Thanks for the link! The regular trout ("Forelle") I know is of European descent (hence Schubert's Forellenquintett) so I assumed you referred to the European one - which was indeed introduced in other parts of the world.

The Colombian side of the family hates root beer. They said it tastes like toothpaste. I understand there have been root beer flavored toothpastes. I've never seen them. But they have mint in toothpastes yet mint is pretty much a food staple all over the place. Some have come around when given floats on extremely hot days.

Other things that were mentioned like sweet corn on the cob, chocolate chips cookies, pumpkin and peanut butter can be found in most supermarkets and the cookies are prepared at home by many families.

As for what I'd serve people, what I miss most about the US is delis where you build a sandwich to your liking. Choose your bread, your spreads, your toppings etc.

I'm sorry, I've travelled the globe and no chocolate chip cookie sold anywhere in the world in any supermarket is anything like homemade. I wouldn't even consider them the same thing. A chips Ahoy or other packaged cookie bares very little resemblance to a homemade cookie--I would be though that there are bakeries and cafes in Europe with decent cookies, just as there are bakeries and cafes in the US with acceptable scones, strudels, and baklavas.

Before I was hired my manager used to take visitors from Asia and Europe to Bruce's Bar in Severance, CO for this 'treat'. Fortunately, I'm still as curious about them as I ever was.

What part of the US are you in? If you’re up north, you’re not going to have access to gator tail (which I highly recommend if you can get it). No matter what you serve, let them know that’s what you eat in *your* region, and the rest of the US is basically a collection of different countries as far as local food culture goes. For instance, my chili (Texas style) is majorly different from the chili my grandma used to make (she was from Michigan). They’re basically different food groups. For home cooking, there are regional styles, not American style. Make a New Yorker angry by serving him Chicago pizza. Make a Texan cry by serving him sauce on spaghetti and calling it chili. New Mexicans serve enchiladas “Christmas style” but go across the border east or west and hardly anyone knows what that means. It’s all good, and it’s all American, but just make sure your guests know it’s not what they’re going to get if they drive in any direction for a few hundred miles.

Horseshoes, of course. Can't get any more Midwestern than that. And please include a ton of old-church-lady casseroles. Like tater tot casserole, green bean casserole, etc. And things like jello/pretzel salad for dessert. Apples cored and stuffed with a mixture similar to brown betty topping and drizzled with caramel sauce then baked.
Jane Mulberry wrote:A lot of these are alien food to someone in the UK!
However, corn chips, corn on the cob, hot dogs, and hamburgers are all eaten here now. And coleslaw and BLTs. Grilled cheese sandwich is definite;ly a thing in Europe, though it's a croque monsieur if it includes ham.
