Bountiful California
Consider its culinary blessings:
California has magnificent edible gifts from both land and sea.
Its climate and soil enable it to grow most of the nation's vegetables.
It has a 1350- kilometer (840-mile) coastline kissed by a seafood-rich ocean current.
It has some of the world's best wine growing regions.
The list goes on and on.
Diverse ethnicity
California's 35-million-plus people come from many cultures and countries. This helped foster a fusion cuisine.
Not everyone
Of course, it would be a mistake to suggest that everyone is a bona fide California cuisiner. Most citizens are not. This is the land of fast food, where many of the nation's leading chains - including McDonalds and Taco Bell - were started.
