      If imported ingredients arent valid that quite quickly invalidates almost all traditional foods

          Yeah Bahn Mi isn’t really Vietnamese since it uses French baguette, Tacos aren’t Mexican since they use European meats and cheeses not available to Native Americans, Thai chilie is from North America, etc. Fuck outta here.
