Last week, I wrote a listicle, titled 11 Foods That Should NOT Exist As a follow-up, I thought it would be entertaining to write about 11 Foreign Foods that should not leave existence. I love food, and there are too many delicious choices out there, so 11 will just have to suffice. Without further ado, I give you the 11 different foods:
1. Escargot
Yes escargot are snails, but it is a delicacy! You wouldn't eat them raw, but cooked(obviously). But if you eat them cooked with garlic butter than it makes for one amazing dish! They also make for a dinner party favorite!
2. Goulash
Do you want soup, but not anything too light? You have that carnivorous friend who doesn't want any vegetables in their soup? You have that one potato obsessed friend? Look no further than Goulash! A meaty and potato goodness without being too heavy! It's definitely a childhood favorite!
3. Currywurst
If you like sausage, spice, and fries you'll definitely love currywurst! Germans love, and I mean LOVE this fast-food dish!
4. Filet Mignon
It's literally a miniature steak! A perfect portion as well. Rich, with a great combination of light!
5. Pasta
Penne, Linguini, cavatappi, etc! Pasta is too delicious! There are too many sauces and meats to choose from! If you are not a vegetable person, you can easily incorporate them into pasta!
6. Wiener Schnitzel
I'm not talking about this Americanized disgrace...
I'm talking about this wonderful dish:
It's a meat that's light, without excluding the flavor! I love this breaded meat! And it is nothing like Chicken Tenders! Not that I have anything against Chicken Tenders, I love Chicken Tenders but these are not chicken tenders!
7. Wanton Soup
This soup is so light! If you're on a diet, or trying to watch your calories Wanton Soup is a great soup to eat! It's delicious and fun to say in a Chinese accent! WANTON! Not making fun of the Chinese, it's just fun to say!
8. Pizza
I think most of us can agree on this! Btw, you're missing out if you haven't had true pizza from Italy! But just look at this amazingness! Are you in love yet?
9. Döner
How the hamburger is a classic fast-food item, for Germans and Turks it's the Döner! It's essentially season lamb and mutton with lettuce served with kebab sauce! Kebab sauce is light yogurt, sour cream, and lime juice that's blended together to make the white sauce you see!
10. Gyro
All I can say is that the Greeks now what they are doing!
11. Poutine
Cheese Curds, gravy, and fries yum! Canadians, I'm sorry you get a lot of hate, but you sure know how to make some mean poutine!
