Create Alternate cuisines and the point of divergence that created it or made it go through a different path.
It might be intresting if Christianity would ban pork.
Or then pig never become dirty animal in Middle Eastern cultures.
Pasta never gets popular in Italy (or, even if it does gets there, it remains a fairly niche regionalist delicacy). This by itself changes a lot. I shiver just to imagine this dystopian hellscape without pizza or lasagna.
Alternate beverage preferences can be conceived too perhaps. Beer or wine being more popular in Russia or (vice-versa) vodka effectively penetrating into Germanic Scandinavia are interesting possibilities. Or Asiatic rice-based beverages gain traction in the Americas (in Brazil this could work perhaps. Nowadays we have a large consumption of sake).
It is thought that the rising popularity of pasta in Italy was responsible for the widespread adoption of the fork, a previously known but little used tool in Europe. So no pasta might mean European cuisine is vastly different as the food culture is developed for the utensil.
Similarly people say Indians don’t use utensils. But actually the naan bread is the utensil for eating stews. That meant the bread had to be a certain shape. If the Indians had adopted fork or chopsticks, the bread would be allowed to take on more varied forms.
