People who shit on potatoes have never eaten a good potato in their lives

I just realised that 90% of the worlds food variety just comes from the fact that there was no fridge back then. :|

Americans don't seem to understand that there's the difference between "seasoned" as in, cooked with reasonable amount of spices and "seasoned" as in drowned in so much seasoned salt that the food tastes like an average League of Legends match.

Give a hungarian unlimited supply to spices he won't touch it. But give a hungarian an unlimited supply of paprika and sour cream for a day and you'll go bankrupt

The whole "White people" thing is an Americanisation of language. There's no such thing as a "White" identity in Europe and people who apply the "White people" joke on Europe are simply misguided. The irony is though, to us Asians we generally DO just see you all as a monolith like you guys do with us, but "Western" food has always been seen as pretty delicious, though stereotypical, but never bland. Point is, the "bland white people food" thing is ironically an American idea, a country that's majority white where you'd think there'd be more nuance.

U got my hungry ass ordering Uber eats at 5am brooo

The only thing we Europeans are more fond of other than deciding who of us is has the best culture on the continent is collectively agreeing that our cultures are better than whatever the US comes up with

when people say "white people food" it's almost always in the context of the US, that's where all the racial tension is with each one trying to up the other. everyone knows the german,italian,spanish,french cuisines and their wide variety of food

I think what bothers me more about the whole white/poc food debate in the US is the smugness. They'll trash European food all day without considering *any* cultural or historical subtext of the people that made the food what it is. And obviously it's fine to have preferences but I've seen so many videos of youtubers trying things and their critique of "white" people food is always verging on the side of spiteful for no reason other than their stupid culture/race war. The past few years there's been a rise in defending Chinese American cuisine (like panda express) and people will state how this type of food was made by male workers who were alone, didn't have the knowledge of how to cook elaborately like their wives/mothers, didn't have access to ingredients and needed something fast and preferably able to be carried to work. And that's great. we should be acknowledging the past and "honouring" it (sorry, don't remember the specific word needed here). And this goes on with most cultures, which is great to see. However, the people that are now defending immigrant food don't extend the same courtesy to ANY European cuisine bc it's white, and... ok? Sorry that we have different ways of cooking? Sorry that we're not from a place that could geographically produce the spices *you* want to eat for you to.. idk, respect us? Like us? Idk why any European would care about being liked by any Northern American but anyway- Being proud of your cuisine is one thing, we're all competitive in Europe and everywhere in the world with everything, especially our food. But like, being so smug about who seasons their food the most is such a weird thing to be so passionate about? And the stupidest hill to die on? Literally no one is forcing you to eat it, why are we even having this discussion, pls get a hobby. Also, the "white" thing is so recent in a historical context since only the Anglosaxons were considered white till less than a 100 years ago. You had Italians, Greeks, IRISH, Central and Eastern Europeans who were considered less than dogs, much less "white" so this whole thing becomes even funnier when you sit on it for more than a second.

Who'd be hating on "white people food"? Hello? Italy? France? Spain? Greece? They're world famous for food. And that's not to get into German bread, Scandinavian fish. And that's just the "famous" food places... Balkans, eastern europe, Georgia I swear people (too often americans) making ethnic groupings based on skin colour is so ignorant

Especially with northern European food I think it's often just not something you can casually try. They either serve you a warmed up ready made meal or it's going to be real expensive. Also these "race memes" are pretty much USA exclusive as there's no such "white" identity in Europe. In general USA seems to be obsessed about race and skin colour.

As an Indian I never understood the "White People" food thing . I still remember my trip to Italy where I had actual pizza and pasta dishes and they were delicious ..

White people food is good food. Balkan people food is God tier.

>European food video >Not a single mention of Spain Aye, that goes into the Book. You've earned an enemy for life!

A major factor is that European food got shafted harder by modern industrial food processing. If you make European food with inferior ingredients you often get slop, other foods turn out at least passable.

If any of you are travelling in America, do your best to eat only at locally owned restaurants. It won't be a complete escape from industrially produced slop, but the core of their dishes will generally be pretty good. Maybe even healthy, provided it isn't something fried. Yeah, we badly need similar food regulations as to what Europeans have. That way the regional variety of foods across the states can really shine unobscured by high fructose corn syrup and chemicals that could mummify a small dog.

