Globalization, everything that may have been created somewhere may have roots elsewhere.

Everything has roots everywhere though.

13 foods born in America

Cheeseburgers
There are multiple claims to the origin of the cheeseburger—but one thing's for sure: The greasy, sizzling, cheesy-beef patty originated in none other than the U.S.

Buffalo wings
Hot, messy, delicious Buffalo chicken wings were first introduced in Buffalo, New York—hence the name.

Reubens
The famous hot sandwich made with corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and Russian dressing on rye bread. Two possible origins: it was created by Reuben Kulakofsky, a Jewish Lithuanian grocer in Omaha, or Arnold Reuben, a German-Jewish owner of Reuben's Delicatessen in NYC.

Pecan pie
Pecans, and pecan pie, are native to North America. There are claims that the pie started in New Orleans and Alabama—but the fact remains, the tasty dessert is all ours.

Chocolate chip cookies
Your grandma's favorite food to feed you was invented by chef Ruth Graves Wakefield in 1938 when she owned the Toll House Inn.

S'mores
The first published recipe for S'mores was in a 1927 Girls Scouts book. Credit for the invention of the campfire treat is given to Loretta Scott Crew, who is said to have made them for the Girl Scouts.

Lobster roll
Do you prefer yours Maine style with mayo, or Connecticut style with butter? Either way, the fresh meal was invented in New England.

Corn dogs
The origin of this battered hot dog on a stick is debatable. Some say it was invented in Springfield, Ill., some say the Texas State Fair and some say the Minnesota State Fair.

Brownie
Do you jump for the edges or the middle? The Brownie is said to have been created in our very own Chicago by a socialite whose husband owned the Palmer House Hotel. The treat was to serve as a boxed lunch dessert for women attending the World's Columbian Exposition.

Ranch dressing
If you're American, particularly Midwestern, you know that ranch dressing is more than a condiment—it's a necessity. The delicious dressing was made on a dude ranch in California in 1954.

Deep dish pizza
Though the restaurant of origin is often contested, Chicago-style deep-dish pizza was first introduced in the Windy City.

Philly cheesesteak
Philadelphians Pat and Harry Oliveri are credited as the creators of the cheesesteak. According to legend, hot dog vendor Pat threw some beef on the grill, attracting the attention of a taxi driver who ordered a steak sandwich.

Tater tots
Give us some of your tots. Ore-Ida founders in Oregon invented the tiny potato treasures when searching for a way to use their leftover shreds of cut-up potatoes.

I'm from Australia; I've tried turkey with cranberry sauce. It's quite nice but it needs to be done well as turkey can get dry easily due to the meat textures being more lean than chicken.

But I'm not into American food generally; I find them simple yet more on the unhealthy side. I've even noticed their bread and salads are full of fats and sugars.

Turky becoming dry is certainly an issue people work around. I've found solutions to it. If you just throw it into an oven and bake, it'll happen. If you brine it, and bake it in a roasting bag, I've not had the issue, but it does require more attention than something like chicken for sure.

It's kind of a ridiculous problem.

Literally all you have to do is separate the white and dark meat. That's it. But of course, then it doesn't look like the ones on TV and your family will hate you forever or something.

none of those things are "american foods"

turkeys have been around before the formation of the unites states

Green Bean Casserole is most certainly an American food, developed by a home economist working for Campbell Soups in 1955 when her boss wanted people to buy more soups and to find a way to use more soups. Green Bean Casserole uses Cream of Mushroom soup as an ingredient in the dish.

Roast the turkey in a foil tent, then for the last 30 minutes to an hour, roast without the tent to brown the skin.
