Personally I don't see the point in being so combative. People's food preferences depend on where they're from and what they've grown up eating. For example, someone from Hungary might think that raw onions on bread is a good lunch, while the rest of the world would consider that "a bit lunatic". I don’t have a problem with Americans preferring American pizza, Italians preferring Italian pizza, or Hungarians liking raw onion bread.
One thing is saying that they prefer, and other is saying that its the better version or even the best. Especially since its a well known fact that the US food safety standards are pretty low.
