Food culture has evolved over the years in many different countries. Immigrants who have came into our country have brought in many aspects of their own culture to create the melting pot we have today in America. The food culture they have brought over here has slowly evolved and incorporated American preferences into their cuisines as well as in their cooking style. However, while these ethnic foods have become more acquired to American tastes, a variety of ethnic foods have become part of American culture. These ethnic foods from all over the world, from the Caribbean to the Mediterranean to the Southern and Eastern Asian lands, have contributed to America’s food palate. This culture has become a melting pot in both ways in that America has embraced ethnic foods and how ethnic foods evolved within American tastes.
