There’s a dick hole in the pie too, but we’ll ignore that for now, don’t tell your mother.
I think there’s something to be said about a nation that has no tangible cultural identity, but rather had been left to it’s own devices to try to come up with one on the spot. Everything borrowed or recycled. Even Chicago deep dish pizza.
I don’t see the problem with that. The US is a rather young nationality/culture, and every culture borrows stuff. Also, what’s wrong with a very diverse and colorful identity?
I refuse to get into that discussion, because when you start talking about the benefits of a strong cultural identity, people start accusing you of dangerous things. Like being a weeb.
I try to really be conscious of what foods and ingredients I have in stock, and use as much up as I can before I shop. It helps me to be frugal and less wasteful. It also sort-of ends up ensuring I eat healthy portions as a result of the mindfulness. But this morning I find myself down to a muffin and one sandwich worth of fixings.
Always keep a bag of potatoes in the pantry. They keep incredibly well and you probably won’t be tempted by them too much, but when you’ve got nothing else you can bake one or slice up some home fries. Go with red, russets are too starchy.
What is the ‘American psyche’ and how does one diagnose a construct of national mental health?
It’s kind of like American pie. On the surface it’s just a pie, but when you bite in, there’s something undeniably American about the flavor.
So national psyche is a pie, and the american psyche pie is diseased…
Still not getting it but I like your flair so please explain more.

I would argue that’s what culture is. How locals take what exists and make it their own. Not sure what op is on about.
I’d define a national culture as a deeply rooted, shared identity. To you, what is American culture? Just spit ball it, like one of them word bubbles.

What has weeaboo culture to do with this?? I don’t understand.
Are you just really hungry right now? Seems like you’re fixated more on food than whatever else you’re babbling about.
I am actually, it’s grocery day.

Long story short, I do have food on my mind.
Always keep a bag of potatoes in the pantry. They keep incredibly well and you probably won’t be tempted by them too much, but when you’ve got nothing else you can bake one or slice up some home fries. Go with red, russets are too starchy.
God, but, I do have a poutine problem. Potatoes leads to cheese curds. Curds lead to gravy. Malt vinegar!
Hmmm… well maybe a big bag of grits then. Also keeps well and isn’t too tempting but good in a pinch.
