The world's 6 best foods
1. Massaman curry, Thailand
Emphatically the king of curry, and perhaps the king of all foods. Spicy, coconutty, sweet and savory. Even the package sauce you purchase from the supermarket can make the drunkest of cooks look like a Michelin potential. Fortunately, someone devised rice with which diners can mop up the last drizzles of sauce. "The Land of Smiles" isn't only a marketing catch-line. It's a result of being born in a land in which the planet's most tasty food is offered on nearly every street corner.
2. Neapolitan pizza, Italy
Spare us the lumpy chain monstrosities and"everything-on-it" brakes of greed. The best pizza was and still is the easy Neapolitan, an invention now shielded by its own trade association that insists on sea salt, high-grade wheat flour, the usage of only 3 types of fresh tomato, hand-rolled dough and the strict use of a wood-fired oven, among other superior stipulations. With only a few ingredients -- dough, tomato, olive oil, salt, and basil (the marinara pizza doesn't even contain cheese) -- the Neapolitans generated a food that couple makes properly, but everyone enjoys thoroughly.
3. Chocolate, Mexico
The Mayans drank it, Lasse Hallström made a picture about it along with the rest of us get over the guilt of eating an excessive amount of it by eating more of it. The story of the humble cacao bean is a bona fide out-of-the-jungle, into-civilization tale of culinary wonder. Without this bitter-sweet confection, Valentine's Day is going to be flowers and cards, Easter would turn back into another dull religious event.
4. Sushi, Japan
When Japan wants to construct something right, it assembles it really right. Brand giants such as Toyota, Nintendo, Sony, Nikon, and Yamaha may have been made by people fueled by nothing more complicated than fish and rice, but it is how rice and a fish is put together that makes this an international first-date favored. The Japanese don't live forever for no reason -- they would like to keep eating this material.
5. China, Peking duck
The maltose-syrup glaze coating the skin is the key. Slow roasted in an oven, the syrup-coated skin is so great that authentic eateries will serve more skin than beef, and bring it with pancakes, onions, and hoisin or sweet bean sauce. Other than flying or floating, this is the only way you desire your duck.
6. Hamburger, Germany
When something tastes so great that people spend $20 billion annually in a single restaurant chain devoted to it, you realize it is to fit into this list. McDonald's might not offer you the best hamburger, but that's the point -- it doesn't have to. The bread-meat-salad combination is indeed good that nations have ravaged their eco-systems only to produce more cows.
