 Eating and food
Food is national and international. Many people like their
own national dishes and a variety of foreign ones. You can
find European and Oriental restaurants in most large
cosmopolitan cities. You can find Italian, French, Chinese,
and Mexican restaurants in New York, Washington, San
Francisco, and many other cities in the United States. You
might also find Greek, Middle Eastern, and “soul food”
(black American) restaurants in some cities in the U.S. as
well.

potatoes, eggs, bread, soup, meat, vegetables, milk, fruit
and other basic foods. People cook them differently in the
United States, Brazil, India, Thailand, Sweden, Japan,
Germany, and in all different countries.

People all over the world also prefer different things to
drink. They drink a lot of tea in England and lot of wine in
France. Americans prefer coffee, milk or soda. German
beer is now completely international.

or four dishes: hamburgers and French fries, hot dogs,
fried chicken, and ice cream.
