My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories

I feel like a lot of people are taking the post too literally (or maybe I’m not). I once knew a girl who posted a photo of her dad watching football on a plane captioned “Persian dads really need their football lol” and it’s like. That’s just a universal dad thing. Lots of dads in every culture do that.
Some people just do not think about cultures outside their own. Like, at all.
- Certain things are constant across cultures. Among them: food, sports, and music.
  And when I say "food", I mean beyond just biological sustenance. It's part of culture and an important part of social gatherings.
  
  But the importance of food can be very different still. As a German I would say food is not a huge part of social culture. Like yes we eat together when we celebrate, but the food is usually just a necessity instead of the main focus
  
  which is a shame because schupfnudeln fried in blutwurst and sauerkraut should be sang to high heaven
  
  I trust everywhere round the globe has it's own culture and heritage but some places are great with Culture, Cultural Food, Cultural Music, Cultural Dance, cultural History and Mysteries.
  I'm originally from Nigeria 🇳🇬 In Africa and as a citizen of the Giant of Africa, I can bet with my mother land that Africa is the true definition of Culture and Heritage.
  Regardless the ongoing crisis, which is also happening in other places in the world. Africa has been great and will forever be great!!! ✌✌✌
  
  Oktoberfest is not exactly not about food and drink though.
  
  Drinks jeah, food I would say partially only. I mean it's good high quality food, but again it's more like you have it because you need it. It's not like you will have multiple things or food to share on the table at all times like in other cultures.
  
  Fair enough

  Hey that IS my American culture!
- You are speaking facts 💯 👌
- The only thing that varies is the type of football. Looking at you America, but I think that is going to change very soon.
  
  Soon it will be FootWar, sponsored by Pete Hegseth and the War Hawks as well as sports betting.
