Question
Is French cuisine the best cuisine?
Position3 of 3

There is no 'best' cuisine

This position holds that there is no single 'best' cuisine. It argues that taste is subjective, shaped by personal and cultural experience with no neutral standard to rank by, and that each great tradition follows a different philosophy of food, making them incommensurable rather than rankable.
