The United States first developed as distinct regions isolated from one another, much like individual countries.  New immigrants tended to settle according to nationality, forming tight urban and rural communities with strong threads of languages and cuisines.  In each region, the people brought with them their customs and adapted them to indigenous food and ingredients.  Americans have taken Old World cuisines and combined them with regional ingredients and traditions to create foods uniquely American.
