20 years in Louisiana I wanted Manigot. I compromised, I ate Cajun food instead

You can find competent Italian food outside of Italy or areas with a ton of those immigrants.
Try finding competent Cajun food outside of Louisiana.
I always get a kick out of this take. I see it a lot here. It's as if no one on the planet is capable of reproducing food outside of Italy or Louisiana. Just because Bob from Denver made a jambalaya, it can't be good or if Pedro in Mexico City made veal piccata it is trash.
It's insane.

I’m going off people in other parts of the country having no fricking clue what “Cajun” cooking is.
They think it means “burnt”, not “spiced properly.”

Forget about the food. Italians are just the worst. Such drama queens.
And Fascists.

Sure, it can be good. But 99/100 times it sucks.

There's no special mystical technique to cooking "Cajun" food. The problem is, most of what people try to do with it outside of Louisiana is turn it into some sort of goofy caricature and focus on that first over the actual food being prepared and served.

I had some excellent comfort food from a Cajun themed food truck in Salt Lake City, UT of all places. Lady and her husband were located there from LA by the military. Salt Lake also had a great southern inspired BBQ place.
My coworker from Lafayette claims this place in Bham has the best shrimp poboy he's ever had. I haven't been there yet.
My brother said all the Chinese food in China was f'ing awful when he spent two weeks there.
Seems authentic Chinese food sucks...Posted on 8/15/22 at 4:06 pm to Epic Cajun

Try convincing a person from the northeast that Louisiana Italian food doesn’t suck 99/100 times.
Heck it probably does.

People in Louisiana don't have many objective facts about the state to be proud of so we rely on subjective assessments about having "better" food.