For some reason you didn't mention cheeses which are a staple in all of european cusines while the rest of the world has a hard time digesting any of the diary products.

I never understood this considering a lot of the most common foods people love worldwide are mostly "white foods" pizza would be one of the examples.

Emphasizing the main ingredient: 🤢 Overpowering everything with the same spices so all the 500 dishes taste the same: 😋

It sucks having traditional American cooking be commodified and and altered for mass consumption. There are many great American dishes and styles if you are willing to look. Chicken Divan (with cranberry sauce) comes to mind. A lot of good American food comes from New England, and England itself being our original stock. New England clam chowder and Maine lobster roles comes to mind.

svíčková is traditional Czech sauce made from root vegetables and heavy cream, served with a beef slice and bread dumplings. Even tough it is not seasoned, it has strong taste and foreigners enjoy it very much

I think you have to also understand, historically in the US "white" was generally reserved for Anglo-Saxon people. Eastern, Southern, Central European, along with most Latin speaking, all Jewish (regardless of race) and Irish communities were not identified as being "white". That is why in the US you had Irish neighborhoods, Greek neighborhoods, Italian neighborhoods. They were separated culturally from what American people identified them as today. The new concept of European = White person is a concept that changed less than 100 years ago. A Slovenian person, as an example would have been identified as a "non white/other" in a historical context in the US/America.

European white people food be like - freaking the most delicious cuisines

You don't have to put a kilogram of spices (South Americans and Asians are free to disagree) to make a food taste divine. Also, people hate on "white people" food? Helllloooooo!! Italy, France, Spain? What are they? Green? For me, Italian food is the food of the gods. While they have some nasty stuff (like the cheese with maggots), most of Italian cuisine is absolutely divine. France's cuisine is too heavy for me mainly because of their constant usage of butter. Also, who the hell doesn't like potatoes?

I like the 🇩🇪Munich Sausage, 🇷🇸Cevapi, 🇷🇺Pelmeni and for Georgian food 🇬🇪Shashlyk, since we counting it as Europe.

No mention of mushrooms? Umami through the roof

Random American: White people can't do spices, ah ah funni My father always told me about that one time when, on a job trip, a Mexican guy he used to work with tried Cren (a North Italian and southern Germanic horseradish-based spicy sauce)... Well... The dude was crying... Let's say he underestimated the spicy capabilities of Italian food... I think I saw a similar thing happen on a food RU-vid thingy with 'Nduja (A calabrese soft salami paste which is preserved thanks to the fact that it's heavily spiced with south Italian chilli pepper, to the point that it's deep red), with similar results...

People who say this have never had a succulent roast beef dinner with rost potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, honey carrots and gravy.

And let’s not forget America too has its own variety of food cultures and histories, from the clam chowder, fried clams, apple cider donuts, & lobster rolls (Connecticut or Maine style) of New England, to the smoky & flavorful briskets and pulled pork of southern barbecue, to the sheer seasoning and flavor of Louisiana Cajun, American cuisine isn’t just 50’s era meatloafs, casseroles, and whatever is on the McDonalds menu.

You said that Carbonara has panchetta. While it is an acceptable alternative, the traditional meat in carbonara is guanciale

This is a meme started mostly by black americans to rib white americans. Strange to see it being addressed by europeans when it was never about you guys.

In Europe, we've actually forgotten a lot of our traditional cousine. Like, snails used to be traditional old bohemian food. Nowadays, if you say that to people, they think you're mad. Also, a huge variations of sweet and salty kaše, and much much more.

when people think of American food, they mainly think of the north, with more industry. There is southern comfort foods, which utilize a lot of the European techniques, combine with African and Mexican techniques to produce a rich flavor that is unique to the south and west.

Shared a house when young with, among others, 4 Hungarians. Those MF's gave me a culinary education

I grew up in Portugal in a fishing town and the one thing that people emphasise is "freshness of ingredients", especially when it comes to fish and other seafood. If it's fresh, all you need is a little bit of salt and lemon when grilling fish.

