American Food?

The discussion on American identity in class last week made me realize something rather strange. Not only can Americans identify themselves as a mixture of races; American food can be labeled as a "mixed race" or a fusion of two cultures. I completed a list of culturally labeled food items.

1.  Swedish Fish - Swedish name, but what is Swedish about these aquatic red candies? 

2. English muffin- Do the British enjoy these with tea?

3. Italian Ice- This is made in America and Italy. Do the Italians just call this semi-ice cream treat ice?

4. Chinese Food- I feel as if the Chinese food in America taste nothing like the food made in China. 

Hungry (both a country and an adjective),
