TasteAtlas released a list of the top 100 best cuisines in the world. Unfortunately, though, India did not feature in the top ten. In the comments section, a lot of people were significantly disappointed by this. As per the rankings, India bagged the 12th spot on the list.

The number one on this list was the Greek cuisine. Items like olives, wine, and a variety of meats are a staple in the cuisine. In addition to these, Greek food also uses a lot of dairy products like yoghurt and cheese. Types of bread, too, are quite prominently used in the cuisine.

Despite using meats, Greek food, like Indian food, has a wide array of vegetarian and plant-based meals, making them a popular choice for vegetarians and vegans alike!
