I think Persian uses more eggplant and pomegranate, but that could have just been a quirk of the Persian restaurant I used to eat at in Toronto.

It seems to me that food from Morocco, through the rest of Arabia and into Afghanistan doesn't change much. Even Turkish food seems pretty similar. Am I just to ignorant to appreciate the distinct and significant differences?
