1Italy
I'm in love with Italian food! I can also say that it has variety from 10.000 kinds of spaghetti and pizza also sea food. I've eaten there a pizza and it only had tomatoes and mozzarella it was the best I could ever imagine it's awesome! And also let's face it everyone like Italian food!
Italy best food for the pizza everything it is the best in the world not Mexico.
Italian food is so good there's pizza, spaghetti and lots of other good food! But I do love tacos from Mexico they got it right! Just like the Italians I'm also Italian!

2Mexico
TACOS, QUESADILLAS, TORTAS AND OF COURSE A MARGARITA TO ENJOY. MEXICAN FOOD IS TRULY THE BEST FOOD.
Mexican food has every thing, from very spicy, to sour, sweet, all kind of eatable meat and all variety of seafood, the desserts are also tasty. The food can be eaten in a very fancy restaurant as in a food stall on the street and it taste just awesome. The ingredients are very common now and can be found in any where in the planet and can still taste just as it is eaten in Mexico, obviously if is well prepared.
In some countries, you need to go and explore the street to definitely find the real flavor of the local food, and if you eat it out side the country it is very difficult to meet the right flavor as in the original.

4United States
There's more to the united states than food eating competitions and the disgusting fast-food side.. If anyone has had true southern cooking they can say that american cuisine definitely ranks amount the top! And Sloppy joes YUMMY! New york system hot wieners (only found mainly in Rhode Island) along with coffee milk. The united states definitely I would vote it at number 3. 1= italy (if you've ever eaten a REAL genuine italian dinner you know that it's been your most favorite meal ever. My fiance and his sisters are first generation americans but their parents are straight the old country. Every sunday we have a huge family dinner and to me it's just pure bliss) 2: chinese/china 3: united states/american cuisine 4: mexican 5: japan/japanese 6: india/indian 7: german 8: french (only thing I've ever like was escargot.. I had that in the french quarter of the bahamas) 9: cambodian/vietnamese 10: thai
United States not only has original fan favorites, like burgers, hot dogs, and chips, it also has all our other favorite foods. Pizza, chocolate, steak, chicken, ice cream, tacos, ribs, bacon, sushi, fruit, macaroni and cheese... Can't believe we're getting whooped by that England crap. The only good things they have are fish and chips, roast dinner, custard, and key lime pie. Everything else sucks, from haggis to shepherd's pie. And Mexican food, I love you so much. You deserve number 1. You're not the best, but at least you're a country with rocking food.

The barbecue here is amazing. KC, Memphis, North Carolina, and Texas all are spectacular. KC is famous for its ribs and beef brisket. The sauce is thick and sweet. Memphis has its ribs, which are prepared with a dry rub, a mixture of spices. North Carolina is pulled pork country. They have an interesting array of sauces. One is clear and vinegar-based, another vinegar-based but with a tomato base, and the last, a mustard based sauce. Texas is all about brisket. A Texas sauce balances the tartness of a NC sauce with the sweetness of a KC sauce.

5China
China's food AMAZING! Who doesn't want sweetcorn soup, duck pancakes, and lovely spicy sweet new food to try. China's the place to eat throughout a holiday.
I used to be a foreign missionary (Christian) in China so I've eaten my share of Chinese food. The food over there has a more far eastern flavor to it. Over here in the USA the flavor of Chinese food is more westernized. However I like both styles very much & I like the wide variety of food they have as well! I love lo mein & mu shu beef the most! They have the best food in the world in my humble opinion!
I like chinese food but sometimes it's difficult to eat authentic chinese. They smell funny at times. May be too much of fish sauce or soya sauce. At times the ingredients are awfully bizzare. And God, they eat everything, I mean everything! Yaks! At least that has been my experience in singapore. Indianised or americanised chinese is much more likable for all palattes.

6Japan
The ever-popular sushi, teriyaki, tempura, and miso soup all belong to Japanese cuisine. Add to that a healthy balance of vegetables, fish, fruits, meat, and rice EVERYWHERE, and you have Japanese food!
Admittedly some people may get a little put-off by all the weird stuff Japan comes up with to eat, but I think a little adventure and mystery thrown into a meal is a wonderful thing.

