1
Well, hello and welcome to this English lesson about food.
2
I've done lessons about food in the past, and it is, I think, one of the most requested topics.
3
So I thought it would be fun to do another English lesson about food.
4
I have done a few other ones.
5
You can go back and watch those someday.
6
But in this English lesson about food, I'll talk about different ways to talk about preparing food.
7
I'll talk about where you prepare food.
8
I'll talk about what food tastes like a little bit.
9
And I'll talk about different ways to cook food or prepare food.
10
So once again, welcome to this English lesson about food.
11
I think you'll enjoy it.
12
To make or to prepare?
13
When you talk about food, you don't.
14
Well, if it's an apple, you can just eat it.
15
You don't have to do anything to the apple.
16
But sometimes you need to make food or you need to prepare food.
17
This coming weekend is Thanksgiving in Canada.
18
It's a holiday, and so people will be going to other people's houses to celebrate and to eat food.
19
That's what most people do when you celebrate.
20
So some people might need to make food or they might need to prepare food.
21
We use both words interchangeably.
22
If people were coming to my house, I would say, oh, I need to make food because my brothers and sisters are coming over.
23
I need to prepare food.
24
Now, I didn't add this to the lesson, but you can also order food.
25
Maybe instead of making food, you just order food from a restaurant so that you don't have to make it.
26
But when you eat, like if you want a sandwich, you have to make a sandwich.
27
You have to prepare a sandwich before you can eat it.
28
And you do this in one of two places.
29
You can do it in a kitchen or a kitchenette.
30
This might be a new word for you.
31
I'll explain it in a moment.
32
A kitchen is the room in the house where you prepare food or make food.
33
It's also the room in the house where you store food.
34
You put food in your cupboards.
35
You put food in your refrigerator.
36
You put food in your freezer.
37
This is where you keep food and make or prepare food and then also clean up after you have eaten.
38
You have to do the dishes or wash the dishes.
39
A kitchenette is a small kitchen usually found in maybe an apartment or most often in a hotel room.
40
When you stay in a hotel room, it might have a kitchenette.
41
A kitchenette usually doesn't have a big stove or oven.
42
It usually has a little microwave, a sink, and then a little tiny fridge.
43
If you look and see the black thing under the counter, that is a small refrigerator.
44
And then usually a coffee maker.
45
I don't see a kettle, but most of the time a kitchenette will have a kettle as well.
46
So a kitchen found in a house or apartment, a large ish room where you can make or prepare food and keep all your food.
47
And then a kitchenette, a smaller area.
48
When Jen and I travel, if we stay in a hotel, we try to get a hotel with a kitchenette so we can prepare our own food to save a little bit of money.
49
Ingredients.
50
So when you want to make something, you need ingredients.
51
If I want to make bread, the ingredients I need are flour, water, salt, butter, or oil and yeast.
52
I think those are the ingredients for making bread.
53
Sometimes when you make things, it's far more complex.
54
You need to have ten or eleven ingredients in order to make it.
55
I'm not sure what this person is making, but it looks like they have all of their ingredients cut up and ready to go.
56
So I think they're gonna make maybe a little stir fry or something like that. I'm not sure.
57
But ingredients are the individual food items you need that you can combine to make something yummy.
58
And you do that using a recipe.
59
Now, maybe the recipe is in your head.
60
Maybe when you make pancakes or when you make a meal for your family, you don't follow a recipe like this one.
61
You in your head, know, cook this for this long, mix this in, dice this a certain way.
62
You need two cups of this.
63
But a recipe would be written instructions or instructions you have memorized on how to prepare a certain food item.
64
The recipe for bread is to mix all the ingredients and to knead the dough.
65
Let the dough rise.
66
Knead the dough again, let it rise.
67
And then bake it in the oven.
68
But a recipe would be written.
69
Instructions for how to make something.
70
I'm always looking for new recipes.
71
I like trying new food, and it's fun to follow a new recipe and make something new or prepare something new.
72
And usually you will find recipes in a recipe book.
73
Sometimes people will have recipes on little cards, like a recipe card.
74
It's a small piece of paper about this size.
75
But most of the recipes that Jen and I use are in recipe books.
76
Sometimes we'll buy a new recipe book and we'll try making different types of food using that recipe book.
77
Um, we don't have one called our family recipes. My.
78
Yeah. You know, if my sister gave me recipes, they would be amazing.
