Homework #4

My eating habits are very very different from my grandparents. My grandparents are very traditional Cuban people. They love to eat the "classic" Cuban meals like pork with rice and beans, plantains, and tostones. When my grandparents cook they have the obligation to make sure that every person is completely full to the point where they cant even take another bite. From time to time they do go out for fast food, but i've never seen them go to a restaurant. My other grandmother would have the the "classic" Italian meals where you would have a 3 course dinner. First you would have the Italian appetizers which felt like a meal to its self, you would have the Italian dry sausage with dried tomatoes, many different cheeses and bread. After that you have the main course, then would come the dessert which has all of the Italian pastries.  To leave any food on your plate would be considered an insult to them, and burping after you ate would be a complement. My grandmother never really liked going out for fast food, but she did like to go to restaurants.

My parents eating habits are similar but not the same as mines. If i had to put it in a way they would be a mixture of both my eating habits and my grandparents. They don't eat out as much as i do but they eat out more then my grandparents do. Unlike my grandparents they aren't so tied down to one ethnic meal. When my mother cooks she would make many many different things. Like Pasta one night then matzo ball soup the other. She cooks based on what we are in the mood for may it be sushi or anything else different.  It is very multicultural meals. We also cook on what is easy for that time.

My eating habits are "normal". Which involves fast food, multicultural, and what ever i want at that time. When i was little my eating habits were horrible i would hate to eat and i would only have mac n cheese, or pizza, literally thats all i would eat. As i grew up my eating habits got a lot better. I use to be a picky picky eater and now i like almost all meals. I now have a salad with every mean and have the basic food groups that i need to complete a meal. I love to eat at restaurants more then anything.
