I have eaten most of those but I was tempted to pretend I haven't.
My point was a major simplification of how American assimilation happens or I think ideally it should happen. Cultural heritage is important and mixing cultures together is the best version of America in my opinion.
I'm saying that American culture is a tapestry of it's subcultures and it's subcultures are sourced far and wide. The idea isn't to go with direct and hard assimilation the way people talk about French assimilation as was mentioned at other points in this thread where immigrants adopt French mannerisms but that American immigrants adopt some American mannerisms while bringing their own that other Americans adopt. I used really simple and identifiable culture parts like food.
