First things first, there's no such thing as a unified "Mediterranean" cuisine. The med countries are wildly different from each other. If we look at them on a case-by-case basis, we have:
>French
The inventors of haute cuisine and the standard by which all other cuisines are measured. The French mog the rest of the world so hard it's unreal.
>Italian
Tasty fare that's usually easy to prepare and fairly cheap to boot. There's a reason they influenced so many cuisines across the world. Their deli meats are also S-tier.
>Greek
They have seven or so dishes that are absolutely incredible but the rest can be charitably described as an aquired taste. Some of their more esoteric dishes feel like something you'd eat in Denmark rather than a warm southern country. They have surprisingly good cheeses and sausages but the good stuff never leaves Greece so it doesn't really matter.
>Spain
Seafood galore, S-tier olive oil, and great roasts. Their deli meats are also good but nowhere near as good as the Italian stuff. Basically, Spain is store brand Italy outside of seafood.
>Turkish
A vegetarian's wet dream. It's extremely easy to find delicious meat-free food in Turkish cuisine. Their desserts are also kino.
>Nafri
Wild use of spices to the point where they overpower most dishes, but some would say that's the point.

My analysis is 200% accurate and anyone who disagrees with me is a mega faggot.
