10 Recipes That Defined the 2000s — Recipes of the Decade





This week we've been looking at the recipes and foods that defined the past decades, starting with the 60s. Today we're tackling the 2000s.

Depending on what you're eating, you probably washed it all down with green tea, Pepsi Twist or some kind of energy drink.


What are your favorite recipes from the 2000s? Here are the ten we think really defined the decade.
