American Food

The food in American culture has a very large variety when it comes to walk in restaurants. Since america tends to be a huge mixing pot when it comes to cultures,  we have a wide range of foods.  We have Italian restaurants, Mexican, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, and more. Yes, we have many different choices of foods, but America doesn't exactly have a type of food of its own. Some people say that hamburgers, pizza, hot dogs, and macaroni and cheese are american foods, but many are from other places. Pizza and pasta come from Italy, and the hot dog from Germany.   The hamburger (a round patty of beef in between two bread buns, usually with lettuce, tomatoes and cheese. ) is one of the few foods that are truly American.   

Also fast foods ( pre-made food that is cheaply made, so customers can get it quick.) are huge in american culture. More than half of the population eat fast foods daily. Some even eat fast foods for each meal on a daily bases. This is causing big  problems with obesity and health in american people. Over one- third of Americans are overweight or obese because of the greasy unhealthy food that these fast food restaurants are serving.

So, to conclude what Americans culture when it comes to food. We tend to copy off of other counties food and culture and claiming it as our own. Some restaurants are more specific to the origin of the food they are severing, but sometimes we forget.  Also the food we eat tend to be unhealthy and cheaply made, makings over weight and have some pretty big health problems. Most Americans don't think twice about what there eating and accept the culture of "our" food
