We fought with the Chinese at the time of the Boxer Rebellion; so long to Chinese food.

Then there were the wars with the North Koreans and the North Vietnamese.

We warred with the Brits. Well no big loss on Brit food. ;o)
But, at the time India was part of the British Empire, so no more Indian Food.

We sent in the Marines to subdue several Caribbean nations; so much for Caribbean styled foods.

We arranged the overthrow of the Hawaiian Monarchy so that Hawaii could become a state. No more Luaus folks.

We mixed it up with France in the French and Indian War.

We were in conflict with the Muslim Ottoman Empire (Turkey dominated) from the time of the Barbary Pirates to WWII, so no ethnic food from Ottoman countries.

We invaded Cuba; no Cuban food. (I'm going to miss that one.)

Of course we warred with Native American Tribes, so none of their food. (I have eaten Buffalo.)

When you get down to it, we warred with each other from 1861 to 1865, so that pretty well leaves us with nothing to eat.

Perhaps this whole thing has gotten out of hand.

Geez, Carl. Do we have to give our Dodge back to Canada?
