Underrated: Clam chowder.
Overrated: Lobster.

Lobster costs like 25 dollars for very little meat and it's half the time not even that good."

Oh wait it's cuisine I just saw the template of the person above and I yoinked that.
I think French cuisine is overrated. I think Chinese cuisine is underrated. Fight me.

I mean Sichuanese food (Sichuan is a province in China u prob already know this) doesn't use dogs I'm pretty sure. And it packs a punch and it's very good. So that's what I would I would probably specify but Sichuan probably is one of the more overrated Chinese cuisines but ehh I like it.

Ok interesting. Ngl I do like some Chinese stuff but most are disgusting to my taste

IMO the only good thing from Mcdonalds is the apple pie. Fight me. Mcflurry is also overrated. Just get icecream, milk, and some oreos from the local supermarket and make a milkshake.
I do agree that Italian is overrated though.

I will have the hottest take in the world here. Mcdonalds fries aren't that good. They're over seasoned. I want everyone who thinks im wrong to take me on. Idgaf if ur obese or skinny as a stick. Fucking take me on but you know ur wrong. Because that shit has a metric fuckload of salt on it. And half the time it's soggy af. And they've figured out hacks for the unsalted fries.

Fuck. I actually can't argue with this. I prefer Fried Rice though. Fried rice poggers bc u just use last days rice and u have da spicy korean shit and prob some eggs and prob some good meat. Then you have the perfect food. The only time this goes ehh is when ur mom adds like 50 grains into the rice. Like why. :(. I have seen grains I've never heard of.

Overrated: Sushi, it is good, but I kinda think too many people think its like the best thing in the world.
I think Mediterranean food tastes like shit, but not sure if its overrated.

Here is another hot take. I think Sushi tastes like shit. Why would u want wet seaweed because it's been right next to rice. It makes my mind boggle. Seaweed should always be nice and cranchy and salty. And no I don't get those seaweed snacks things. Those are disgusting. I personally Just enjoy putting rice on top and putting some spicy beef on top and eating it quickly so that the seaweed doesn't go soggy. Fight me.

Overrated: Ramen; anime overhypes how good ramen really is. It's a good noodle dish definitely, but there are far better versions from similar east asian culinary.

Underrated: Pho maybe or Chinese mapo tofu/dougan; Pho is really good noodle dish but tedious as crap because of how the soup is made. As for Chinese tofu and dougan, I find it weird that it isn't as popular as it should be considering how simple it is yet flavors that never fail to surprise me.

Edit: I also think that Bubble Tea is incredibly overrated. It's a great drink originating from my home country, but I think westeners inflate how great this drink really tastes. Sure there are variations to it, but it really isn't anything spectacular in my honest opinion.

Underrated: Mexican Food. Literally god tier and yet some people's only experience of it has been Taco Bell/Chipotle.
Overrated: Pizza. So many places fuck it up and most pizza is just too greasy for no reason.

You know Vietnamese cusine derives from Chinese influence right? You are basically insulting your own lineage with that sort of statement.

As for factual correctness, no people do not normally eat dogs; it's a 1/10 chance you find someone who eats dogs. Homeless people on the street resort to eating dogs and slaughtering them because that is all there is to eat. Culturally, it is very uncommon to find this sort of habit of eating dogs.

I might be of taiwanese descent, but your statement is incorrect on many levels.

I do know that, a lot of VN cuisine originates from CN, I'm not denying it. From my personal experience however, I've seen ppl eating dogs and to me it's common. It's normal. No joke

pretty common racist take, even if you don't think you're a racist you're subconsciously racist. grew up in a racist family I guess? first, Chinese food certainly isn't all dogs but is incredibly varied and there are so many different foods based on different provinces in China. also don't you realise dogs are animals just like cows, pigs and chickens which we westerners slaughter just the same? there is nothing special about dogs except the emotional bond.

and yes I love Chinese food

Ok then. I'm sorry. I legit didn't mean it. I just said I find dog disgusting, that's all.
