I am totally for calling superhero films Hamburger Shonen

Although hamburgers and hot dogs are from Hamburg and ~~Frankfort~~ Frankfurt, respectively.

PBJs and apple pie are pretty American.

It's Frankfurt ackchyually. From the German word "Furt" which is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_(crossing)

Apple pies are found wherever apples and pies are traditional foods

Europe had mastered the pastry when the US was just getting started, so they had strudel and hand tarts and stuff. Brits made cobblers, brought to the US. Brown Betty was invented here.

We could call them gridiron wuxia movies (such as Star Wars ) since gridiron football is a weird American thing.

They were actually both invented in the USA. Germany had similar dishes (e.g. whatever meat or fish available in a bread roll), but they aren't quite the same. Seems like it's a bit of a Döner / Kebab story.

Peanut Butter and Jam/Jelly sandwiches are definitely a US thing. So weird.
