I love Kilgoretrout's idea of disposable cookware ... all except for my 3 beloved Woks of course .. having taken the time & trouble to "season" them properly and enjoying the flavour which that imparts to the food cooked in them, I'd be very loathe to lose them ... :D
The same applies to about 6 "favourite" knives, including my Chinese cleavers ..
But the rest of it is just "stuff" ..
I've never tried Korean food, which might be interesting .. neither have I tried any East European (unless you count Chicken Kiev & Beef Stroganoff) ..
I have tried Mexican food and wasn't impressed, though it was in a "Mexican" Restaurant, so was probably not truly representative of the "real" thing .. I have to say though that the Re-fried Beans resembled the sort of abortion my then Teen-aged Son used to leave in the bottoms of pans when we left him alone some weekends ...
