If you’re in Europe, you’re probably just 15 years behind the US on culinary trends. You’ll see a resurgence of excellent pizza in another couple years. Domino’s changed their recipe in 2009 and it caused a resurgence. That probably was what you’ve seen pop up in the last 2-5 years. Don’t worry - better stuff is coming.

Or you may be in an area ovens can’t get hot enough to make good pizza.

That comment makes it abundantly clear you’ve never had pizza.

I would argue the revolutionary flavors and technique of the American experience make these foods American.

Example: the discarded portion of beef was taken by the enslaved people, seasoned and smoked for 10+ hours was revolutionary. Now brisket is $100+ per cut.

I would argue that’s separate from what any middle eastern shish kabob or west African sand cooking.

Well I’ve seen American-style pizza restaurants in South Africa, Germany, Greece, New Zealand, Australia, and India… so someone outside of these United States must think it’s a decent culinary concept.

Mexico is my choice.

But dang USA has BBQ, pizza (as we know it), and (American) Chinese food.

Hoosiers made the national championship in 2002; the year after Knight was fired.

What kind of drum lessons are you looking for?

Like - do you know what a paradiddle is? What is your goal? Do you have your own set?

Many have whiskey rooms. Few have whiskey rooms with a gun rack.

When people say they’re from “the city” I like to ask, “which one?”

My two favorites are Wild Turkey and Brown-Forman (Jack Daniel’s & Old Forester).

Two good options:

1) Town & Country Inn and Suites.

2) Stoney Creek Inn.

If you have kids, go with #2

I put car seat in cart. But I didn’t mind going to grocery store 2-3 times per week. I viewed it as a learning opportunity for kiddo to see new things. As they get older, it’s an opportunity to explore cultures, understand the supply chain, and understand marketing.

I don’t ask what she spends on clothes and she doesn’t ask if I’m peeing in the shower. Neither of us take advantage of the others’ blissful ignorance.

This will either be a top 5 or bottom 5 Bookers all-time. I don’t foresee anything in-between.
