What you eat and drink... 

Where you do it...

What time you have something to eat or drink..

How you behave while you drink or eat...

How you cook...

Who you have a drink or eat with...

The answers to these questions tell a lot about you as an individual and a lot about the country to which you belong.  

Food is definitely an important part of culture. It influences a nation's cultural identity through family, traditions, religion...

Being curious about other contry's culture is great! That's why we enjoy going to the Chinese restaurant 🥢 , to the Italian for pizza 🍕, having some Sushi, going to McDonald's for some French fries 🍟, a Filet-o-Fish,  a chocolate sundae, a glass of coke... 🥤OOPS, I got carried away... 😄

Let me invite you to discover and visit some of the English speaking countries famous chefs, traditional dishes and drinks and delicious recipes! Just go to https://thislollipoplady.blogspot.com/p/gastronomy-love-affair-between-food-and.html

She lived in Bath, England. Nowadays we can find lollipopladies in The United Kingdom, Ireland and Australia.
