Americans especially love to treat themselves to popcorn while watching some interesting movie, scooping up their favorite treat in handfuls. By the way, there are about a hundred varieties of popcorn: orange popcorn, amaretto popcorn, chocolate-covered popcorn, popcorn with nuts - and these are just a few varieties of sweet popcorn, not to mention no less tasty with spicy and salty flavors.
Exotic Indian cuisine has something to surprise the guests of the country. People get into another world – taste and visual. The most popular dish that is a specialty of South Indian cuisine is Masala dosa, a thin sourdough rice pancake. It is served with coconut chutney (sauce). Inside the pancake is a filling of potatoes and cabbage.
Chips appeared in 1853, when the chef of the restaurant decided to teach a lesson to a dissatisfied "too fat potato" customer. The potatoes that he cooked were no thicker than a sheet of paper and were very liked by the demanding visitor. Since then, accidentally invented chips have conquered the whole world.

Spanish paella is prepared in different ways, each province has its own recipe for cooking this dish. But, of course, the main components of paella are rice, tomatoes and olive oil.
Delicious Thai salad. Prepared in a special mortar, where papaya, carrots, garlic, peanuts, green beans and tomato are mixed. Fish sauce and lime juice add a characteristic taste to the salad. Oh, almost forgot! And, of course, a lot of chili peppers, without them nowhere.
Often this dish is called the national dish in Singapore. Chicken meat is boiled or steamed and placed on top of fragrant, seasoned rice. Cucumber or lettuce is used as a side dish. This creation of Thai chefs is considered one of the least spicy dishes.
44. Putin, Canada
Do not rush to associate this dish with the President of Russia, it has nothing to do with him, and the emphasis in this word falls on the last syllable. In fact, Canadian poutine is nothing more than potatoes with cream cheese and sauce. Translated, this word means "mess", which is not surprising, because a dish can include a wide variety of additional ingredients. Canadians say that Putin delivers special pleasure after a few bottles of beer.
Or, alternatively, tacos. This is a tortilla or wheat cake rolled into a tube and stuffed with a wide variety of products, such as sausages, cheese, cacti, onions, corn, fruit mixtures, etc. On top of such a pancake can be covered with guacamole (avocado pulp sauce). Tacos are perfect for breakfast. It is for this reason that no visitor to Mexico has left the country weighing less than upon arrival.
In fact, food warmer is a beer production waste that the German chemist Justus Liebig invented to use as a protein-rich paste. It has a thick texture and is very salty in taste. This is a treat for everyone - you can love it or hate it for life. But especially faithful admirers of marmite can also put a layer of marmalade on top of such a toast. Yum-yum, in a word.
Yes, the name is not appetizing, but this does not prevent gourmets from ranking it among the most exquisite products of Southeast Asia. The smell of tofu fermentation (namely, thanks to this process, the cheese is so “flavorful”) is so unbearable that sometimes memories of it haunt people who are unaccustomed to such exoticism for several months. That is why this type of tofu is forbidden to trade on the streets - you can only try it in a restaurant. But is it worth experiencing such a culinary shock? Yes, this legendary taste is worth it.
The main thing is not to be deceived by cheap imitation, where they use soy paste or almond essence. Real marzipan is a combination of crushed almonds and powdered sugar. The dessert is so tasty that, without noticing it, you can eat a serious amount of goodies. The city of Lübeck is rightfully considered the king of marzipans, where the old recipe for sweets is kept in the strictest confidence.
39. Ketchup, USA
Even if Malcolm Gladwell - a famous Canadian journalist and sociologist - says that this is a great food, then it is so. The American obsession with tomatoes led to the invention of ketchup in the 19th century.
After a meal of French toast, it doesn't hurt to check your cholesterol levels.
Two toasted toasts are generously smeared with jam or peanut butter and served with a good helping of syrup (maple, strawberry, or apple).
The Australians cook this Italian dish as well as if they invented it themselves. Chicken fillet, thickly drenched in melted parmesan and mozzarella, with a spicy garlic-tomato sauce - mmm ... just lick your fingers!
36. BBQ, Texas
Each state has its own barbecue tradition. Americans are very fond of enjoying a dish with the aroma of a campfire in nature. However, in different places and grilled dishes are different. For example, in Tennessee they are delighted with ribs, in North Carolina they chop the meat after roasting and make a sandwich, and in Kentucky it doesn’t matter at all what kind of meat to cook, because the main thing is the branded marinade. And finally, Texas. They won’t waste time here – a solid pork steak, generously covered with spicy salsa – that’s how you need to relax in nature!
You can't visit Singapore and not try the local bestseller, the chili crab.
The crab is literally buried in a sauce made from a variety of spices, eggs and rice flour. You won’t be able to finish the sauce with a spoon - hot buns, which are traditionally served with the dish, will come to the rescue.
Have you ever tried eating pancakes without maple syrup? It's like eating a piece of cardboard. Poorly prepared cardboard. This is what the people of Canada think and are very proud of their traditional treat.