79
But I don't have a lot to say about the rest of my family, actually, my older brother might have some good recipes as well.
80
He's a pretty good cook.
81
So let's talk a little bit about that.
82
When you have food and you heat the food, we usually use the verb to cook.
83
So you cook food.
84
And this is kind of a general term.
85
If people are coming over, I need to cook some food.
86
Okay. I need to put it in a pan.
87
I'll talk about the different ways that you can cook or prepare food, but generally, cook refers to using heat to prepare the food so that it is edible, so that it is yummy and tasty.
88
So this person has decided to cook some sort of pasta dish.
89
That is the verb, the general term that we use when talking about cooking, cooking or preparing food with heat.
90
So over a fire or on the oven or in the oven or on the stove or even on a barbecue, you can cook some food.
91
And then after you do this, the food is cooked.
92
And this is an interesting word as well, because sometimes you'll say, oh, I don't think this food is completely cooked.
93
If you don't cook food long enough, it can be undercooked.
94
So when you cook food, when you're done, the food is cooked.
95
So you could say this, oh, I cooked a lot of food.
96
You know, the more I say this word, the funnier it sounds to be.
97
I cooked a lot of food because I have a lot of people coming over to eat today.
98
And this is the opposite of raw.
99
Some food you eat raw.
100
When you eat something raw, it means that it is not cooked at all.
101
We eat bananas, raw carrots, a lot of vegetables.
102
You can eat raw.
103
You don't eat meat raw, although you can eat some seafood raw.
104
But usually when we talk about raw food, we talk about food that you can eat without cooking or food that is uncooked.
105
Okay, let me explain that a bit.
106
These are raw vegetables.
107
You can eat these.
108
You can also have raw meat, which means it has not been cooked and needs to be cooked.
109
Okay, so you can eat raw vegetables, but you should definitely cook raw meat before you eat it.
110
Yummy. By the way, in this picture, my most favorite item would be the peppers. I like peppers.
111
Green peppers are yummy.
112
I enjoy eating them. Okay.
113
A couple of different ways.
114
You can use heat to prepare food so you can cook food.
115
The general term, you can also bake food.
116
So when I think about baking, I usually think about cookies, muffins, bread.
117
Those are the kinds of things we bake.
118
You follow a recipe you like.
119
I said, with bread, you do everything you need to do, and then you bake it in an oven.
120
So generally when you bake something, I think it's usually something made with flour.
121
You could do a casserole as well.
122
But when I think of baking, like, I think last night, one of my kids baked some cookies.
123
This weekend I might bake some bread.
124
When I think about pizza, though, I would probably use cook.
125
I'm going to cook a pizza in the oven.
126
You might say bake.
127
But generally, I think of this kind of food.
128
When I think about bake, fry, deep fry, air fry.
129
Let's back up to fry.
130
When you fry something, the first thing I think of is an egg.
131
I think of a frying pan.
132
So a frying pan is a very low pan.
133
And generally we fry things like this.
134
Like you might fry an egg for breakfast, you might fry some bacon.
135
You might fry a grilled cheese sandwich, even though it has the word grill in it.
136
But generally, anytime you use this type of pan, we almost always use the verb fry.
137
So I haven't eaten yet today.
138
I actually ate way too much food last night, so I'm not even hungry.
139
But if I was to eat later, I would probably fry an egg.
140
There's something also called to deep fry.
141
When you deep fry something, you have hot oil and you put the food in the oil in order to cook it.
142
In order to prepare it.
143
When I think about deep frying, I think of things like french friesen.
144
French fries are made from potatoes, and then you deep fry them in oil in order to cook them.
145
It makes food very, very crispy.
146
You can also deep fry fish.
147
I think these might be chicken wings.
148
So last night I actually had some chicken wings at a restaurant.
149
They were very, very yummy.
150
But they would be deep fried, basically, really, really hot oil, 350 degrees fahrenheit or 400 degrees fahrenheit.
151
And you put the food in it and it cooks.
152
It cooks the food very, very quickly.
153
And there's something called to air fry.
154
Now you can buy an air fryer and you can air fry your food.
155
It's supposed to be healthier than deep frying your food.
156
We don't have an air fryer, but people we know who have air fryers say they are amazing.
157
It allows you to cook meat or even french fries and other things so that it tastes like you deep fried it, but not, but without all of the oil that comes with it.
158
So maybe someday.
159
The biggest problem with a de, an air fryer is they're not very big.
