Hypothetical-- you can only choose two cuisines to eat for the rest of your life. What might they be?
(media.piefed.social)
For me it's Indian food, but then... what else? Ugh... what a question.
Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like... ffff, like tasting heaven.
I mean, I've never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it's a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)
French and Indian
Levantine and Belgian
Nothing beats a nice juicy shawarma with a waffle for desert. Ok maybe a Jet2 holiday beats it, idk.

Italian and Korean. I would count a lot of deli food in the Italian category, so you have pasta, pizza, baked dishes, and deli food. Then Korean for the BBQ and kimchi (to fix my stomach after fucking it up with all the deli food.)
American Soul Food (Ribs, Fried Chicken, Greens, Mac & Cheese, Buttermilk Biscuits, etc)
and Thai
Just gimme the (Black) American foods that no one else makes.

Probably vietnamese and mexican
Mexican and middle eastern and I'd die happy
South Asian first, probably Middle Eastern second
My problem with picking a cuisine is what that means.
It has become a gripe amongst Italian-Americans where I live that their cuisine isn't considered to be Italian because Italy has changed in a different direction from their traditional cooking. The Italian-Americans can trace some recipes and practices to those who just got off the boat, but those practices don't reflect modern Italian cuisine.
I'd probably pick Italian as one of my cuisines, but I don't know if my practices would match the current cooking practices from the nation-state of Italy.

Italian and German.
Burger
Chinese, mostly Cantonese food, because I'm just so used to it.
Japanese, because sushi, ramen, robatayaki etc...
I just realized I actually haven't tried much food lol, too picky to try new things... sort of just ate whatever I grew up with...
What does the average westerner eat btw? I feel like my life is just a small bubble.
Chinese and Australian
Australian because we don't have a culture of food beyond appropriating the rest of the world's on corner stores and such.
A very cop out answer though
Chinese and pizza maybe?
Indian and German .
My favourite main is lamb vindaloo and my favourite cake is black forest gateau. Additionally pretzels and pakoras are great snacks.
No this is the right answer. Indian is a gimme for the question (as most people rightly answered), but German cuisine is so varied it’s not all just bratwurst and potatoes. I mean it’s mostly meat and potatoes, but there’s also wurst and bread. If that doesn’t suit you, bam you’ve got pickled meat and sauerkraut. Don’t know what to eat for dinner whammo-blammo meat, cheese, and bread. Wake up the next morning, guess what same meal just need a soft boiled egg easy peasy!
German and Indian. German for the breads and the sausages, Indian for the variety and spices.
Japanese and Thai
Mexican and Italian
Mediterranean and mediterranean
Indian food. That picture looks delicious!
