You're magnanimous. I was hoping God would smite them where they stand, but your way gives them a chance to repent before nightfall.

What a guy

Basically a drive from the 20 to the opponent's 42. Edge of field goal range so it ain't a bad deal overall.

You people have clearly never had real Mexican food.


from what part of Mexico? There's only like 20 different "real" Mexican food styles

I've eaten in Mexico. Tex-Mex in Texas is better.

I've eaten in China. Chinese-American food is 1000x better

Woah now pump the breaks.

Japanese - The food in Japan is incredible and better than anything I've found in the states for Japanese food.

Italian - You have to know how to order in Italy, but yeah it's generally better here.

Greek - This one is a toss up. I had really bad greek food in Greece and I had some amazing food there. It's pretty similar to what you find here tbh.

Who doesn't like ramen, sushi, and delicious cooked meats? Japanese food is some of the best cuisine.

I'm not as big a fan of fish broths and tentacles.

I agree 100% with your take on Italian and Greek. Some of the best but it's hit or miss.

I've never been to any part of Africa or South America. Headed to Columbia next month and I can't wait

I only mentioned those three because I've been to and/or lived in those locales.

I'll admit that my stay in Japan was the shortest and my portfolio of foods tried is rather thin, so I'll cede that point.

Italian, I'll admit my bias--I prefer larger helpings of spices and cheese than they generally utilize. I will say their bread is better, though.

Greece is the place I lived. Spanakopita and tiropita are better over there by several orders of magnitude. They miss the mark when it comes to their meat dishes compared to here, I think.

This is not true. Even Mexicans will tell you Tex-Mex is better than Mexican fare.


Actually Tex-Mex is better than Mexican food.

In Texas you can drink the water, and the food is only spiced to add to the flavor, Not because the meat is spoiled.

Haven't done Columbia yet, but Lima and Cuzco had some great food. Peru knows how to cook.

I've been to Santiago and Buenos Aires, but they were weekend trips so I didn't get a full feel for what they had. Santiago was awesome. We randomly found a food festival. Buenos Aires was also pretty good. Empanadas pretty much every meal. And a big steak.
