Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

A LOT of things in that list aren’t originally American, or even commonly American

That's literally one of America's superpowers. immigrants bringing ideas and foods from their cultures then as they integrate these ideas become more ingrained in local identities (and of course morph over time to adapt to local tastes) and later might even become something entirely different and so nationally popular that it becomes an exported cultural sensation.
