What culture has the worst cuisine?

The Mi'kmaq are blatantly abusing their harvester licenses in NS. Whereas others have to fish in season, in designated areas and throw back lobsters outside of a specified range, the Mi'kmaq go in and decimate breeding grounds by ignoring literally every rule. Harvester licenses are meant for community subsistence, but these guys are running commercial operations.
Nah. That is propaganda put out by massive commercial fisheries who are salty they aren't allowed to fish in off season but the Mi'kmaq are, and using a 'but muh enviorment' to convince faggot Canadians that "the damn dirty injuns are at it again."
 
It's fiber. Many Americans eat very little of it. Handful of beans causes their digestive system to freak out.
We eat beans several times a week. Beans and rice is a staple that many people cook every Monday. Usually, people cook enough where they can freeze some to thaw out and eat later in the week.

Mexican food is just so sickly rich. Everything is covered in cheese and sweet sauce. I see why child obesity is so high there.

That and a proper surstromming sandwich.
It's not bad. It is a flatbread with very mild flavors(flatbread with potato, sour cream, spring onion...) for a reason. The fish itself is very tsundere but it's mainly just salty and it doesn't taste stinky. The burps are the worst thing though.

Rakfisk from norway though, it's a similar thing in that it is fermented fish that smells, but that one is really good in a potato flatbread roll. It's usually made from trout and when rolled up with all the good veggies and sour cream it acts like a blue cheese in a way. Hell yeah.

If we change the criteria to what culture has the worst cuisine nutrition wise that would be a different game, but, still, asians would be on top of the list.
Their food sometimes is nothing but empty udugestible fiber, plus the amount of soy they consume.
 
The Middle East probably has the worst desserts out of any culture I’ve tasted from to date. I do not for the life of me understand what they see in baklava but I have tried and utterly failed to enjoy it about half a dozen times before giving up and coming to the conclusion that I don’t like it despite being served everywhere from Morocco to Pakistan.

Everything else is either weirdly savory and full of nuts or just plain sticky. Arabs should just admit that the West perfected desserts centuries ago.
You have not had East Asian desserts. Now, their "western-style" baked goods? Holy shit they can knock that out of the park... But stuff that's local based? I've tried red bean stuff over and over, but all I get is refried beans that taste like Domino sugar instead of salty and savory. My brain just flat out rejects it everytime.

Then there was the time in Malaysia when I got this shaved ice thing, and the syrups used were pretty good, but everything else? What the fuck. Pretty sure one thing was red beans in syrup, but there were also these sweet but also tasteless red and blue gummy bits in another syrup, these oval white things that also were in syrup that I'm still not sure what they were, some kind of fruit? And these little wiggly green strips (which were mostly tasteless) that literally reminded me of the crocod tongues from the "James and the Giant Peach" movie. And apparently all these toppings were popular, because I encountered them again at a self-serve ice cream bar, y'know the sort of thing in the states where there's hot fudge, caramel, sprinkles, etc.

Scandinavian "cuisine" is 95% fish, potatoes, and leeks.
Makes sense when you're on low arability land.

In your opinion, what's the best the Scandis have to offer that isn't seafood? The only thing I'm aware of that isn't fish or meatballs is reindeer sausage.
