if it's not Polish or German it's all foreign food to me and I like it all. I mean, I'll eat almost anything as long as it doesn't involve a milk product. I'm non-dairy so maybe Korean would be my choice but I really love Polish and most German food as well. All three cultures do a lot with fermented food which I simply crave and adore. Korean food is IMO one of the cuisines that is vastly underrated in the US as well as globally. Korean culture is very food oriented and I feel that Western and Eastern society under-rates it unfairly.
The issue I have with most Americanized foods is the sweetness level. German and Korean food isn't so disgustingly sweet. Korean food is just art on a plate when you take texture and flavor together but being raised German...I like that whole deeply flavorful pot of food, the home-made sauerkraut and sausage it doesn't have the same phenomenal range in texture as Korean but that's my comfort food.
That said if anyone wants to cook me a Korean meal I will show up. I will be appreciative and eat whatever is served happily. Doesn't matter what it is made of. I love burdock, heart meat, whole fish including the eyes- whatever. I'm not your average Polish/ German girl,
Mexican, but it's probably really more Tex-Mex. I used to be a big fan of Italian, but after I had weight loss surgery, I feel like my taste buds changed and pasta lost its appeal.