33. Fish and chips, UK
Inexpensive and nutritious dish, originally from 1860. During the First World War - simple food that helped the poorest sections of society avoid starvation.
Deep-fried fish with crispy French fries still holds its own and is an integral part of English cuisine.
National cuisine can tell a lot about its people. The cult dishes of a particular country are often known throughout the world and are even included in the daily diet of many families. Other dishes are no less tasty and original, but for some reason they have not become so popular abroad. So, without further ado, we present you the best traditional dishes from around the world.
Bigos, Poland
It's a stew with sauerkraut. There are many options for bigos, and both cabbage and meat (pork or game, smoked sausage, etc.) can be different.
Colcannon, Ireland
It's mashed potatoes and cabbage. Usually served as a side dish with boiled ham, grilled brisket or sausages. 
Fried mussels with french fries, Belgium
You can try "moules frites" in almost any Belgian restaurant, but be careful: one portion weighs one and a half kilograms! Locals joke that french fries are universal, but "mussels from Brussels", that is, "mussels only in Brussels." 
Ful medames, Egypt
This is a puree of boiled beans with garlic, lemon juice and olive oil. Due to the cheapness and nutritional value of this dish, ful has been an important part of the diet of the common people since ancient times. Since full is a difficult to digest dish, it is eaten for breakfast or, in extreme cases, for lunch. 
Fasolada, Greece
This is a soup with white beans, vegetables (usually tomatoes and peppers) and olive oil. It is believed that a simple and hearty dish was popular in ancient Greece. 
Meatballs, Denmark
Meat balls made from ground veal, beef and pork are not like those that float in our favorite soup. Danish "frikadellers" are cutlets, which are served with boiled potatoes and sauce in the best traditions. 
Adobo, Philippines
Adobo is a popular Filipino dish made from meat, seafood and vegetables marinated in vinegar, as well as soy sauce and garlic. Although the name of the dish is Spanish ("adobar" means "marinade"), the cooking method is specifically Filipino. 
Chilis en Nogada, Mexico
The name of the dish translates as "chili in walnut sauce." That is, these are peppers stuffed with rice and meat and poured with walnut sauce. The colors of the dish represent the colors of the Mexican flag: green chili, white walnut sauce and red pomegranate seeds. Very patriotic! 
Ajaico, Colombia
This is a potato soup with chunks of chicken, corn and guasco, a fragrant herb that gives the soup its characteristic flavor. A thick homogeneous cream soup is most often served with sour cream, capers and avocados. 
Bulgogi, South Korea
Bulgogi (or bulgogi) are grilled marinated pieces of beef or veal. Prepared with heads of garlic, peppers and onions, served with leafy vegetables such as cabbage. 
Crepes, France
This is a type of pancakes that are cooked in milk without yeast starter. Crepes can be baked on one side (when served with toppings) and are often used to make pies and cakes. 
Peking Duck, China
One of the most popular and ancient dishes of the country, "beijing kaoya", is prepared as follows: a duck carcass is rubbed with honey and baked in a special oven, and cut into thin slices when serving. Mandatory condition: the duck skin must be crispy, thin and non-greasy. Duck is served with tangerine tortillas, onion and sweet burdock sauce. 
Fish and Chips, UK
This is a deep-fried fish (traditionally cod, but can be any other with white meat, such as haddock or flounder) with large slices of french fries. Simple and very tasty! 
Feijoada, Brazil
It is a stew-like dish of beans, meat products and farofa (cassava flour). The hearty meal is served in a clay pot with cabbage, an orange wedge and, optionally, rice. According to a common version, the feijoada was invented 300 years ago by slaves brought to Brazil from Africa. 
Pad Thai, Thailand
A favorite dish of the locals is fried rice noodles with shrimp and/or meat, as well as tofu, fish sauce, shallots, bean sprouts and pickled radishes. 
Ramen, Japan
Broth with wheat noodles and sometimes meat, pickles, eggs, nori and other ingredients is the most popular Japanese fast food. 
Currywurst, Germany
These are ordinary sausages with ketchup-based sauce and curry powder, 800,000,000 servings of which are eaten annually in Germany. 
Arepa, Venezuela
Lush stuffed cornmeal pancakes are a wonderful breakfast. Inside can be put cheese, avocado or both, which is very popular in this country. 
Pho, Vietnam
This is a soup with noodles, where they put pieces of beef or chicken, or fried fish. The soup is garnished with Asian basil, mint, lime and bean sprouts. 
Pasta, Italy
Here's a dish that has spread to the whole world, so it's pasta. There are thousands of varieties of pasta - both forms of pasta, and additions to a hot dish. 
Putin, Canada
Yes, calm down! The French name is poutine, and the stress is on the last syllable. The national dish of Quebec is french fries topped with cheese slices topped with a sweetened gravy. The dish was first prepared in the 1950s, but today it can be found not only in ordinary restaurants, but also in Canadian branches of McDonald's, Burger King and KFC chains.
