    My 4 year old nephews always asks to get the “green stuff” removed from their pizza’s because it looks like vegetables. I imagine Americans the same way.

    Edit: seeing the downvotes, I’ll double down with some examples to illustrate my point. Adapting dishes to the American public generally just involves removing vegetables and making it less healthy generally by adding more sauce, sugar, fat and/or salt.

    Chinese food -> More sauce and remove the vegetables

    Gyros -> remove the fresh vegetables

    Burritos -> overload with just meat, cheese, sour cream, remove the vegetables

    Tacos -> whatever Taco Bell does, you don’t really want to eat their raw vegetables anyway

    Crepes -> remove the fruits, just do nutella and sugar

    Pasta/Macaroni dishes -> just cheese (Mac n cheese)

    Curry dishes -> just the meats and rice please, remove the vegetables
