Polish perogies

pairs well with potato voldka martinis
Eh. I've stated my thoughts on pierogi. Take that stuff to Italy and they'll wonder why you think a shitty version of ravioli is a thing.

That said, my heuristic is that the less temperate your climate, the worse your cuisine will generally be. Merely an access-to-ingredients and growing season thing. Add to that Poland being a historically poor country, and you get things like wrapping potato in pasta being a "delicacy"...

That said, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe Poland has some really phenomenal stuff that I'm just not familiar with.

Great Sausages a buddy use to get all sort of smoked meats from a Polish Meat shop in the Old Town. Much like all the Central - Eastern Euro Contries

my argument is that the USA USA USA should be #1

because, we have great examples of all 14 on the list!

No disagreement... 

But it's not like sausage and smoked meats are particularly unique to Poland... And not like they're the most flavorful versions.

I mean, Italian sausage is delicious. Greek sausage (loukaniko) is amazing. Both versions are FAR more flavorful than Polish sausage. 

Pretty much every culture has their version of sausages, smoked meats, and dumplings... Are we saying that Polish sausage, smoked kielbasa, and pierogi are enough to put Poland in the top 20?

Can't say I know anything about Polish food, but they at least get a good marketing department, polish sausage, polish pickles, polish meatballs.

I did pick up some recipes that I haven't yet tried for beet soups and such. 

I really should learn more about the food of my people :57:

If you’re looking for a soup this fall or winter that’s comforting, filling, and slightly tangy, then give this Polish sauerkraut soup a try. Traditionally known as Kapusniak, it’s a tasty combination of tender pork ribs simmered in a rich broth, combined with the tangy sauerkraut and hearty potatoes.

So video game cover boy Donovan Edwards finishes his 4-year career having never led UM in season carries, yards, or TDs.

Makes sense.  And I thought the CU guy was the hype guy.

Must be pork fans.  

I can't take any map seriously that lists Texas as "Not BBQ."  You can get some great BBQ in Louisiana and Arkansas too.  BBQ is the one thing I haven't seen cajuns put over rice.

Heh, I like things over rice.  I think one can get really really good BBQ in most states.  I had pretty decent real pulled pork in Scotland.

Like I said, trying way too hard. 

Oh and Texas has you covered on the BBQ and rice thing-- there is literally a restaurant in Houston named "Brisket & Rice."  It's a Texas BBQ/Asian fusion restaurant, and among other things, they serve a "brisket fried rice."
