Indeed, and it's not for lack of interest. Trying to imitate European foodstuffs is a huge part of what our food industry does. But since it's produced by the same industrial machine as everything else, it mostly comes out the same. "Greek" yogurt, for instance. Or "Italian" bread. It's as if we understand that Europeans eat better food, but we can't seem to figure out what makes it that way.
- kuschku 11y agoWell, if one wants to figure out why European foodstuffs often has higher quality, that’s simple. If you buy the bread you find at ALDI for half a dollar, that’s made in factories in Poland, that won’t be any better. But most people don’t. Go to a local brick & mortar bakery, usually there’s a bakery that makes fresh bread next to most stores in the suburbs, or, if you’re in a city, at every street corner. Go there, and you’ll find fresh bread, rolls, crossaints, sandwiches, etc. A mix of a bakery, a starbucks, and a subways, but cheaper and better. And of course, fresh, handmade quality bread will be better – as these bakeries’ only selling point is quality. If their quality would not be far above the factory bread, they wouldn’t exist anymore.
