It always amazes me how incredibly pedantic people can be on Reddit. Congrats, you got me, I’m in Britain. If I had said Italian inspired would you stop being such a miserable pedantic weirdo?

Not pedantic, just flat out incorrect.

He doesn't seem to understand the difference between a recipe and the use of local ingredients on a basic level lol.

I think he'd call KFC "chinese food" if it was made in china using local ingredients.

Is not a meal made in China, by its very definition, "chinese food"?

Congratulations. You are the exact sort of person being complained about.

No. That’s quite literally not what anybody means when using the words “Chinese food” together. Language is about communicating ideas, and that’s obviously not the idea trying to be communicated when using those words.

“Well ackshuawally”.

As long as you keep making incredible looking food... I will remain a miserable pedant.
