These 10 Countries Have the Best Food on Earth

As the saying goes: "Drum Roll Please."

Let's see if you have any issues with this list. I will say I have a big one, but I'm going to wait to share it with you. Maybe you'll agree, too, after finding out the top ten countries with the best food.

According to The Top Tens website, if you travel and have eaten in other countries, this list will hit home for sure, with countries you wish had made the list.

Of course, you can find all of the various cuisines here in the United States, some authentic, some not so much. Obviously, it depends on the cook or chef and the restaurant.

If you're a foodie, then you know that travel and food go hand in hand. One of the best ways to experience a country's culture is through its cuisine, and some countries have a reputation for offering some of the best food in the world. From street food to fine dining, these countries are home to some of the most delicious and diverse cuisines on the planet.

This list popped up in my Insta on one of my favorite pages, Explaining the Universe.

Okay, back to that drum roll.

1. Italy
2. Mexico
3. France
4. Japan
5. China
6. India
7. United States
8. Thailand
9. Spain
10. Germany

I've been to Italy, Mexico, France, Spain, and Germany, and I absolutely love that these cuisines made the list. One that didn't, which really throws me, is Greece, which, in my opinion, should absolutely be on this list. Such a delicious difference there is dining on Greek and Mediterranean food in Greece.

Now, if you're wondering what exactly American food is besides burgers and barbeque and why it even made this list, here's why.

American cuisine is often considered the best by some due to its incredible diversity. The large influx of immigrants from various cultures around the world has created a melting pot of flavors and dishes that cater to a wide range of tastes.

 

Regional specialties across the country feature unique ingredients and cooking styles, meaning you can find a variety of cuisines within American cuisine itself. This diversity makes it appealing to many people.

Thoughts?

I think this makes so much sense. Cheers to immigrants helping create incredible dining experiences in America through the generations. Even regionally, the U.S. embraces flavors from other countries while putting its own style in them.
