In at least a couple of places one encounters some rather old cliches regarding two of the earliest ethnic groups in the US (I'm sure there are others, but I don't have the background to identify them).
There are other issues here but this is already very long and so I'll await some responses. Overall the prose in this section is not very encyclopedic and seems like it was written by a small child for a school assignment. Jonathan f1 ( talk) 23:51, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
I have reverted recent content reduction in the lead as there doesn't seem to be sufficient rationale for its removal. That can be discussed here. Stefen Towers among the rest! Gab • Gruntwerk 19:22, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
Max2284, you are saying the summary content you removed belongs in the History section. Can you explain why this is necessary? Just saying that you think it has to be removed or placed somewhere else is insufficient and the multiple removals are disruptive. Stefen Towers among the rest!

Multiple editors have been going after the first paragraph in the lead for being "political" or being not "correct" where it was at. What exactly is the issue here? Stefen Towers among the rest! Gab • Gruntwerk 08:26, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
The lead should talk about American cuisine and not other cuisines. Max22812 ( talk) 08:27, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
We should make it a separate paragraph. Max22812 ( talk) 08:28, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
We should remove Jewish and Greek because is does not influence the cuisine enough and the articles are poorly sourced. The article doesn’t have more then three sources as you can see. Max22812 ( talk) 08:35, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
I will separate the sentence with a paragraph of sources. Max22812 ( talk) 08:39, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Splitting it would be easier to read. Max22812 ( talk) 08:43, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Influences are historical also it talks about natives. Max22812 ( talk) 08:45, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
If we keep it as it is there won’t be anymore conflicts I can guarantee you. Max22812 ( talk) 08:46, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
They are because I’ve added sources. Max22812 ( talk) 08:49, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Like how I said the main articles are poorly sourced if you click on it. Max22812 ( talk) 08:51, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
I’ve added Arab American because Middle Eastern cuisine is popular in the United States. 94.79.67.92 ( talk) 15:45, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
