I dunno. I had Panang curry in Thailand and it tasted exactly the same.

Thai food has all kinds of influences and changes as much as American food.

I was in Bangkok last year and Thai food there was amazing. Unlike American Thai food, it was savory rather than sweet, and had a kind of oomph that I've not experienced anywhere in the U.S. outside of San Francisco (Thai food in SF is pretty good).

American Thai food is trending sweeter by the year and getting less and less edible [1] for people without a sweet tooth like me.