160
And we still prepare food.
161
We make food for a lot of people.
162
As you know, I have five kids.
163
I still have two living at home right now.
164
And so we have to prepare rather large meals.
165
You can also barbecue or grill.
166
This is very common in Canada in the spring and the summer and fall.
167
It's less common in the winter.
168
But there are people who will barbecue in the winter.
169
They don't mind standing outside wearing a winter coat and a winter hat and cooking food on a barbecue.
170
So by the way, you could call this a barbecue.
171
This type you could also call a grill.
172
And it also works as the verb, I'm going to barbecue some hamburgers.
173
I'm going to grill some hamburgers.
174
I'm going to barbecue some hot dogs.
175
I'm going to grill some hot dogs.
176
When I visited Brent last summer, we went to his brother's place, and his brother barbecued some food for us, and it was very, very yummy. Roast.
177
So when you cook meat in an oven, we usually use the word roast.
178
And this piece of meat here is actually called a roast as well.
179
So don't get too confused.
180
But I could buy a piece of meat and I could roast it in the oven.
181
So I'm going to put it on a pan or in a pan, depending on how you like to do it.
182
And then you put it in the oven at a certain temperature, and then you roast it.
183
So, yes, and this, that is actually also called a roast.
184
Roast beef.
185
You can boil food.
186
So when I think about boiling food, you can boil eggs, you can boil noodles, you can boil rice.
187
Anytime you put food into water that is boiling in order to cook it, we use the word boil.
188
So when water gets to 100 degrees celsius or 212 degrees fahrenheit, I think it starts to bubble and steam comes off it.
189
By the way, it depends where you are.
190
I think at sea level, water boils at 100 degrees.
191
Again, this is not a science lesson, but I do know about boiling food.
192
So you heat water up in a pan when it starts to boil or even before, but when it starts to boil, maybe you put in noodles or you put in rice or however you cook things, and then you boil it for a certain amount of time and it will be cooked and ready to eat.
193
We mostly boil noodles, and sometimes we boil eggs.
194
Those are the two things that we boil the most often.
195
You can also steam food.
196
Jen and I haven't done this for a while, but we used to steam broccoli or we would steam rice.
197
These are yummy looking dumplings.
198
You can steam them as well.
199
This means you are cooking the food with steam.
200
So when water boils, steam rises from the water as it boils, and that steam is very, very hot.
201
And you can use that steam to cook things.
202
So you basically have a pan of boiling water, and then you might have another little pan that goes in the top of that pan and the steam comes through and cooks things.
203
Steamed broccoli is quite yummy. Actually.
204
Steamed vegetables are really good.
205
We should find our steamer. We have a.
206
We have a little rice cooker food steamer.
207
We should find that somewhere because that is a yummy, yummy way to cook food.
208
And then, of course, sometimes you cook food for too long, and then food is burnt.
209
So this toast is burnt.
210
It was in the toaster for too long, and so it started to turn black.
211
So this is a burnt piece of toast.
212
We also sometimes have food that's overdone or overcooked.
213
I'm not going to say who, but as a child, when I had cooked vegetables, they were often the person making them, often overcooked them.
214
I like my green beans.
215
Usually we boil beans.
216
That's another thing we boil.
217
I usually boil them for two or three minutes, and they're still quite bright green and a little bit crunchy.
218
These beans, in my opinion, are a little bit overdone.
219
They're a little bit overcooked.
220
Whoever made these beans cooked them for too long, in my opinion.
221
Some people like their beans to be a pale green like that, but not me.
222
I like things to be cooked just right.
223
And I don't think I have a slide for this.
224
But you can also have food that's undercooked.
225
So overcooked means you cooked it for too long.
226
Undercooked means you didn't cook it long enough.
227
So you might say, oh, this pasta is.
228
Isn't soft, it's undercooked.
229
Or this boiled egg isn't fully cooked inside, it's undercooked.
230
Okay, let's talk briefly about the types of meals.
231
In the morning, you eat breakfast around the middle of the day.
232
You eat lunch.
233
At night, you have either supper or dinner, depending on what part of the English speaking world you live in.
234
We use both words, like, what time do you want to have supper?
235
What time do you want to have dinner?
236
And then you can also have a snack and a pick me up.
237
So let's go back to the beginning.
238
Breakfast is the food you eat in the morning.
239
It's actually a combination of two words, break and fasten.
