Land stolen from the Native Americans in almost all cases. (That’s different from the other items in this list, which were produced or invented or traded.)
I would argue that apple pie was “stolen” since they have a whole phrase “as american as apple pie” when it isn’t even american. It wasn’t traded. It likely came with the brits et al, that colonised america. And since has become a staple of american culture.
You’d be wrong. Apple and other fruit tarts may have been present in Europe, but a significant amount of American deserts originated with the Pennsylvania Deuch.
This comic is actually just bait though as is conflates “learned from” with “stolen” over and over again. Bigots dont have a problem with taking things they like from other cultures over centuries. They dont like people they see as different from them right now.
I mean, from what i can see by googling it, it does seem like it originaled in england and was brought over to america. The apple trees in america were crab apple trees and were useless for making apple pie. The apple trees you use were brought over and domesticated before baring fruit that could be used in the dish.
Also, when i say stolen, i am talking about using a dish that didn’t originate in the USA to define the USA. But to mean that this pie is culturally american and patriotic. Except ironically it actually just proves how american culture is born of many many different cultures that came before it, and being proud to be american whilst simultaneously wanting anyone who isnt white to get out of the country is so idiotic and backwards.

as for chips & salsa, tex-mex food is kind of an interesting case.
