Some of our best foods have come from poor countries. Bourcht, gumbo, jambalaya, Sunday gravy, Coqe au vin. All things made with the dregs of food poor people had. Cooked long and seasoned hevealy. Red Beans and rice, tacos, pupusasas. All came from people that were trying to make more of what they had.geeme said:Haiti - The world's poorest country. A gov't so corrupt that, when the most recent big earthquake hit, no one would give aid money to the government, but used NGO's (non-governmental organizations) to provide aid. Many people who live there are so poor they actually eat mud cakes just to have something in their bellies. And yet, yes, there are Haitian foods that are phenomenal. Depending upon your knowledge of Haiti, its people and your perspective, I can see arguments on both sides of picking Haitian food (or not) - what are yours?
