I think my list is largely American; all food is a cooking style, the ingredients are simply what is native to your region; America is a nation of immigrants so many of its foods are amalgamations, but that makes the result no less unique and American. A good example of this is the NYC deli sandwich; specifically the reuben and corned beef, which have European roots but you don't get it served that way in Europe. My favorite sandwich I've ever had is probably a Schwartz's, but even this is unique and not at all American even if a cousin. But then you also have many pockets of truly unique foods built on the imagination of immigrants, like the banh mi, which is a uniquely Vietnamese version of the New Orleans po-boy*.

*wikipedia suggests the banh mi was native to Vietnam in the 1950s prior to immigration of many Vietnamese to New Orleans, but I will not let fact deter my narrative.

Bahn Mi is French influenced Vietnamese’s food, Americans probably imported it after losing the war.

America does have the best sandwiches.

I would give my right arm for one of those Jewish salt beef sandwiches or a proper cheesesteak, or a beef on weck.

While it's hard to disagree with this comment, it would seem more clever if I had not written what you quoted

It comes from the Arabic word al-bāḏinjān, apparently.

"Eggplant" originally only applied to white cultivars, which did actually look like eggs.
