    I'm sure things there is a net benefit in food. Its not like you can't have a roast one night and a chicken kebab the next. Food is one of the better upswings of immigration.
    recipes can be written down.

    Yeah and Starbucks makes Espresso's that are twice the cost and half as nice as those made by most Cafes which are run by our European Immigrants.

    There is an advantage to using the expertise of someone who grew up eating a food vs one who photocopied it.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    One word: icecream.

    I mean, Ben & Jerry's may be the best canned icecream in the world, but the handmade zuppa inglese from the Italian shop around the corner (granddad is brought in by car from Turin every two or three months to make the icecream) is unsurpassed.

    ben & jerry's is garbage since unilever bought them. there is better overpriced ice cream availible in the US.

    gelato is better than ice cream anyway.

    OK, so let's put this to the test.
    You treat a girl to a can of Häagen-Dasz.
    I take a girl around the corner and treat her to a zuppa plus an admiring Italian smile the width of Lake Como.
    I win hands down.

    don't discount the currency of the haåaäagen dazs brand name among the ladies. it's like godiva to many of them.

    Girl runs of with the italian you are left with none. I get none but still have a can of icecream to counter my depression.

    I don't win but you lose.