One technique that should be mentioned is *marinating.* People who hate on chicken breasts have never tasted a properly marinated piece of chicken. The secret is adding something acidic (be it lemon juice or yogurt) to the marinade in order to soften up the meat. Of course, much like with pickling, marinating meat makes it last longer once it is cooked. Just compare eating an unmarinated chicken breast a day after it was grilled, with a marinated one, and you will see which is still delicious. Oh, right, a bit of sugar in a marinade really helps with caramelization, if you want that.

"White" people food almost always means White American food. European food is really good except for maybe Britain.

Chinese cuisine today within China. I keep seeing gutter oil, wet markets with live rodents and other questionable animals and straight up fake food that's either injected or sprayed on with a dye. But if I'd bring this up I'd be a racist and close minded.

Romanian food is criminally underrated. It’s like if Russian food was actually good.

I grew up in Poland and I can confirm that homemade Pierogi is a divine dish. The amount of time to make them though...

János could have made the whole video about hungarian food

as an Asian i absolutely love this inspirational explanation of white people food. food is just real life adaptations with the food , technology and geography people have around them . put an asian into Europe long enough n they'll start to need making Europe -ish food more and more. and vice versa.

Incredibly he didn't even mention Spanish and Romanian food 😮

I worked all across Adriatic coast in Croatia as a chef. And it's crazy while most of the guests were mainly from UK food was always rigged towards them. So baked beans, sausages and on dinner fish and chips and shit like that...Like you traveled out of your country to eat same food 😂

Wait, finnish polka to represent Germany!? Säkkijärven polka is a nice musical piece, but you're asking for a second partition of Yugoslavia with stunts like this.

"White People Food" IS the nitpicked example you showed. It's the War Time/depression era food that has lasted for far too long and is kinda depressing to eat. And the elitest flip flop between "season your chicken" and "Don't cover up the taste of the *blank* with spices" will last as long as culturally distinct food exists.

Anything with feta and tomato from Greece is top tier. Their tomatoes have the best flavor I’ve ever tasted on any tomato and the feta is to die for

British people: Conquer most of the world spice production areas colonize them, and use none of it. Meanwhile Hungarians: We can add some paprika. -Anything else? -MORE Paprika. Seriously, I love asian foods (mainly Japanese and Chinese) but also Italian ones. And I honestly proud that Italians have a good opinion about Hungarian food!

I think it comes down to: european food is generally seen as """normal""" so only fringe or low tier food associated. You don't say "I love chinese food!" and think about fermented eggs

Fun fact: I was just watching trash taste talk about white people food when this popped up on notification

As someone from southern Europe living in an “English speaking country”, I learned to never ask my colleagues what they are having for lunch. And no, if your mom cooked you spam she didn’t love you that much.

Funny how it were the Portuguese that gave the Africans Piri piri chicken, the Indians samosas and chilis, and gave the Japanese tempura. Best cuisine in the wrld right there and you're all copying us.

The whole white people food thing is such silly American ignorance.

saying anglo food is "white people food" is like saying burnt dry poorly seasoned curry is "indian food", or saying that unseasoned bat soup is "chinese food" LMAO.

Southern Europeans on their way to cook the best food you'll ever taste

Sarmale not mentioned. Extraordinarely dissapointed.

The worst food crime for me is using too much hot spice or sauce to the point where you don't taste anything but the burning in your mouth.

Chile is the king of white people food. And I say that as a white immigrant. Blandest shit I ever ate. I had to teach myself how to cook (I make a great beef bourguignon) when I arrived, it's so bad. When a Chilean invites you out for a traditional meal, they take you to a Peruvian restaurant.

Central European cuisine wants to have a word with you

We eat stuff that gives us the power to work and create things. The others make spicy dishes because it makes their ah tickle.

I have travelled the world and found out that in all parts of the world people are not idiots and they know what is good and how to prepare it. UK, South America, all over Europe, Asia, Australia, Canada, everywhere I found splendid food (but not only). You eat the best whereever non processed ingredients are beeing used. Which are hard to find in the US, with its not health-, but profit-centered food laws. Locally owned eaterys are hard to find there, but they are the places to go.

