Well, almost EVERY dish in the italian cuisines was born as peasant food (yes, cuisines: there's a huge difference between the various local cuisines).
Among the most classical "poor" food, common to most parts of Italy, you can find polenta (boiled maize flour, usually served with cheese or with tomato sauce and sausages), minestrone (mixed vegetable soup), trippa (tripe), peperonata (stewed bell peppers, sometimes with meat), polpette (not-just-meat-balls: you also add eggs, flour, and some vegetables), and polpettone (the "big meatball": like polpette, and it's typically made with the leftovers of previous meals).

Minestrone:

Trippa al sugo:

“I remember at school I used to lay out all my food in front of me, my salami, my pasta doura bread, and all the kids they used to laugh at me. Now you lay it out on a platter, call it antipasto and they pay $20 for it.”

You must be a fake Aussie, nobody in their right mind drinks Foster's here.

I will grant you that but coopers is shit beer too, their Pale Ale is glorified home brew.

[Blouman Empire]

Biscuits and gravy. It's what God eats in the mornings:

How people could enjoy this I don't think I could stomach that looks like what was found on the bottom of a fry pan the next morning and thrown over some stale scones.

"The wog boy" if I recall correctly.

You're Australian, right? I don't think the country that gave us the meat pie floater has any room to cast aspersions

I thought people would object to the cheese grits, more than the biscuits. Sausage gravy is made from drippings, I'll give you that, but the biscuits are fresh-made. There's few things better in the morning than fresh biscuits.

Little Creatures was ok, I need to give it a second try. Coopers tastes like grim death, though, like it's distilled from petrol.

Draught is a fantastic session beer.

[Cameroi]

like itally, and china before it, cameroi loves the noodle. preferably of the thick square cross sectioned variety closely resembling the japanese udon. but pasta of any shape and form is held in far higher esteem then bread, which is almost unheard of, potatoes, or rice. frying is almost completely unheard of as well.

probably camaroi's most notable consumable is the lubintau elixer, which somewhat resembles a mocha espresso. ice cream and cakes are often commonly of this flavour as well.

spicy dill pickles, olives and kimchee, are also quite popular. as are ravioli and tortollini, but either simply in their cooking broth or with a mushroom cream sauce.

mushroom and pasta soups are considered the staff of life as it were.

organic hydroponic greenhouse tomatoes are grown all year round, but are almost always used in salads rather then cooked. wild greens such as miners lettice, which really doesn't resemble lettice very much at all, often find their way into cameroi salads. as do a variety of wild nuts and berries.

oddly enough cameroi grows no wheat, but makes flour for baking by an almost secret proccess from acorns and sometimes millet. on the other hand orchards are quite common. and pine nuts are harvested and sometimes turned into pine nut butter.

filberts grow wild as does bay laural. fresh water bivalves can be found in many of camroi's streams and are sometimes cultivated. avacadoes are loved but have to be imported or grown in greenhouses.

probably the most popular dish is a kind of pasta salad with cooked, processed and preserved fish meat in it. sometimes pickles and olives as well.

Well technically it really is only one state, most of the rest of the country has no idea what a pie floater is let alone ever had one.

Well despite what I may say about it, I would like to try it one day, I enjoy sampling local delicacies during my travels.

Gravy usually doesn't have suspiciously large clumps in it...


Also, most Southern food isn't fit to eat compared to "soul"/poor-sucker food of most other nations or areas of the country.

Soul food: pig intestines filled with other pig organs, pig intestines stewed in festering water for hours, pieces of things covered in flour and fried until there is nothing but fat and breaded skin left, etc

[Megaloria]

Grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup, with some chipotle sauce, and of course dunking those sandwiches into the soup itself. This is the definition of joy.

[Gopferdammi]

Well it's not like theres anything like a unified Swiss cuisine, so here are some peasant-ish foodstuffs from different parts of the country:
Röschti -

Bünder Griessuppe -

Äupler Maggrone -

Hörnli mit Hackfleisch -

Bärner Platte -

Zürcher Gschnätzlets -

Biscuits and gravy. It's what God eats in the mornings:


He also eats red-eye gravy and cheese grits with the biscuits:


Can't forget the chitlins:

Ew.

You can always pick Southern food out in a line-up.

Just ask yourself "Does it look like vomit"?

[The_pantless_hero]

well, like I said, gravy usually doesn't come with what I am assuming is chunks of fat in it.

Also, I imaging some of that stuff would actually count as vomit were it not cooked...

[Heinleinites]

It's not chunks of fat, it's chunks of sausage. That's how you make sausage gravy: You cook yourself some sausage. Then you take the sausage out of the pan. You add shortening, vegetable oil, or lard to the drippings in the skillet. Then you add flour, stirring until blended and bubbling. Then you add some milk. You stir it all up until it's thick and bubbly. Dump in the sausage. Then you top it off with a little Tabasco.

You imagine wrong. Although, chitlins is innards but that's about as far as it goes.