7Turkey
It is quite simple actually: Ottoman food covers all delicious Lebanese, Balkanise, Greek and Syrian food. More over finises with delicious Turkish coffee. Syrians are proud of their baklava and humus, greeks for their musakka and gyros, balkans for boreks and dolmas. But actually all these are parts of Turkish cuisine.
Think of it this way. The Ottoman Empire controlled all these Mediterranean countries and Slavic countries and took their cuisine. Throughout the years, they improved upon all the food they gained. A small shop selling food in Turkey taste just as good as any extremely expensive restaurant in countries like the United States or England. Turkish food is healthy and delicious. Nothing can compare. If you want to go to a country for food, you can't go wrong with Turkey. They understand food better than anyone.
SO MEDITERRANEAN! SO DELICIOUS! NONE OF THAT MUSHY NASTY FOOD IT'S AUTHENTIC AND TASTE CLEAN AND REAL!

8England
Its always nice to have a real English meal, made with local fresh meat and veg. Its a shame that true homemade English classics are getting forgotten. And people never seem to find the true English/British greats.
The French tried British food on T.V. resonantly and they mostly loved it and said"it was good! ", then they were asked about the stereotype/reputation of British food and repleted "not so good? ". It was mentioned that the stereotype started after WW2 when England had no food to have a bad reputation about as they had to they had to rations what they had. Today the food has a bad rep as it suffered lots of criticizing especially from the Spanish, Italians and the US of A the French was known as one of their best criticizers that all like putting England food down to make their food better, especially after WW2 when the start of the 20TH century when the UK as a whole(including Scotland, wale and England)lost its "best food in the world" reputation for two century (the 18TH and 19TH) but it is now the 21TH century and people are still putting it down like a bad joke, well it is now as it's not like the stereotype/reputation can go down anymore. It is even noted lots of people will not go to the UK as they are stupid enough to believe this stereotype they won't even try to find the true or their own opinion as they are so closed-minded that can heart a country and its people, you just need a bit of knowledge to start finding the truth.

French food's the best. You haven't had god food unless you've eaten at the best restaurants in Paris. Chez Flottes has the best duck, amazing cheese, and a cheesy potato dish that's to die for. Italy's the only country that compares, everything else is just garbage.

The food is amazing! Some plates are strange but the flavour is unique! Peru is famous for its Ceviche, pachamanca, anticuchos, Causa all very very good! And if you don't feel weird trying guinea pig then do it! If not try at least the sauce in the picante de cuy so good!
Peru won 2011 best culinary arts and variety so Peru has the best food biggest variety not everything is spicy or just seafood in every part of the country the is different flavor

11Philippines
Nothing beats filipino cuisine especially when it comes to viands like Sinigang, Kare-kare, Adobo, Caldereta, etc. Best to serve with any type of rice! They also got the best street foods like kwek-kwek (deep fried flour-coated quail eggs), ice scramble (strawberry flavored ice shavings topped with milk powder, choco syrup and some candies) and many more. There's more to say but I'll just leave it for you to prove. By the way, best quality mangoes can only be found in the Philippines.
What I love in the Philippines are their exotic foods. From snakes to birds and more other kinds of weird and exotic dishes. Really tasting that you wouldn't even know what kind of meat you're eating until you asked.
Their seafood dishes are also great. Up for Philippine food!
Their seafood dishes are also great. Up for Philippine food!
Philippine food is a fusion of (1) the classic Southeast Asian varieties and (2) the Spanish cuisine. This combination makes for the best experience for anybody's palate. It's just a matter of knowing where to eat and what dish to taste. Lonely Planet's guide to the Philippines gives good recommendations with regard to food!

Moussakas, Tzatziki, Gyros, Ouzo..So mediterranean and so healthy!
Best food in the world. The ingrediants always fresh and locally grown. I can happily eat a salad out there with just oil on it and because the ingrediants are that much better it tastes lovely. At home when I make salad I need lots of dressing as ingrediants are not local, not fresh and covered in chemicals.
Greek food also very very healthy grilled meats with herbs spices, fresh fish, salads!

