When it comes to food, a major trend in recent years has been the idea of fusion cuisine. This means the mixing of multiple cuisines to make something new and delicious that has elements that will be familiar to multiple groups. A great example of this in the United States is Tex-Mex, which blends Mexican foods and flavors with those of the southern US – most notably Texas.