Greek food casually chilling in the corner

As eastern european it's so strange for me when black people talk about how seasonings but at the same time talk how poor they are. I was so happy to be able to season my food when I first had money to do so. I remember it to this day. I just can't comprehend how can you be poor and be able to season you food at the same time

Ask the seasoning police about their culture's dairy products, cheeses and/or baked goods and watch as they clutch their chicken over the kitchen sink trying to think of an answer.

The white people rule the pastries The Indians ruled the spices The latins ruled the sandwiches/wraps The Asains ruled the sea food The middle eastern ruled the meat

When people remember pizza, paella and gulash are white people food

Just listing every European bread, cheese, wine and beer would take you days non stop. And then you haven’t even mentioned the fact that europeans created chocolate and basically every sugary dessert/pastry ever.

If you hate british food, then try lancashire hotpot. Truly an elite stew if ever there was one.

Not to forget that the Ottoman empire was essentially a balkan empire. Giving Balkaners and Anatolians and access to Asia's market combined with the best chefs from each region in the empire. These have given birth to god-like cuisines like Greek and Turkish.

People who say "white people food" forget that Slavs exist. Thank fuck my mom and her side of the family are from the Balkans and I grew up with great food.

I remember hearing white people food growing up as an immigrant in Southern Louisiana. I didn't understand what they meant because the local white people's (mostly Cajuns) food was incredible and my own family's cooking (white Jews from the Balkans) was also pretty good Then I went to the Northern half of the state, Utah, East Texas, North Florida, and Nebraska and it clicked for me what people were referring to when they said "white people food". They're not actually referring to "white people food" they're actually referring to "scots-Irish/Anglo-Saxon/Americanized Dutch and Scandinavian food". I was later vindicated in this opinion when I visted London and found most of the classic "British" foods to be bland and forgettable (not necessarily bad, just bland and forgettable) whereas the food made by immigrants including immigrants from other parts of Europe was actually very good and very flavorful

In my opinion, good European food is also supposed to match with a good wine or beer. Spicy food simply does not fulfil this condition and in many other parts of the world it´s not as common to have those drink with a meal.

showing Vincenzo making Carbonara at the same time that you say carbonara has butter in it is guaranteed to invoke his wrath.

Paprykarz is also a traditional Polish cuisine but it looks different from Hungarian Paprykas. It's a traditional fish paste with sweet pepper By "traditional" I mean it was created in the 60s and by "Polish" I mean Szczecin - the most Polish city in the world

Don't regurgitate the lie about spoiled food. Throw some curry on spoiled meat, and you're still getting sick.

Butter in Carbonara? I can hear Italians growling!

There is a difference between using your ingredients to the best of their talents. Like egg, potato, onion, salt and pepper to create a delicious potato pancake that needs no other seasoning. Compared to drowning your spoiled meat from dubious sources in spices as to hide the taste.

"white people food" really annoys me as a hungarian (we put paprika and sour cream in everything)

Hungarian food cuisine's main pillar is pörkölt. You can make lot of different food starting from pörkölt, also you change sides easily. Sides can be pasta, crepes, cabbage, főzelék, potatoes and nokedli for example, adding more water to your pörkölt, you starting make some kind of soup, adding any different veggies will result different types of soup. Also, you can use veggie based pörkölt (like lecsó), or if you feel fancy, adding to your pörkölt little amount of veggie (like peas or mushrooms) or sour cream for different experience. Also, if you mix your fried potato cubes with pörkölt, you made brassói.

Comparing a countries like USA, Indiam, Japan and China to "white people food" i mean Europe is a place where you travel 25km and ppl are speaking a different language, with a different culture and 1000000000000 of different dishes seems logical to compare countries to a continent

People be making fun of white people food and then order a pizza for dinner 💀

The hallmarks of good food are: 1. Ingredients 2. Ingredients 3. Skill 4. Seasoning

You mentioned the 5 mother sauces from France, fair enough, though those are a baseline and are further tweaked to become something greater. What is very unmentioned is the use of stocks, broths, wine, vinegars and various liquors. Europe loves its soups & stews after all. Salads can be a mini series on its own, too much going on.

People shitting on potato-based recipes are uncultured swine.

they think this food is bad because they only got fed in county jail

Just because you need to mask the stench of rotten meat with a bunch of artificial tastes and spices, doesn't mean your cuisine is better.