16Canada
Although I do prefer Mexican food, I have to clear up some of the comments left here because it is making my country appear super lame. Quebec is home to the famous Poutine... Greasy and artery clogging, but EXTREMELY tasty. Then there's the east coast. If the Maratime provinces could classify as a country, they would give these other guys a run for their money. Atlantic Canada is home to the tastiest seafood you can find ANYWHERE. Lobsters, clams, scallops, mussels, oysters, quahogs, shrimp, mackeral, bar clams, dulse, crab, salmon (particularly maple-candied smoked atlantic salmon. M... ), and much more. All fresh from honest hard-working fisherman. Don't knock Canadian food until you've tried shellfish recipes from your friendly folks on the east coast!
Here in canada, we like to cook our food over campfires on a stick. The smore, hot dog, and the ever elusive, spider dog.
Boiled potatoes, musher carrots and fast fried pork chops - oh wait that was my childhood. Okay I like Indian but Canada is multicultural so it has it all if you know where to look. And Korean is great too!

17Portugal
The best use of spices in the Western world. Plus the salted Call of Duty dishes are simply a national treasure, there are thousands of them, and they all from good to great. Then you come to deserts, the Pastel de Belem, Ovos Moles, and lots of other fresh and complex delicacies will make you salivate from just thinking of them, let alone see, smell and then taste one of them!
Wine-wise, it's hard to beat a country where you can buy a bottle of decent wine for 1 Euro, and if you wish you can also have a sip ot the timeless Port and Madeira! There's a reason why Shakespeare would make characters sell their soul to the Devil for just a sip of these nectars, and why the drafting of the US constitutiuon was celebrated with copious amounts of them!

22Malaysia
If you have been to Penang you will know what is the real delicious food. The Hokkien Prawn noodle, Penang Assam Laksa, Duck eggs Char Koay Teow, Wan Tan noodle, Nasi Lemak... Etc. These are just a few mouth watering dishes you can find in Penang. Other states in Malaysia such as KL, Sabah.. Etc also have loads of great dishes that you will love.
Malaysian food. The best in the world, the most important thing is the food is halal an can be eaten whether Muslims and non-Muslims. Some countries are not providing sufficient halal food. It's really difficult and disturbing to travel to those country that not providing halal food.
Agree.. Malaysian food is the best in the world. I went to Malaysia and shocked with their mixing culture. They had malay food like nasi lemak, Chinese food like kuey tiaw, Indian food like roti canai.. Its good to eat them

There are so many types of food-just go to their dinner table and they have these tons of delicious things... Like so many types of things and I don't even know how to describe them. Versatile tastes... And very very healthy. There was actually this guy (American-as in blond with blue eyes)who had cancer and cured it by eating strictly healthy Korean food. Korean food are mostly, although not all, plant-based, and extremely healthy. That is not to say that their meats are not delicious, because they are amazing!
I been in Korea for three years and I love em. Korea not only has spicy and filthy looking food--although they do still taste good, just that a start is not easy laugh out loud--, they also have mild and soft cuisines. In fact, most of their traditional dishes are not spicy, but sweet, keep the flavor of original ingredients, look gook--use at least five colors--, use natural unique ingredients. Kimchi and Bulgogi are not just enough to explain Korean food!
Best of the best... I would say...
Best food ever I have tried.. Bibimbap, Grilled fish, kimchi, bulgogi, gabche... Different types of sweet sour pickles owo... Mouthwatering cuisines. Korea deserves to be in top ten... Best Food fresh and delicious.
Made with love, that's what gives it so good taste
Try it and you won't be able to stop eating

Common fish and chips with lots of fat is no food it is junk... And we can recognize Yanks and UK gents just cause of their skins... They eat almost no vegetables...

Brazilian food is just amazing ever in north jersey go to Newark's Ironbound to the Casa Nova grill :D Delicious
They have so many exotic desserts like Quimdin which is coconut with egg and it is very sweet. They also have so many fruits there that it's hard to choose. They also have great BBQ's where the meat is on one table with bread and evryone crowds there to get the meat.

