They wanted specifically tortillas though I’d never made a tortilla in my life. It’s true I had witnessed my mother rolling the little armies of dough...” (105).

While Burger King and McDonald’s both have the same types of foods, each of them are very different at the same time. For starters I will start out by saying that each place cooks their burgers differently. Burger King Flame broils their burgers. The burgers get placed on a rolling rack, that rolls them through a fire and by the time they get to the end of the rack the burgers are ready to be made into a sandwich. McDonald’s grills their
Mexican food is rich in flavors, and you would not believe how delicious it can be when you are eating it. Another point is how the Mexican people can act. Mexican people are polite, kind, and very friendly. If you do not speak Spanish, they would try
In and Out: Hamburgers are no more “Fast Foods.” Description A hamburger is one of the most popular foods in the world. No matter with gender, age, nationality, or social status, many people like to eat hamburgers not only because of its taste but also because of its availability. Most hamburgers franchises represent “fast food” because customers can get hamburgers as soon as they order them. However, the quality of the “fast food” is considered as unhealthy because most popular hamburger franchises use ingredients with very low quality in order to provide hamburgers to consumers quickly with low prices. However, a hamburger franchise called In and Out breaks out of the stereotypical characteristics of hamburger franchises.
With this tradition it is somewhat different from others, because it has a slightly different significance than to the Americans.

I know that if you eat too much acidic food than you can get wicked bad heart burn to the point it feels like your heart is on fire. This movie would definitely change how I eat at Mcdonalds!, no more chicken nuggets for me after I saw how they made them. Morgan had started to have very bad chest pains once he started to eat all of the Mcdonalds in one month. It was hard to believe that there were seventeen different Mcdonalds in New York City in that little town. People say that it is Mcdonalds fault for them gaining weight, but what they don’t understand is that they have the choice wether they should eat it or not, or even how much they eat.
I do feel pressure to improve my Spanish because in our culture we often have these huge gatherings where our distant relatives get together and I can barely communicate with them. I am more into the food in my culture. I could eat Cuban food everyday if possible; I love beans and rice, pork, and plantains. I feel like I’ve been eating that type of food since I was a baby, my sister’s dislike any type of Spanish food and opt for cheeseburgers. Although I eat like a Cuban I don’t particularly identify myself as one.
American Regional (summer 2011) Week 7 Project Cuisine of the Southwestern United States is food styled after the rustic cooking of the Southwestern United States. It is also known to be very popular in the west coast state of California. It comprises a fusion of recipes for things that might have been eaten by Spanish colonial settlers, cowboys, Native Americans, and Mexicans throughout the post-Columbian era; there is, however, a great diversity in this kind of cuisine throughout the Southwestern states. Southwestern cuisine is similar to Mexican cuisine but often involves larger cuts of meat, and less use of tripe, brain, and other parts not considered as desirable in the United States. Like Mexican cuisine, it is also known for its use of spices and accompaniment with beans (frijoles), cooked in a variety of manners.
You could say that corn and beans are the two main foods of indiginous Mexicans, and much of Mexican cuisine is based on these two ingredients. There's something interestings to think about here. That is, corn and beans have "complimentary amino acids." Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, which the body absolutely needs.