Should have mentioned the Netherlands! The more standard winter food here goes a bit like this: Take a big pot, add some potatoes, add another vegetable of your choosing(carrot, Kale, Cichorium endivia(there is no english name, we call it andijvie)), mash em together with butter and milk in said pot, and serve with meat of your choosing. actual winter slop 😋

As a German of Indian descent. European* cuisine is actually rad. While I love my cultural cuisine at home, I also enjoy my German bread blessed by our Sauerkraut loving God & all the full grain stuff. Love eating in a German canteine from time to time. Eating the stuff in Budapest & Prague was also delicious. Heavy & meaty, but just delicious. * I don't count British food in the European cuisine club, cuz there's no saving grace in there

As a mixed race person with a hungarian wife . When her family tried caribbean they tend to find it very rich and overly flavoursome because the caribbean people love seasoning the fuck out of meat and stews etc. When i tried hungarian food for the first time it did take some time getting used to in terms of far fewer and more simple flavours , but now i enjoy it just as much as i would eating caribbean food. That said we have alot of similarities where every cut of the meat is not wasted. Caribbeans love cow foot and chicken foot, the hungarians from the villages my wifes family is from loves pig foot and chicken foot . Làngos being my favourite My wife said shes never eaten as much làngush in her life as much as the 5 years we have been together 😊 P.s english food is disgraceful

I live in the UK, and can honestly say that I've never heard of nettle seeds being used as a seasoning in any dish I've ever heard of before, which is odd because nettle teaused to be a thing, and our countryside is absolutely covered in the stuff during summer. I'll have to keep my eye out, I'm curious now!

If I were told that from now on I can only eat white people food available in Hungary, where all the cuisines from the german world meets the balkan and all the hungarian stuff we have anyway, I would say eh, let it be I don't care. I will be perfectly okay for a lifetime.

1:08 is the most inaccurate meme because anyone who eats deer and is named meemaw is the best damn cook this side of the Mississippi and invented half the spices in her cabinet

GARLICK??? IN CARBONARA???? *DIES*

the fact that you did not mention greek cuisine which is arguably the best of the best and one of the most rich cuisines of the world is kind of crazy, i mean yes you can only eat actual greek food in just greece italy turkey and the balkans and it is not spread world wide but cmon, its class

America does have good food, but most is traditional, and not the modern processed food everyone thinks of. I live in rural Appalachia in Virginia and me and my family have a garden and get all our meat (including our own hunted venison) from our local area, and the things you can do with that, wether smoked venison/pork rolls, or fresh banana or zucchini bread, or homemade barbecue with homemade sauce, or a freshly baked trout I caught from a local river. Any of these things will have fresh applesauce, a variety of homemade canned vegetables/fruits, maybe some egg noodles (which yeah we got from the Germans), and for dessert maybe a homemade apple pie or peach cobbler baked in a Dutch oven, or maybe a dessert dish called “Baked Apples” (not the baked apples you’re probably thinking of) that my step mom from New England introduced to my families southern diet. The big takeaway from American food is that it comes from all over the world either Europe, Africa via slaves, Asia, or even the Indians (which btw they were the ones to invent barbecue, not black people). America is a rich and diverse land and we take the best ideas from all the people that live in this great American melting pot.

Its basically the more northern you go the worse the food gets. Trust some of the traditional foods here in iceland would disgusted the whole world

I never see anyone mention Switzerland’s cuisine, but it’s fucking amazing. I was so surprised when i was there. Also the bakeries are elite, i couldn’t stop eating this thing called Gipfeli

There's a difference between traditional european food and fucked up process food combination nightmares in the US. For example, making a bread using a tin of tomato soup. Or putting everything in aspic or gelatin. Or more recently, just poverty meals.

All correct, but one thing: Carbonara "sauce" is made of Pecorino cheese (not Parmigiano cheese), egg, black pepper and Guanciale (not Pancetta: pancetta is something like bacon; guanciale have a particular seasoning), and there aren't neither garlic or cream or mushrooms or chicken! Carbonara is an holy dish! Do it the right way: the Roman way.
