Land of the free, home of the brave — the United States of America is the epicenter of different cultures and cuisines. With this mixing, American food may be some of the tastiest, yet most calorie-dense food you can have. Pioneers of modern fast food, American dishes are known in every corner of the world. Ate at a Mcdonald's? Then you ate the hamburgers that the Americans perfected in their kitchens and shipped around the world for us to enjoy. While we know their most famous dishes, there is a lot more to discover about American foods.
Memed and laughed at, food in America is sometimes held as the fattiest food (or is it just jealousy?) While this might be true, at least the FDA has banned artificial trans fats! Either way, why travel around the world when you can try a huge variety of the best American dishes in eateries spawned across the country? By using uniquely American cleverness that the nation is blessed with, foods were combined, the best combos were found, and they spread around the world like wildfire. Do you call that bread and sausage combo of yours a sandwich? Try the American beef hamburger, friend, the best bread and meat combo in the world. Some dishes were even blessed with the title of American national dish, even though the whole world is eating them. If there are national dishes in your nation, it’s likely there are famous American dishes that did it better.
To get those veins pumping with flavors and calories that can only come from the food of the free and brave, Bored Panda took a look into the popular community of Ask Reddit to create a list of the best American foods, according to the opinions of the Reddit users.

"Gumbo. I usually cook a big pot, portion it and freeze it. So good when it's re-heated, it doesn't even have to be hot."

"When I try a new place, if they have a Reuben, I’ll try that first, because if they can do that well, everything else on the menu is probably pretty good."
