Make that a cheeseburger, fries, and chocolate milkshake (or root beer float) followed with, of course, apple pie.
|
Yep! Cheeseburger, cheeseburger, cheeseburger!! But also meatloaf? Isn't that distinctly American? And also BBQ? Like good ol' Southern BBQ? Smoked brisket, ribs, etc. Yummmm, getting hungry just thinking about it.

Chili!
|
Pizza

I'll aim a bit higher on the culinary scale and say turkey. I've rarely found it on menus outside the US and it is the one dish that essentially defines a holiday. Can you say that about a cheeseburger?
|
Huh?
What about a hot dog? |
Haven't you ever heard the expression "American as Apple Pie"

fried chicken and mashed potatoes.
|
All of the above!
|
It all sounds good, but I gotta go with the good ol' cheeseburger! Seems you just can't find a decent one outside of the US!
|
The best comfort food: a cheeseburger, fries and a cherry Coke. Milkshake optional but recommended.
|
I like the idea of turkey. These birds were native to the Americas and popularized on dinner tables in the US, so that would be classy. Giving these butt-ugly birds their props culinarily, so to speak.
Still, I do love burgers. However, fries are Belgian (made from potatoes that got to Europe from Peru), so you may have to substitute a more pure American side dish. Boston Baked Beans? Macaroni and Cheese? Hmmm.... |
Steak and beer
Pizza with wine Macaroni and cheese and cheeseburgers |
I agree with all of the above, but would add peanut butter (or PB&J sandwiches) and corn on the cob.
|
Gotta be a cheeseburger. That's what I always crave after coming home from another country. It's kind of like Pavlov's dog--home=cheeseburger!
|
Fajitas, true Tex-Mex is unique and NOT Mexican!
It's what I crave when I travel. Oh that and a HUGE glass of Unsweet Iced Tea with GOBS of ice... not just the 2 pieces that you get in other countries. |
Definately turkey, stuffing/dressing, mashed potatos, cranberry sauce, green beans - the archtypical Thanksgiving Dinner. Nothing more American than that.
|
Confederate States of America- Pork Barbeque, Fried Chicken for Supper. Hominy Grits, Home Fries and Country Ham for Breakfast.
