  • Sub-optimal ADHD coping strategy (kind of a joke). Some people just… don’t have object permanence? Like if they don’t have visual reminders it falls completely out of their brain. I don’t get it because I have a terrible memory but I deal with that by organizing and developing habits like always putting things down in the same spot. I hate sifting through clutter.

    They abandoned the spices when France did. The reason? Poor people could also afford spices so it was no longer a status symbol. The new status symbol was simple meals of very fresh meat and vegetables cooked with complicated methods requiring many hours and loads of practice.

    The US is too big to have a unified cuisine. The UK is hard to compare to because even their accents vary much more across a small geographic area, their cultural regions are strictly divided and enforced thanks to deeply entrenched classism and social pressure.

    Also I just flat disagree that cuisines like Cajun/Creole or Tex Mex or Southwest/Santa Fe don’t qualify as true US cuisines.
