Isn’t it amazing how much time we spend talking about food?” Have you ever eaten… ?” “What did you have for lunch” and so on And yet when you travel from one country to another, you find that people have quite different feelings about food People often feel that what they eat is normal, and that what other people eat is strange or silly In most parts of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice In England, people eat potatoes every day In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal Eating, like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change American like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee The English drink tea four or five times everyday Australians drink large amounts of beer, and the French drink wine every day
The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat The Japanese don’t like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish
