The USA. I'm Cajun, but I've moved several times with my family, and we've settled in Atlanta, Georgia.
We eat a lot of seafood, especially shrimp and various fishes. Most of it artery-cloggin' deep fried, unfortunately. Well, health effects aside, it all tastes amazing and is usually served bland in restaurants, allowing you to put as much hot sauce or red pepper flakes as you wish. A popular dish is the Po' Boy. It's basically a sub sandwich, only with a bunch of fried seafood (either shrimp, crawfish, or catfish usually), lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and a little bit of mayonnaise. If you want every condiment the restaurant offers, you order it "dressed." There's also chicken fricassee, which is basically boiled chicken in a roux (say it like kangaroo) served over rice. And then there's macque choux, which is sautéed corn and mixed veggies. Jambalaya, which is rice, chicken, celery, green bell pepper, and onions, along with whatever else you want to put in it. Seriously, as long as it has those first few things you can put tofu and barbeque sauce and could still call it jambalaya. And how could I forget Gumbo! The only one I ever get to eat unless I'm at my grandparents' house in rural Louisiana. It's a soup, thickened with a roux and (after it's on the table) dried and crushed sassafras leaves, with chicken, okra, misc. vegetables, tasso (explanation on the roux link), and sometimes shrimp and crawfish, served over a little bit of rice. It almost has the consistency of gravy, and is usually very spicy if it's prepared by someone who's from louisiana. Those are some of the most well known recipes from southern Louisiana. And I don't have a Cajun accent. It's kind of cool though, it sounds nothing like a southern accent and more like a slight Brooklyn accent.

I'm from America so you know that I eat burgers and hot dogs. Although I am part Cherokee, I don't eat the foods of the Cherokee. I'm also black, so of course I eat fried chicken. The only food that America created on it's own is fast food and that isn't even healthy.
