling of waking up in the morning and wanting to arbitrarily split a continent.
I don't understand the rules of the question, because in Canada, we have authentic everything from expats from everywhere so if that counts, I choose A.
If you mean traditional cuisines from the region, I'm going D. Ethiopian cuisine and coffee, various middle eastern, indian, chinese, mongolian, japanese, korean and thai? Yum.
I wonder what sailors eat these days. Id guess probably just whatever sort of food exists where they come from, but maybe skewed towards things that keep well for awhile?
Call me rusty old fashioned, but I'll do just fine with that triangle that includes Morocco, Northern Italy, Spain (Basque, Catalan, etc), France and Portugal.
I'm northern Norwegian, so I'm happy as long as I get to eat fish and sheep that have gone through unspeakable things. Plus I've lived in both Poland and Czechia and they have some pretty nice cuisine there as well.
I would have to pick A for Cajun/Creole, Mexican & Carribean cuisines. It would suck losing asian cuisine, but I can't live without my Jambalaya & etouffee.
C. I'd miss Mexican food but Greek is my favorite and getting Italian food along with seems like a good combo. Unless it isn't just "traditional" foods and you can get everything by just including a country with lots of immigrant groups. (Though, in the latter case, I'd imagine all or most of the slices have at least some people making any given cuisine style given that migration still exists in even not particularly immigrant heavy places.)
E all I need is new Zealand food. We have already taken every other food and fixed it for the new Zealand pallette. Which is to either deep fry it or add more salt.
Wait fuck nz isnt even on the map. They can't keep getting away with this!!

Leave it to a westerner to split up Africa arbitrarily again.

it's like beavers with dams
metallic_substance@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 296d
True, but in this scheme Africa has the absolute best localized selection of any other region on the map
JargonWagon@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 296d
Are New Zealanders considered westerners?
BallShapedMan@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 295d
No idea, but they don't exist again it seems
JargonWagon@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 295d
True, but OP I think is from New Zealand. If so, makes it even funnier if they posted a map without New Zealand.
BallShapedMan@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 295d
That does make it funnier, they even posted it in the community for maps without NZ.
JargonWagon@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 295d
I didn't even realize what the community was lol, this is making more sense.

How do you know this was made by a Westerner?
Godnroc@lemmy.world · 22 pts · 296d
A because I live there and that's too far to travel elsewhere for breakfast.
Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe · 6 pts · 296d
Plus, it has pretty much every cuisine on the map.
French, Cajun, Islander (think Jamaican jerk, etc), eastern European (pierogis, etc), varieties of Asian, etc.
And pretty much all available made by people from those places.

Exactly, although losing Mexican/South American would be soul crushing :(

My thoughts exactly! Are you me?
VAVHV@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 296d

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 11 pts · 296d
D. All I need is Japan and China. They have the best food on the planet.
IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 296d
you also get indian and middle east.

Valmond@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 295d
France & Italy respectfully disagree.
Kolanaki@pawb.social · 1 pts · 294d
France eats snails.
Italy got all their best ideas from Asia.

I'll stick with A, it's what I'm used to. NZ might have issues though.

shalafi@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 296d
A, for sure. You can get pretty much anything, but most importantly it includes New Orleans and Mexico.
neidu3@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 296d
The best food I've ever tasted was in C, plus that's where I grew up, so I picked C.
Also, I've eaten in G before. It was pretty good.
toofpic@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 296d
C means:
France/Belgiumahh, this is sadI will miss Chinese and Japanese, but I'll be more than ok
wieson@feddit.org · 3 pts · 296d
Yep, plus Turkey, big W.
And a little bit of German, at least Bavarian. Which is honestly overlooked but great
toofpic@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 295d
Czech republic is there, with a good overlap with German cousine

One sector has India, China, Western Asia, the Middle East, a chunk of North Africa, and Russia? A bit unfair, no?
Oh wait. H has potatoes. Shit. That is a tough choice.
Akasazh@feddit.nl · 3 pts · 295d
I pick the blue area
threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 292d
No seafood for you.

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 296d
Hope you like Nigerian food
JargonWagon@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 296d
And sea food!
IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 296d
you also get some Antarctic colonies, although I'm not sure what they eat

I'm going with D. Australia has a good variety of cuisines, but I also get to eat foods from the Malaysian Archipelego and part of Africa.
