Fast food, hamburgers so big they\u2019re difficult to eat, onion rings, chicken nuggets\u2026. All these iconic foods imported from the United States have had huge success throughout the world, even in cultures with vastly different styles of food such as the Mediterranean where fruits, vegetables and legumes make up the majority of plates. North American food, particularly that of the United States, has always had an attractive marketing style with their calorie-filled, delicious and fun kitchen, making a spot for itself in Spain with different fast food joints. Hamburgers and pizza are attractive takeaway options when you don\u2019t want to cook and are looking for a hardy, delicious meal, which is why today in this article from <\/span>ShBarcelona<\/b><\/a> we\u2019ll be telling you where to find classic United States-style food in the Ciudad Condal. <\/span><\/p>\n

The type of food generally associated with the United States is not always representative of the varied and eclectic types of food that actually exist within the country; due in grand part to the large mix of cultures and communities that form the melting pot which is the U.S., you can find all kinds of food from different parts of the world coexisting in this North American country. For this reason, there is no set way to describe a \u201ctypical\u201d plate of the United States, although it is advertised as being limited to high-calorie foods such as hamburgers and <\/span>pizza<\/b><\/a>. In reality, the majority of dishes in the U.S. originated in other places including Ireland, Italy, England, Mexico, Africa, France and different parts of Asia, as well as indigenous foods from different Native American cultures. In Barcelona, there are stores that specialize in North American products that you generally wouldn’t find in a grocery store outside of the U.S., so North Americans can enjoy their snacks from home and those in Barcelona can try out some some foods they’ve perhaps never tried before. This is the case for <\/span>Taste of America<\/b>, a store where you can find candies, cereals, chocolates, pancakes, baked goods, condiments, soups, snacks and beers from the U.S. All of these products are imported directly from the United States, and you can buy their products online or in-store, with physical locations at <\/span>calle Arag\u00f3n, calle Balmes and at Esplugues de Llobregat. <\/b><\/p>\n
