As the culteral melting pot of the world, I don't think any particular food is 100% American. But my guess would have to be Hot Dogs & Hamburgers. Maybe that's why they're so popular on July 4th!

Twinkies. American "cheese."


OooH! Peanut-butter! Now there's one to be proud of



for some odd reason, while the word "Ganya" was still just a thought-dropping in my head, I thought it'd only be four letters. But apparently it's five. yep.

I know this is a long dead thread, but I'd like to point out that cajun food is American. Jumbo comes from America

The only thing I can think of is peanut butter and "jelly" sandwiches.

Everything else has been done before

(no idea what a Jumbo is. Only thing I can think of is "jumbo dog"... but maybe not)

Yeah, I think I did mean Gumbo. I've never tried Cajun food because I'm not a fan of hot food, but I do know that it was invented in America
