American food

Thanksgiving dinner


Vietnamese New Year's Eve dinner

Talking about American food, I will think about fast food and American Thanksgiving dinner. Because life in American always requires fast and convenient, fast food becomes so popular here. For example, you can find Mc Donald, KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and Burger King everywhere. I like McDonald's burger and KPC's popcorn chicken. American fast food taste different from my country like KFC in America is more salty than in Vietnam. American fast food also do not have so much vegetable inside burger or sandwich like Vietnamese fast food. I can find a shrimp burger easy in Vietnam, but I still cannot find it here yet.
Besides that, I am very impress with American Thanksgiving dinner, especially turkey. American families have a huge dinner on Thanksgiving day. It is no doubt that TV diet commercial is so popular after Thanksgiving day and winter break. A big dinner on that day is similar to Vietnamese New Year's Eve dinner, however we eat more vegetable. We will have 8 dishes or more, but half of dishes' recipes include vegetable. Vietnamese food is perhaps more healthy than American. And I notice that American definitely like going to the gym and dieting more than Vietnamese. I had a Thanksgiving dinner with my host family last year. I liked apple pie and mashed potato, and I thought turkey tasted kinda similar to chicken. Every country has their own cuisine, and its food represent to its culture and life style.
