Cuisine that is typical of many cultures worldwide either by virtue of obvious uses of local foodstuffs and similar preparation methods or through trade. Many dishes with different origins being approximations of flavor profiles that are common across many different cultures. These profiles that are desirable amongst the majority of humans are a result of food preferences being partially genetic in nature and can explain things such as the use of sweet and sour in many cuisines being paired together to overpower lower quality cuts of meat even though humans also commonly share a preference for sweet fruit over sour fruit.


Barbecue (also barbeque, BBQ and barby/barbies) is a cooking method and apparatus. While there is a vast degree of variation and overlap in terminology and method surrounding this form of cooking, the generally accepted difference between barbecuing and grilling is in the cooking time and type of heat used. Grilling is generally done quickly over moderate-to-high direct heat with little smoke, while barbecuing is done slowly over low indirect heat and the food is flavored by the smoking process.
