Of course I can but if you really were willing to engage in good faith you wouldn’t have deleted your post as soon as you got called out. Life is too short to feed trolls from CA

Have the same feeling with animals in the road - cant imagine another human.

It was never a promlematic concept. Guess what? People of different ethnic backgrounds don't go to restaurants where their own food is made by white people, or any other group, if they can actually help it. That's just a fucking fact.
Go to any big city and if you want to know if the food is good- it means that people of the same ethnic background of the food being served will be eating there. And you know, it goes both ways. I didn't like eating "Pizza" when I was in Korea, either.
Also, for the record, if I was really close minded I would have walked out of those places as soon as I got a look at at them. But I'll give anyone a chance. The problem is, they very rarely get it right.
Get over yourself.

So have I and somehow I still know that ‘being touched by someone Japanese’ is not a requirement for authentic food, even if it wasn’t a super problematic concept in the first place.

This is bullshit. If you've actually been to that country, then you have a point of reference. I've been to Japan, thanks.

You moved from California to Maine with the expectation that it was the same because we both have coasts? You’re smart enough to figure out why you can’t get “authentic” food like back in cali. Mac Donald’s had that level of consistency, if that’s your expectation.

Maine is a very white state. That is not an inherently good or bad thing - it just is.
A quick Google search before moving cross country might have told you that, if it was going to be a problem for you, as it clearly is.
"Only Mexicans can make tacos" is racist, full stop. Enough. You're digging a hole.

I'm not offended, I just don't think this is a particularly effective way to ask this question. Anyway, good luck finding what you seek!

As someone who has lived in multiple big cities with reputations for outstanding food I assure you that you are the problem.

If you really gave a shit about food and not being a huge asshole you’d educate yourself.
