Topic number 17: Food....

Eating habits in Slovakia.
In Slovakia a typical day starts with breakfast. Between breakfast and lunch we usually have a snack. At midday we have lunch. Later we can have a snack again. In the evening, we eat dinner......

1.) BREAKFAST. The typical breakfast in Slovakia consists of a slice of bread with butter, ham, cheese or jam with a cup of tea or coffee... Some people like sausages or rolls. Some people prefer healthy breakfast/light breakfast. For example cereals (Cornflakes, Chocapic or Nestle) with yoghurt... They drink fruit juice....
Breakfast is very important, because it gives us energy for the start of the day......

2.) SNACK. We usually have a snack between breakfast and lunch. and we eat it at school or at work... Children and students usually bring their snack from home, or they buy it in the school buffet.... As a snack people usually have a sandwich with ham or cheese, fruit, a chocolate bar or some sweets......

3.) LUNCH. Lunch is the main meal that we have during the day.... We eat our lunch at midday. Some people have their lunch at work, at school in canteen or they wait and eat their lunch, when they come home..... Our lunch usually has 2 courses:
at first) Soup. For example:
Stock, meat soup, tomato soup, vegetable soup and so on.....
at second) Main meal. In Slovakia we usually have meat with potatoes or rice and some vegetables. In some families, people have lunch together. In Slovakia people always have lunch together at Christmas......
We can have these things in our main meal:
Meat. (types of meat: chicken. beef. pork. lamb. fish. tuna. salmon......
With meat we eat for example: potatoes. French fries. Rice. Dumplings. Pasta, Salad......
If you are looking for vegetables, there is always cabbage, often in front of sauerkraut.......

4.) DINNER. In Slovakia it´s not very common to cook dinner. We usually cook lunch and most people eat for dinner what they had for lunch. Some people just have a snack. For example: rolls, a cake with milk or tea and so on.......

My favourite food are pancakes with chocolate, whipped cream and curd........

If you want to eat, you have number of options.
The best one is to cook by yourself or by someone who lives with you...
Most parents prepare snack for their kids. But some parents like to give them money, so they can buy whatever they want. It can be not only unhealthy food, but also more expansive than food packaged at home....
For lunch children can use services of school´s canteen. It´s cheap and there is a quite good quality of food....

Though many kids buy lunch in fast food. Fast food is the term given to food that can be prepared and served very quickly. Fast food is very popular especially with young people. For example McDonalds’, KFC and so on... Fast food restaurants sell hamburgers, cheeseburgers, ice cream, chicken with chips, sweet fizzy drinks....
This food usually contains too many calories and oil, and is too heavy for our stomach... But it´s tasty and easily accessible and many people like it. It is also quite expensive, but for many people it´s a comfortable way of eating because they are busy, and they don’t have time to cook, or wait in a restaurant for lunch. They can just buy a hamburger in a fast food restaurant, carry it with them and eat it when they have time....
Nowadays many fast food restaurants have a drive-in. It means you can buy food while you are sitting in your car......

Many people like to eat at the restaurants because it´s very comfortable. But if you do it every day, it´s expansive. In addition, there is a big possibility that your food is unhealthy. So you better watch out you don´t eat your main meal just in a restaurant.....
We also know take out/take away. It´s food served to the customer in a packaged form......

Potato Dumplings (Halushky)

Ingredients: 750g potatoes, 2 cups flour, salt....
Prep time: 25 minutes....

Halushky are what really defines Slovak cuisine. The name is typically translated to English as potato dumplings, but this is not quite right. Halušky are just that, halushky. Potato dumplings, in Slovak, are zemiakové kned¾e. Halušky are somewhat similar to German spätzle. You can top them with just about anything. The most typical topping is bryndza, a special sheep cheese, and fried bacon bits. This combination gives you bryndzové halushky, the Slovak national dish......

Peel two large potatoes and shred them using a fine food grater. Also salt water in a large pot and bring to boil. Pour out as much water as you can without dumping out any of the potatoes. Add salt and two cups of flour. Mix well.....
I have good luck making them with just the regular all-purpose flour. You can experiment with different types if you would like to make the dumplings softer or harder..... Place the dough on a wooden board. Then using a knife, toss the halushky into boiling salted water. Smaller, the better. Boil for few more minutes and scoop out with a large perforated spoon. Top with bryndza or serve with chicken paprikash..........

2.) GREAT BRITAIN.
British food has traditionally been based on beef, lamb, pork, chicken and fish and generally served with potatoes and one other vegetable.

Some of our main dishes have strange names like Bubble & Squeak, and Toad-in-the-Hole......

Christmas dinner in the United Kingdom is usually eaten in the afternoon on the 25th of December.......

Diets and vegetarians.
1.) Diets. Especially young girls often go on a diet, because they want to be slim and attractive. Too much dieting is not healthy, but it can be dangerous to health. Nowadays many young girls become seriously ill, because they want to loose weight and be as slim as famous models. Such illnesses are for example: anorexia, bulimia and so on........

2.) Vegetarians. Vegetarians are people who don’t eat meat or fish. They eat only vegetable products like grains or fruit. People become vegetarians because they think it´s more healthy, or for moral reasons. For example because they don’t like the cruel treatment of animals, so they protest in this form... Vegetarians are less ill. They don’t suffer from the heart attack so often. Because it´s more healthy to eat vegetable products than to eat meat........

3.) Vegans. Vegans are people who don’t eat any animal products at all. They don’t eat meat, fish, cheese, milk, eggs - Nothing that comes from animals...
