Eating Well: Recipe
North America is an extremely diverse culture. Some call it a melding pot, because many people immigrated to the continent from other cultures. The Mexican people have a more close culture, as their ancestors passed down the “old ways” successfully to the younger generation. The United States is extremely diverse, with older traditions staying in the east and newer traditions popping up in the west.
Traditional Mexican food has been handed down through generations of family members. It was created by using the available resources, which means that many of the dishes are very spicy. This is because spices were always plentiful in Mexico. Spanish rice is familiar to most. It is a dish created by blending garlic, tomatoes, onions and a few other spices in with white rice. Chicken is popular in the southern area of Mexico, while beef is the main protein in the northern area. Both areas make a version of burritos. This meal is a filing one that uses thin tortilla’s as a base. Some put rice in the tortilla, others put meat, and still some use leftover beans as a way to be economical. Burritos had their start as a way to eat food cheaply and easily, but have now become extremely popular in many parts of the world.
Food in the United States is as diverse as the geography and the people that live here. Each region has its particular style of cooking or special dish, and each dish has a history that intertwines with both the geography and people. But many Americans have the bad habit of eating on the go, especially in the car. It's known for unhealthy but tasty menu items. Depending on the chain, you can get practically anything from a fast-food restaurant, including tacos, hamburgers, Chinese food,and salad. Restaurants with drive-through windows are everywhere. That’s why you can always look for blue information signs with white lettering on the shoulder of the highway to see what fast food fare is available at the next exit.
