    Yeah, this just isn’t the case, there’s a metric fuckload of experimenting going on, most people just aren’t willing to try any of it.

      Seriously. Not even experimenting, but just looking at other cultures’ cuisines as a start. In the states we barely even pickle things that aren’t cucumbers. The seafood situation in the middle of the country is nothing compared to the coasts, and what’s acceptable on the coasts is a fraction of what gets eaten in Iceland or Japan.

      People generally don’t want to expand their palates. Anyone who wants to try new things can look to countless dishes around the world they’ve never even heard of.
