Alright, guys—just being honest here as an American: this is 100% a real perspective. I’ll start by saying I don’t eat seafood, and I get that automatically puts me at a disadvantage when it comes to judging Spanish cuisine, since seafood is such a huge part of it. But even when it comes to the non-seafood staples like jamón, tortilla, and paella… they just don’t really hit for me.
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a good tortilla—especially fresh and warm—but when my mother-in-law serves it every third day, it starts to feel more routine than special. I think that’s part of the cultural difference: in the U.S., there’s a real emphasis on variety. One night it’s Thai takeout, the next night tacos, then maybe Italian or Korean BBQ. There’s this constant rotation that’s baked into our idea of a satisfying food experience.
