The last food on our list are California rolls, keeping our streak of Asian dishes going. California rolls are surprisingly the only dish that originates from America on our list. (Yes, not even french fries come from America!) California rolls, as the name suggests, were created by Japanese chef Ichiro Mashita in California in the 1960s.
