I mean... sure.
But I've travelled a whole lot of the world and some places on average have way better food than others. It's sort of impossible to go to Lyon, France, say, and then pretend everywhere else's food is just like different, but no worse.
- emodendroket 10y agoIf you spent a year or more in a Lyon I think you'd have a much easier time thinking of things you wished they had.
- CPLX 10y agoIndeed. But dramatically less so than, say, Lyon Puerto Rico.
- emodendroket 10y agoSorry, I just don't buy it. I spent a year in Japan and they had lots of great foods that I have only found pale imitations of elsewhere. But they also lacked foods that I love and can find in the allegedly culinarily impoverished United States. And I can say similar things about other places I have traveled (including Puerto Rico), although without the same sort of supreme confidence.
