When I go out to eat, I more often than not find myself choosing some sort of international cuisine. I was at Disney World last month and honestly wanted to just eat in every restaurant in Epcot. We eventually settled on France (I do love French cuisine but ultimately the decision was made for where we could get a reservation). In fact, I’ve been on a French kick as of late. But ultimately I’d say my top 3 (impossible to narrow it down anymore) are Italian, any sort of Asian cuisine, and Mexican. Those are the go-to’s that I will never fail to be in the mood for. But do most people agree with me? Well, our friends at PickyEaterBlog decided to take a look at some of the world’s most popular cuisines.
They recently shared their conclusions with us, and it does line up fairly well with my personal preferences. So how was this list made? PickyEaterBlog used Instagram hashtags and compiled data for several determinations. I’m telling you about the most popular cuisines but they also looked at the most popular meal types and most common types of restaurants. Keep reading to see the 7 most popular international cuisines based on their research. You can read the full study and methodology here. Which is your favorite? One thing is for sure I’m ready for lunch now!
This Brunch Classic Is North Carolina’s Favorite Comfort Food
There is just something about your favorite comfort food. While I won’t binge on them constantly, I enjoy some good down-home southern home cooking from time to time.

The researchers over at E-Conolight analyzed Google search data to determine the most popular comfort foods in each state. And by popular they mean the most searched for. And there were some fantastic foods that made the list including chicken and dumplings, cheese grits, pot roast, stuffing, and chili. In fact, reading this list has made me hungry for lunch. And not the salad I was planning on having either. But what did the data show as the most popular comfort food in North Carolina? It’s a good one that combines both sweet and salty and honestly what more can you ask of a food?