Just thinking about the food now is making my taste buds get all crazy, yum! I love the jerk but there is just so many other delicacies I can't even choose a favorite. Never knew lobster could be done in so many different ways. Ok I need to stop now before I book a ticket to go back to Jamaica mon'... No Problem!
No other chicken beats Jerk Chicken... Hands down!

The best restaurants in the world! I had no idea, and then I went to Belgrade with some people. I could not bealive it! Why these people don't advertise this more - I ll never know.
Ahh; Burek, Sarma, Gibanica, Å ljivovica, simply unbeatable.
When I die I want sarma and cevapi to be served on my funeral, of course all watered with RAKIJA!

52Bosnia and Herzegovina
Great country, food with a personal touch, mostly using natural and healthy ingridiens. People are friendly, traveling and visiting places affordable and fun. The best time to visit is august during Sarajevo film festival. Enjoy Bosnia.
I was there in 1984 for the winter Olympic Games and I tried tons of different foods over there and all foods tasted heavenly. Bosnia definitely has the tastiest food ever!
Well it's a small country, I really didn't expect a lot of people voting for it. But if you ever get a chance to visit Bosnia, you will most likely have the best food of your life.

54Denmark
Denmark is number 1 in food! '! '! They have the best food ever!
GO DENMARK.
GO DENMARK.
I love all Scandinavian foods. While I do agree with Sweden at 16 or 15, Denmark offers less meat, more fish. MORE FISH THAN SWEDEN?! Move it up on the list! Come on my fellow Danes! Vote for Denmark!
The best restaurant in the world two years in a row, NOMA, is placed in Denmark. The food culture getting better year after year!

56Mauritius
Great mix of Indian, French and African cuisine. For seafood lovers, it is just amazing! Fresh seafood but also dried ones, sounds disgusting but when I tried it, it was amazing and didn't taste strong or anything. But it was certainly something new for my palate.
57Ethiopia
When you test this food.. You know what I mean, Ethiopians know how to cook right. Even the most casual food in Ethiopian dish is so delicious and testy. DonÂ't hesitate and try it, for sure you will love it.
Do not be vain. No food as clean, exotic, original, and tasty as Ethiopian. Yummy! Archeology in a Table. Proof that when you sit for Ethiopian cuisine, you are tasting a cuisine that has been stewing and being tweaked for thousands of years.
Easily by far the best food from Africa. Should be much higher on the list.

58Puerto Rico
Puerto rico have a great diversiity and a great flavor in the gastronomy... The puertorrican food is unforgettable and makes many Puerto Ricans have to ask to send food to their families from the country, because the flavor of Puerto Rican gastronomy is impossible to match.
There are so many influences in Puerto rican cooking and so many varieties of cooking styles. Its hard to judge the taste is in the palate
Arroz con Pollo, Stew with Shrimp, Pork Roast (Pernil), Cocunut gelatin (Tembleque), Roast beef Stew and my favorite, Pumpkin Flan... Puerto Rican cooking has African, Spanish, Indian, French and American fusion, tasty, flavorful and abundant...
59Croatia
LOVE CROATIAN FOOD, TRIED IT ONCE AND I LOVE IT!
YUMMY!
YUMMY!
And lets not forget prosciutto, truffels, fish...
Croatian food is the best. Not gmo. Fish, meat is amazing! Traditional dalmatian peka with meat or octopuss on traditonal way!
60Hungary
Delicious, but not the most popular ones. Fish soup, cabbage in Kolozsvár style, layered vegetable dishes (layered beans, layered kale, etc), paprika chicken, but most of all, the queen of all dishes, pancakes in Hortobágy style are a lot better and more pleasing to a non-Hungarian taste than E.G. goulash. And no Hungarian chicken soup that you will have in any restaurant will do justice to what it really is, E.G. when made at home with no ingredients spared.
Hungarian meat soup, goulash soup, bean soup, goulash, gypsy steak, and bejgli etc. the best
Szeretlek Magyarország! :)
Hungary has the best Eastern European food. Fact.

