 Activity 16

Food and us
Please tell us about food in your countries.
What do people usually eat? What kind of things do you like to eat?

Arjun

Hi. I’m from India. A lot of people in

India don’t eat any beef. We eat lots
of vegetables and we usually have
some rice and some bread with every
meal. After we eat, we like to have
some fruit, too. Bananas are my
favorite. Western food is popular
here, of course, and young people
especially like to eat burgers, and
that kind of thing. They aren’t
hamburgers because they don’t have
any meat inside. They have
vegetables inside, so they’re vegetable burgers!
Lena
In Austria, our food is very international.
Chinese, Turkish, Indian and Italian restaurants
are all popular. The big meal of the day is lunch,
but for something quick, try an Austrian
sandwich – It’s cheap, too. We eat lots of meat,
rice and vegetables. For dinner, I usually have
something easy-meat, bread and cheese. Of
course, we have some great desserts, too. Do
you know that Austrians like cake? In Vienna, we
are famous for our chocolate cake!
Read the information and complete the statements.
1 In......................., there are some great dessert.
2 Arjun likes to eat some.......................after a meal.

HEALTHY EATING

Do you want to be healthy? Perhaps you need to go on a diet. Start the day by
drinking a glass of water or orange juice … but no coffee or tea, and no milk or
sugar, please!

For lunch, don’t eat any fried foods …. French fries, or burgers, for example ….
Some grilled fish, perhaps with some green vegetables, is really good for you!
Do you want some pasta for lunch? OK, but don’t put any cheese or tomato sauce
on top! Don’t eat any desserts which contain cream, butter or chocolate!

If you are still hungry, eat some fruit, or have some nuts – they’re really healthy!
And to drink…. Just water! It’s hasn’t got any calories so you can drink as much as
you want. For dinner, have some soup and bread. (But remember- no butter!) It’s
simple …but delicious.
