Answer:

D.

People from different cultures have more in common than they realize.

Step-by-step explanation:

A theme is a central idea or universal truth explored in a piece of writing. In this passage, Raul finds out that he enjoys eating Russian pelmeni, even though he is not used to eating food from other cultures. Additionally, Nesky learns that many cultures make dumplings similar to his mother's pierogis. One theme of this passage is "People from different cultures have more in common than they realize."
