Except for Thanksgiving turkey, it's hard to find a typical "American" food. The United States is a land of immigrants. So Americans eat food from many different countries. When people move to America, they bring their cooking styles with them. That's why you can find almost every kind of ethnic food in America. In some cases, Americans have adopted foods from other countries as favorites. Americans love Italian pizza, Mexican tacos and Chinese egg rolls. But the American version doesn't taste quite like the original. As with any large country, the U.S.A. has several distinct regions. Each region boasts its own special style of food. Visit the South and enjoy country-style cooking.
