One of the best things about international migration is that it brings new food experiences into our lives.  The globalisaion of taste has been occurring ever since explorers travelled to distant lands and brought strange food back with them, however, in recent times it has accelerated.  International migration, along with global communication and media saturation are perhaps the three biggest reasons why people are more willing to try out new food experiences that originated in different cultures.  The cooking recipes (Kochrezepte) from some nations have travelled so far and wide that they are cooked all over the world, and many have in a sense become international dishes.

Spanish, Italian and Indian recipes provide some of the most popular cuisine all over the world, with dishes from all three of these countries found in cities as far apart as Canada and Australia.  Other popular national cuisine includes dishes from Thailand, Mexico and China.  Every western nation in particular has been influenced by the food of multiple  cultures, which have forever changed and inspired the diet (Diät) of the last few generations.  Indian curry recipes like Korma, Tikkamasala and Dhal;  Chinese recipes such as fried rice, sweat and sour pork and chow mein;  Italian recipes such as lasagne, pizza and canneloni and Spanish dishes like assorted tapas, la fabada and el cocido can be found in kitchens all over the world.  In some places like the United Kingdom, the globalisation of food has reached such a stage that Indian dishes are almost like an alternative national cuisine.

A lot of people in western nations enjoy an extremely varied diet, thanks to the help of international food migration.  With the availability of recipes on the Internet, and many useful cook books and magazines dedicated to global cuisine – it is easier than ever before to enjoy the food of people from far flung lands.  The nature of globalisation will probably ensure that this trend continues into the future, with the dishes of even more nations adding to and inspiring the collective global menu.
