American Food and Chinese Food

Before I came to the U.S., I already knew something about the American food because we can see KFC, McDonald's everywhere. Since every kind of food has the similar features, the differences between american food and chinese food are so obvious that can not be ignored.


The top three differences are as followings: the way we cook, the main food, and the sauce. In china we cook the vegetables, but americans always eat the vegetables directly as vegetables salad. In addition, the main foods for us are rice and noodles, with some dishes for every meal. The main foods for americans are hamburgers, salad and pizza. However, for me, i consider these kinds of food as snacks. Furthermore, in amercia we can buy all kinds of sauce already down when we cook our daily food. Even though we have a lot of sauce also, we lacks the big bottle of ketchup, barbecue sauce, and so on.

When i was in china, i liked the burger in KFC and McDonald's, but after i came here i found the burger is different from that of in china. I am nor sure that it is the food reason i got many weights, anyway, i already took some actions such as lowering intake dose of the fast food, eating little fried food and candies. Hope i can be recognized when i come back!

  1. You think KFC and McDonald's tastes different in the US? Hmm. . . Interesting. I never ate McDonald's or KFC when I lived in China. I only ate McD's ice cream cone when it got hot.

    It sounds like you've studied how to write a compare/contrast essay!
