I think mines'd be:

Haggis, Neeps & Tatties, with either a glass of Famous Grouse scotch, or Irn Bru (soft drink, very sugary, very orange.)

It's basically mashed potato, haggis and mashed swede/turnips. Really nice.

I don't like that the wiki calls it a "tortilla." It's like five times thicker than the tortillas most people are familiar with and they don't even taste the same or have the same consistency~

Anyway, it's kind of like a non-bread dough that is flat and has stuff inside (usually cheese with loroco (I don't think this exists outside of Central America so I dunno English name but it's a herb or plant or something), or meat, or really whatever you want). My favourite are the cheese ones without loroco.

We also have casamiento, which is mixing rice with red beans and some garlic and sometimes onion.
 
Being from the US, the stereotypical dish would have to be burgers, hot dogs and hyper processed, "artificial" food.

As for California, it would have to be avacado, kale, cold-press juice, juice for clensing diets, anything super, hyper organic produce that is meat-free and gluten-free and of course, street tacos.

Hell, in San Francisco, one of the most stereotypical food right now is overpriced Avocado "toast"
 
Fish and chips, I suppose. It's one of those meals that can range from the really excellent to the sort of starchy mush fit only for selling to the falling-down-drunk.

Best I've ever had has consistently been in Padstow - no surprises there - from a chippy on the harbourfront that is nevertheless inexpensive when you look at the portion size
 
Canadian here. I guess aside from maple syrup, it would be poutine, which most people haven't even heard of. So eh.
 
Probably the sausage sandwich (a peice of folded bread with a sausage in the middle with tomato or barbeque sauce drizzled over the top, and often with barbequed onion as well), and vegimite on toast. Oh, and lamingtons as well, though they are a dessert.
 
So I consulted the oracle that is my friends sitting either side of me the most stereotypical food of Australia is the democracy sausage.

who doesn't want a piece of this

In Brazil the typical food in all the country is rice and beans, but each state has very different culinary and I don't like it very much.

  • In the south where I live we eat barbecue every week, that consist generically of bovine meat, chicken's heart and saveloy
  • Also there's the Xis, it's more or less like a hamburger pressed, but it can have any flavor of your option: vegetarian, strogonoff, fish, shrimp , chicken, pork loin, etc...

Pupusas are love! My faves are usually revueltas, or cheese. I haven't had any with loroco though. :/

And on the Puerto Rican side of things I love sorullitos de maiz.

They're just a finger food but go really great with ketchup & mayo.
 
Lupis Dei and CherubCookie already mentioned some stereotypical foods from Australia, but I will also add meat pies with "dead horse" (tomato sauce) and the smashed avocado on anything (which I don't think is as commonly eaten as the media portrays it).
