Okay this is totally not what you’re asking but I have to share a funny story. (To answer your actual question, can’t think of anything but I don’t live in NY or Chicago so…)
My family visited Scotland when my daughter was about 6, and there was one night we got to a hotel and just needed some food, and not a lot of places near us were open. But there was a pizza place, which would satisfy the kids. My daughter chose the “American” pizza, which had chicken, barbecue sauce, and yellow corn on it. (Yes, I’m serious.) She has been asking for that pizza for years since then. WTF?
Yeah. Love sweetcorn on my pizza.
I mean, you do you! My daughter agrees with you in matters of taste. I did think it was awfully funny what the Scots thought of as “American.”
they dont really think of it as american, they just dont really care. like american pizza in ireland is almost always "hot" pepperoni and jalepenos, mixed peppers and like a shake of some kind of pepper flakes.
also in ireland they have "american wine gums" which as you know isnt a thing, theyre these really chewey gummy things live ive never seen
