I live in Mexico. Most common dishes would be stuff like mole, tacos, enchiladas and other stuff =P

Ah.

Wow, so many Anglophones here.

Hmm.. I am of mixed heritage so I could share a few dishes.

I'll just share one right now.

In the Philippines, people eat adobo. The name itself refers to the method of cooking. So you could have pork adobo, or chicken adobo. Probably my favorite Philippine dish ever.

That's all I can think of right now.

As for soda, well I do love Mountain Dew.

I live in Italy.
But I don't want to write a poem about food.
You know, we have the best food in the world (if you don't belive me try to pay a visit).
My top favourite food is melanzane alla parmigiana.

Parmigiana is awesome.

And you folks having the very best food is arguable. I can safely say you have some of the best food.

Yeah. Probably it is all a matter of being used to.
I still don't understand how people can actually eat McDonald's food.
Maybe I am spoiled, but you can point the finger on a coutnry and tell their "national dish".
But, not with Italy; you can travel 100 kilometers and find another "tipical dish", different from before.

Not really. Though some countries do have that one quintessential dish or often stereotyped cuisine. Others don't. Apparently Italy doesn't too.

Though I can say that it is a stereotype to instantaneously think of pasta and pizza when Italian cuisine comes to mind.

As for fast food, it's more an issue with one's tastes and preferences. If you always eat good food, you won't find yourself addicted to the scourge of fast food. Eh, some people who eat better even hate eating such greasy and oily food. I, don't really care about the greasiness itself, except for when it comes to nutrition and health.

Sweden, lots of seafood (which I dislike) and Mashed Potatoes with Ketchup. Meatballs are also a specialty.

@LEGEND_beast

Oh, come on can't you think of better dishes?

Right, how about sinigang? Soup/stew with meat and vegetables in this mildly sour broth. Yum.

On a side note...
Are there people that won't eat food?
What are they eating?

Eh... I like Sprite, a classic lemon-lime drink. I just like lemons and limes. And the sugar.
