> TRADITIONAL!!! cuisine Which is no more than a few decades old at most, a century at the outside. People live, people die, and new people do the "same" food differently; people move, new people come, and there's a new influence in both locations. A static view of tradition is a Victorian invention, a reaction to the increasing pace of industrialization, and nothing more than nostalgia. Mix that with the idiotic notion that the Medieval period was a stagnant "dark age" and you have the modern notion of "traditional" "organic" food which was the same for ever until Evil Modernity Literally GMO Monsatan moved in and made a Mordor out of our little Shire.
