Americans are not averse to eating delicious food, says the author "Hello America!" on "Yandex.Zen"... But it is quite possible that it tastes delicious only to them.
Like every nation, Americans have their own eating habits. Some of them, immigrants from post-Soviet countries, cannot “understand”.
Chocolate covered bacon
Immigrants often do not understand at first glance ridiculous combinations of things that, in their opinion, simply cannot be combined. Americans pour fried eggs with jam, eat meatballs with sweet sauce, chicken with honey.
But most of the question arises when Americans dip flavorful, fried bacon in chocolate and then call it a "masterpiece."
Fancy coffee
Our people are very fond of coffee. We drink it at home and at work, sometimes several times a day. But Americans don't like plain coffee. They drink it, but only with a variety of flavors such as mint, caramel, ginger or pumpkin, whipped cream, and other ingredients.

Celery with peanut butter
Celery is considered another “tasty treat”, which is greased with peanut butter and sprinkled with raisins. By the way, in recent years, Russians have also begun to frequently buy celery stalks and consume them raw. But it would never occur to them to supplement celery with peanut butter.
Fried Marshmallow Marshmallows
American marshmallows are rarely consumed in the form in which they are sold. US residents prefer to roast them over a fire and then eat them. Sometimes they put the marshmallow between the cookies and heat it up. It turns out such a mini-cake.
Deep fried
Americans deep-fry absolutely anything that can be fried! And that is not too. For example, breaded pickles or Oreo cookies.
Frito Pie
Something similar is being sold in some Russian cinemas. These are Fritos chips with melted cheese on top.

Root Beer Floats
This is a delicious American dessert. That is, ice cream in soda. But soda is not simple, but similar to our kvass!
Spam
This is a stew, but not simple, but rather unusual and strange in taste.
Fruit ice
Immigrants will never understand why there is ordinary ice covered with colored syrup.
Potato skins
And Americans also love potato skins. Also, by the way, deep-fried. In general, potatoes are not eaten very often in America. And if they cook it themselves, it is often in a uniform.
