My aunt makes chili sometimes, at least we call it chili. No idea how it "should" be, but I love it, with some buttered bread. It contains beans, onions, minced meat, spices, and some sauce of which I don't know the recipe (I really should ask her some day). It's very simple, but delicious.

My grandma was a first generation swedish orphan, and she ate pickled herring all the time.
My dad has herring sometimes too, but sticks to tinned sardines.

I have a kind of funny story about swedish food though. I was with my bf's family in their truck (they're native canadian btw) and his mom picked up some kalles from a store we went to, and was asking if anyone wanted some on a cracker.
I was like "oh, smorgaskaviar, i didn't think you guys would be into that" but no one believed me that it was actually caviar paste.

Think about the origins of Chili: German and Austrian cowboys in Mexico and Texas make a goulash like dish using chili peppers instead of paprika, and tossing in some cumin and maybe oregano in lieu of caraway seeds and maybe marjoram. The Mexican girls they marry love beans, and they have to watch in horror as their grandchildren start adding beans to the dish. A few holdouts remember grandpa's injunction against beans, but the Mexican side of the family thinks he was nuts.

There's every reason to think the original chili was like a spicy version of Pörkölt.

Stews are common in the United States, depending on where you are.

Down in Florida, there probably aren't many stews or people making stews. You might find a seafood stew. Winter time in the northern states, I would venture to guess there are a lot of stews made.

My mom makes a dish she calls Goulash, but it's nothing like the authentic Czech version. It's more of an Italian-American tomato based noodle and beef stew. Me and all the extended family love it, although a shittier version is often served in school cafeterias which many other Americans here might be familiar with and hate (justifiably so). Went to the Czech Republic and had real goulash, fucking delicious.

Non-plebs in America eat lamb all of the time.

It's true what you say about duck.

>>5986824
Fuck you, duck is one of the best things you'll ever eat if prepared correctly.

Get a quality breast from your specialty grocer. Score the skin or prick it with a fork. Start the duck skin side-down in a cold pan, like bacon, so it doesn't curl. Sear it in both sides until medium rare.

Any more than that and it loses its character.

Eat that thing and witness the most underrated meat in America.

Also, duck confit is delicious, look it up.

I don't think that matters because
• Anon spoke generally, encompassing Americans of all available ethnic backgrounds
• German Americans outnumber Italian Americans three to one
• Most of America is landlocked and those landlocked areas have very, very few Italian Americans

Those landlocked areas, even ones with Italian Americans, certainly don't eat fish a whole bunch. Even in the same state, the areas farthest from the coast will not eat much fish. I can guarantee that home consumption of fish is about a kajillion times more common amongst Italian Americans in, say, Philadelphia or New York City than in Pittsburgh or Buffalo, to give two examples of states where this would be true.
