you first sit down in the restaurant,
the waiter brings you a bowl of tortilla
[tor-tee-ya] chips and salsa, free of
charge. A typical Mexican meal is burrito,
a big tortilla
stuffed with cheese and
your choice of meat
filling. You also get
Mexican rice and
beans with it. Yummy!
And yes, there are hamburgers. But
a proper hamburger is not what you
find at McDonald’s. The meat on a real
hamburger must be at least 2.5 cm thick,
and be served on a thick, soft homemade
bun. From there you can have what you
want on it, such as cheese, onions, and
ketchup. And if you don’t want French fries,
you can have onion rings - slices of onion
battered and fried to a golden brown.
So next time you think of American
food, don’t just think of McDonald’s, think
of the world. American food comes from
almost every country on Earth, and it
tastes great!

American eating habits
for many people American
food means only one thing
– Mcdonald’s. But American
food is more than fast
food. It is the ethnic food
that was brought to the
US by immigrants, such
as Italians, Mexicans, and
Greeks. And since almost
everyone in the US is from
somewhere else, there is a
lot of food to choose from!