61Nigeria
I love the yoruba food like; the pounded yam with cooked vegetables (efo riro) epecially when packed with all sort of meats or fish... Its the best also, the Ibibo's vegetable (afagan soup)... Its really good too... But I think the Yorubas have the best although cooking it is not easy
come on who has not tasted jellof rice or at least heard how great it tastes.
Nigerian food comprises mainly of soul food, they are tasty and the variety of meals are as many as the various ethnic groups... I particularly love the yoruba meal 'amala' often eaten with 'ewedu' soup, you should try them if you ever get the chance to.

Haitian food is delicious especially theie Greo which is pork with green peppers onions and spices with that black rice they make with mushrooms is so good. Just the aroma alone of Haitian food will have your mouth watering. Real talk and I'm not Haitian by the way so you might want to look up some recipes or go to a Haitian resteraunt to get the real deal.
Everyone should at least try haitian food, its amazing, I love it. Everyone I met that has eaten Haitian food told me its the best thing they have ever eat.
Haitian food is just amazing, their cuisine came from Spanish as well as African. Their combination of Spices is perfect, I'm not even Haitian and I love their food like it.

I have to say Afghan food is the best cause I Love Afghan food and taste is absolutely great I am not saying because I am Afghan you have to try it so you can believe me.. Every single person who had tried Afghan food believe me they loved it.. And I am sure you will love it too!
All the mentioned food are my all time favorite.. I think there is no such country to compete with Afghanistan in order to make and cook delicious food. Manto, qabili polaw, ashak, qorma, shorwa, and plenty of more in this list.
Afghan food is the best, the dishes are very traditional, Mantu, Qabili Palaw, Nrange Palaw, Ashak, Bolani... And amazing deserts Haleem, Shirpira... If you had it once, you would definitely vote

A lot of countries have very good tasting food I personally love yemeni food. I am not yemeni but the food is very delicious. It also deserves to be looked at there is many beautiful places there as well as the food
Yemen has a lot of different kinds of dishes that are very very GOOD, and also a lot of different kinds of bread and different ways of cooking meat that is also very good, I truly think that Yemen is one of the best countries but, sadly its not well known because of all the problems, Yet, everyone should visit Yemen someday there are great peaces to go to great food and GREAT people. :)
Because of it's government issues, Yemen is not widely known, however if it was it's delicious foods and goods would be at the top of the list.

Yes! Mongolian food is delicious! Especially, the meat soup! You guys want to know why we love meat? Because that's our culture and we love it! And, they have healthy foods to try, too. IF you are going to Mongolia - go to a premium restaurant, not little restaurants.
81Somalia
I have to say Somali food is one of the best in east Africa, They are meat lovers, they serve meat with every thing, if you never had a camel meat Mogadishu should be your destination.
I Love the camel meat and tastes Delicious, I am not saying this because I am Somali But I have tried different types of meat nothing tastes like camel meat.
Nowadays Somalis all over the place if you happen to be in Europe or even in the US you will find some Somali restaurants, I recommend you should try canjeero with suqaar, or the camel meat;)!
Somalia should in the top ten NOT 84 come on

94Liberia
It’s true that there are many kinds of good food around the world / food preparation, i‘ll say Liberia should be part of the first ten listen in the world.
How do you understand the word food? Are you looking at it from the stand point of its quantity or from the view point of how many people eat it simply because that's the only one they are used to seeing around them there4 have no other alternative. If it is for reason better than that and if it is about it's quality preparation then the answer to your problem is Liberia. Liberia is a small country in west Africa which shares borders with Sierra Leon on the west, Guinea on the north, Ivory Coast on the east and the Atlantic Oceon on the south.
Liberians food is one of the best. If you don't believe it, ty it.
95Trinidad and Tobago
Trinidad and Tobago has simply the best food. Doubles, roti. Crab and dumplings, bake and shark on Maracus bay. When you bite into a bake and shark the flavor explodes in you mouth. Trust me you have to go to Trinidad AND Tobago and taste all of the provisions and delicacies.
They have some of the best food combinations based on their many cultural influences, such as curry crab and dumpling, bake and shark, pealau and doubles. The names and palette combination may sound odd but trust me your taste buds would truly find it heavenly.
