How Do You Think of American Food?
Roza:When I came to the U.S.A.,I was inspired:a new country,new life,new people,new language and new food.When we went to Safeway for the first time,we were shocked.There was a huge assortment of groceries,a wide choice of dairy products,and seafood.In Russia we bought the same groceries and at the store there was not such a big assortment.In America we were confused because we couldn't read.We bought bread-it was salty,sweet and sour.In Russia,there are not too many restaurants.That's why people cook and eat at home.I never ate trout(鳟鱼) before in Russia.In America I can buy and cook it when I want.
Cherry:I came from Thailand and most Thai food is spicy.I don't know why we always eat spicy food,but it's good for our health because Thai food has a lot of herbs.It burns calories so it doesn't make you fat.We never use cheese,butter or something like that to cook.When we're eating in restaurants,we order the food and eat it together.We must share everything on the table.We don't eat separately like Americans because it is very impolite in Thailand.
Alicia:My eating habits have changed very much since I arrived in America.In my country I didn't like to eat vegetables and now I have to,because most of the American food has vegetables,but most of the food has more fat too.Here in America I tried Chinese food,because I'd never eaten it before,and it was delicious.Another change was that now I go to restaurants twice a week,something that I didn't do in Argentina.I don't have a favorite restaurant.I go everywhere trying new food.
