Almost all the most popular American foods are white people inventions. Pizza was created by Italians and altered by white Americans in various places. Hamburgers are not much different than sandwiches but are named after Hamburg, Germany. Hot dogs are all American, but I would recommend getting good ones and not ones made out of stuff that should be thrown in the trash. Cooking chicken in oil is about as much of an invention as smashing peanuts to make peanut butter. It doesn't take a creative genius.
There are many foreign foods we have taken and made into our own creations. One example is putting cheese on tacos is not a Mexican thing. Also, real Chinese food and the Americanized stuff are two different things at this point. I've tried some real Chinese food, and honestly, the Americanized stuff is better. One thing they do is called a hot pot. It is a sort of boiler on the dining table where meat and veggies are cooked and taken or served straight from the pot. I got to experience one right here in America. We were provided with sauces to put on the food, and the meat wasn't the sugar-laden stuff you find at Chinese buffets.
