American Food Culture

Its interesting to me that American Cuisine is almost undefinable. It is multi cultural and every American seems to have a different definition in what it is. Some believe it is the cuisine of our roots. Some believes it is the power of American brands for example the food of KFC, McDonald's and Coca-Cola.

To me American Cuisine truly doesn't have a definition it is whatever you make it. With our power of diversity in this country we can have the best of our worlds.

In other countries our food culture comes down to a simple brand. I am sure that the golden arch is a symbol of America in other countries. The question is what kind of symbol does that send to us Americans. Is it good or not? Is it a positive effect on other nations or negative?

I think for our culture it is positive the brand power we have has spread worldwide and that shows cultural strength. However it could be a negative symbol of America since are powerful corporations.
