### Instruction: What is the best food in the world?
### Response: Humans love their food, don’t they? Why is that? Well, humans are born in places where there is a local cuisine that they grow up with and love. Eating this food established an association with a comforting experience and this is why most nations claim that the best food is in their country. However, there seems to be a global understanding that Italian, French, Thai and Japanese cuisines are some of the best in the world. The reason for this, apart from top quality genuine ingredients and local cultural importance, can be the positive association attached to the cuisine by mass media or personal experiences whilst on holiday.
