Description
Now that American food is actually American food, we egeet to talk about the food as America starts to sort out what it wants to be. The first answer is, BIGGER! And in order to do that the country has to break away - war #1 - and then kick the parent country to show that they aree big boy now - war #2 - and then continue to push the borders of the infant countryinto the lands of other nations - wars #3 to n+1. How American food adapted to all this expansion and fighting will be the center of season 3. But we also geet Gumbo, so that's good. Hop onto the Season 3 Mule Train and lets go see the new country.
