I pick G

Leave it to a westerner to split up Africa arbitrarily again.
obviously you aren't a white westerner, otherwise you'll understand the feeling of waking up in the morning and wanting to arbitrarily split a continent.
it's like beavers with dams
True, but in this scheme Africa has the absolute best localized selection of any other region on the map
Are New Zealanders considered westerners?
No idea, but they don't exist again it seems
True, but OP I think is from New Zealand. If so, makes it even funnier if they posted a map without New Zealand.
That does make it funnier, they even posted it in the community for maps without NZ.
I didn't even realize what the community was lol, this is making more sense.

How do you know this was made by a Westerner?
A because I live there and that's too far to travel elsewhere for breakfast.
Plus, it has pretty much every cuisine on the map.
French, Cajun, Islander (think Jamaican jerk, etc), eastern European (pierogis, etc), varieties of Asian, etc.
And pretty much all available made by people from those places.
I don't understand the rules of the question, because in Canada, we have authentic everything from expats from everywhere so if that counts, I choose A.
If you mean traditional cuisines from the region, I'm going D. Ethiopian cuisine and coffee, various middle eastern, indian, chinese, mongolian, japanese, korean and thai? Yum.
Exactly, although losing Mexican/South American would be soul crushing :(
My thoughts exactly! Are you me?
G. Why, yes, I'll eat from Ocean.
Plus Cameroon and Nigeria. Its solid cuisine.
I wonder what sailors eat these days. Id guess probably just whatever sort of food exists where they come from, but maybe skewed towards things that keep well for awhile?

D. All I need is Japan and China. They have the best food on the planet.
you also get indian and middle east.
overall best choice
France & Italy respectfully disagree.
France eats snails.
Italy got all their best ideas from Asia.
Delicious Snails bathing in marvelous garlic parsley butter sauce ๐
Also missing Tasmania too. Such a good map.
And, Madagascar? There is a great book about Madagascar.
And a pretty good couple of movies called Madagascar

You don't say?
Yes, that's where we are.
Call me rusty old fashioned, but I'll do just fine with that triangle that includes Morocco, Northern Italy, Spain (Basque, Catalan, etc), France and Portugal.
I'll stick with A, it's what I'm used to. NZ might have issues though.
The best food I've ever tasted was in C, plus that's where I grew up, so I picked C.
Also, I've eaten in G before. It was pretty good.
C means:
- all Slavic food north to south
- just to continue with Balkan stuff
- ~~France/Belgium~~ ahh, this is sad
- Italy
- Greece
- Some part of Middle-eastern food
I will miss Chinese and Japanese, but I'll be more than ok
Yep, plus Turkey, big W.
And a little bit of German, at least Bavarian. Which is honestly overlooked but great
Czech republic is there, with a good overlap with German cousine
I'm northern Norwegian, so I'm happy as long as I get to eat fish and sheep that have gone through unspeakable things. Plus I've lived in both Poland and Czechia and they have some pretty nice cuisine there as well.
A, for sure. You can get pretty much anything, but most importantly it includes New Orleans and Mexico.
One sector has India, China, Western Asia, the Middle East, a chunk of North Africa, and Russia? A bit unfair, no?
Oh wait. H has potatoes. Shit. That is a tough choice.
I pick the blue area
No seafood for you.
I would have to pick A for Cajun/Creole, Mexican & Carribean cuisines. It would suck losing asian cuisine, but I can't live without my Jambalaya & etouffee.
I'm going with D. Australia has a good variety of cuisines, but I also get to eat foods from the Malaysian Archipelego and part of Africa.
G lock in no regrets.
Hope you like Nigerian food
And sea food!
you also get some Antarctic colonies, although I'm not sure what they eat
C. I'd miss Mexican food but Greek is my favorite and getting Italian food along with seems like a good combo. Unless it isn't just "traditional" foods and you can get everything by just including a country with lots of immigrant groups. (Though, in the latter case, I'd imagine all or most of the slices have at least some people making any given cuisine style given that migration still exists in even not particularly immigrant heavy places.)
The best would pb be D and H.
But I pick C.
E all I need is new Zealand food. We have already taken every other food and fixed it for the new Zealand pallette. Which is to either deep fry it or add more salt.
Wait fuck nz isnt even on the map. They can't keep getting away with this!!
