4, Passion for national foods

I just saw this article on bbc.com: Pho, the humble food that caused outage

Another article posted earlier talked about the fight for Kim Chi.

I love it when people are passionate about their national foods and culture. However, I like to think about humanity as a whole, and that in our history, different cultures may cross paths and influence each other. Even when different nations develop their unique cultures, food, or technologies independently, and ended up being similar, it is something to celebrate.
