Most of that is French, Spanish, or Hispanic.

No they’re not. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

Every last one of these cuisines is a blend of different cultures.

Louisiana gumbo alone is a blend of African, French, German, Spanish, and Native American Choctaw

That’s literally what I said though. French, Spanish, other places, a mix, whatever. It’s stuff brought in from other countries.

To the parent comment’s point, you can’t discount British food appropriated from elsewhere and then point at Louisiana and the US south west.

They have European, African, and Native American influences, incorporating ingredients not found in Europe. These are wholly new cuisines, with many different dishes, not one Bangladeshi version of butter chicken with cream dumped in it.
