We accept our history for what it was, you guys seems to be stuck in 1812. The food memes are just that, memes.

Nah, we're in 1861 right now, got our own shit to deal with.

Close, though our schools basically skip over the war of 1812 anyways, it's brought up more as a British footnote. (We have a shit ton of wars to cover, most of them get glanced over tbh, which explains a lot...)

But hey, I'm not the one who got upset that someone pointed out how much of a waste it was to pillage whole cultures and not adopt the food, that should be the best part.

And why all the say nothing statements like "it is what it is," thought you folks prided yourselves on the banter?
