No, they don't.
There are some similarities, but French cuisine, for example, is very different to Albanian cuisine, as Lebanon cuisine is very different to Spanish or Italian.
In Europe, we think of the Mediterranean diet as based on the cuisine of Greece, Italy and Spain, which tends towards a higher consumption of olive oil, vegetables and fish. |
