Go to a WalMart meat counter in the USA and ask for veal, see if there is anybody there who even knows what you are talking about.

The great trade routes and global shipping were developed primarily to transport spices to places where they didn't grow, to become part of all cuisines. Even salt was an expensive exotic in many places, right up to the last century, when a young Ghandi lead a protest against salt taxes and monopolies in India. And tea in colonial America. Would you say that only Cuba can claim to have sugary foods in its national cuisine, which would elsewhere be an exotic?
When I lived in Quebec, Poutine had not been invented yet, but now it is considered the definitive food of Quebec.

Reason: Also this forum really want me to learn Spanish. "Spanish verb chart mess!" Reads my favorite ad.
Most cuisines have both great and revolting dishes. To each his own.
Apparently not, as the Moderator cut: <snip> suggested that Scandinavians are inherently unable to understand good food, as we would have to import people who know "how to eat".
It's especially funny coming from a person who eats seaweed, raw fish eyes and rice spiced with wasabi and semen.

Reason: Rude
And as a Japanese I don't you have any business dissing any other country's cuisine, as 99% of what you eat is absolutely revolting.
Are you serious? There is a reason why Japanese food is popular around the world. Funnily enough I never heard of anyone liking Finnish (or Northern European food).
Okay Ariete... then I don't want to know what you could possibly think of our snails in butter and garlic and frog legs. Or veal, or brain, or "langue de boeuf"... I never tried those but my parents did.
Snails are really good! Frog legs taste like chicken (at least that what I thought).

I think there's more foreigners who had already ate snails than people in France. lol
