Post As a rule, there is high correlation between quality of cuisine and historical access to good ingredients. High latitude countries in particular have a short growing season with a resulting narrow range of vegetables and fruits compared to countries in the goldilocks zone of good 30-50 degrees from the equator. This is a better-considered variant of my "northern nations' cuisine" hypothesis. The hypothesis posits that the further north one travels from the equator, the cuisines generally get lousier, until you reach the northernmost cuisines: Yupik, Inuit, Canadian, Scottish, English, Irish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Mongolian, Russian, and of course, North Korean. all of which are lousy.