240
A fast is when you don't eat food for a certain amount of time.
241
Some people fast because they would like to lose weight.
242
Some people fast for religious reasons.
243
Maybe you fast for a day or two for religious reasons.
244
And then breakfast is actually two words, break fast to break your fast.
245
So basically you don't eat at night because you're sleeping.
246
So it's kind of a fasting state.
247
The opposite of eating is fasting.
248
And so when you get up in the morning, you have breakfast in order to stop that.
249
So that's where that word came from.
250
Typical breakfast in Canada would include eggs, maybe bacon, toast, bagels.
251
We don't. Besides bacon, maybe sausage, like meats.
252
Not a super popular food for breakfast, but also people will go through a drive through, so they might get a coffee, they might eat a donut for breakfast, although that's considered unhealthy and people try to avoid that.
253
Probably the most common fast food at breakfast from a restaurant would be a breakfast sandwich.
254
So an egg with bacon and cheese, maybe on a biscuit or on an English muffin.
255
I don't want to go into too many details.
256
For me, a typical breakfast might be some oatmeal, maybe some cereal, an egg, maybe some toast.
257
Although lately I don't eat breakfast as often as I used to. Lunch.
258
Lunch is the meal that you eat in the middle of the day.
259
You might pack a lunch in the morning and take it to school or work with you, or you might buy lunch.
260
You might go out for lunch with some colleagues.
261
A colleague might say, hey, you want to go for lunch at 1230?
262
And you'll say, sure.
263
By the way, you can go out for lunch or go for lunch.
264
Here in Canada, lunch often consists of sandwiches.
265
People will get bread and they will put, you know, lettuce or tomato.
266
If they eat meat, they might put some sort of meat on the bread, they might have peanut butter, they might have jam.
267
But sandwiches are still a fairly common item to eat for lunch.
268
Something that's made with bread and something that you can eat quickly and on the go, and it's easy to take with you as well.
269
And then supper or dinner.
270
So this is probably one of the bigger meals of the day.
271
This is the meal that might take the longest to prepare.
272
In Canada, people eat a variety of foods for supper or for dinner.
273
They might eat something where they have meat, potatoes, if they're vegetarian.
274
They might have beans, they might have hummus, they might have pizza, they might have hamburgers, they might have.
275
I can't think of.
276
They might have soup, they might have stew, they might have fresh bread with cheese.
277
There's just a variety of things that people eat for dinner.
278
And a common question would be, what would you like for dinner?
279
That's something you hear quite often, even at work.
280
Someone might say, what are you, what are you having for dinner tonight?
281
I need some ideas for what I want to make.
282
And the other person might say, oh, we're having spaghetti, or we're having lasagna, or we're having soup because it's getting colder here.
283
So soup will become much more common.
284
And then a snack.
285
A snack is just something you eat between meals.
286
So if there are three meals in the day, if that's how you like to eat breakfast, lunch, and supper, maybe in the middle of the morning, you get a little bit hungry.
287
So you have a snack, maybe a cookie, maybe a granola bar, maybe a banana, maybe an apple.
288
You might have a healthy snack.
289
But a snack is just a little bit of food in the middle of the day because you're feeling a little bit hungry.
290
Um, it might be coffee time at work.
291
Some people have a coffee break in the morning, and so they might have a cup of tea or a cup of coffee and a little snack.
292
And then there's also something called a pick me up, which is, it's a snack that you eat when you need some energy.
293
Yesterday, Jen and I were selling flowers at market and we worked for about 3 hours without eating and we didn't have time to stop for supper, but we needed a little pick me up, so I.
294
I went and bought a couple empanadas and we ate them.
295
So it wasn't like a full meal, but it was something that just helped us to feel better and get a little bit of food in our stomachs.
296
Groceries, this is a general term for the food that you buy.
297
And even to the point where we call the store where you buy groceries, a grocery store.
298
So I regularly go to the grocery store.
299
We sometimes call it a supermarket.
300
I go there to buy groceries.
301
So when you go to a clothing store, you go to buy clothes.
302
When you need food, you go buy groceries.
303
You go to a grocery store or supermarket.
304
Our grocery stores have almost everything.
305
In Canada, there's a produce section where they have fruit and vegetables.
306
There's a bakery.
307
Usually in the grocery store, there's canned food, food in boxes, there's milk, there's frozen food.
308
Everything you want for eating is found in a grocery store.
309
And pretty, I was going to say pretty reasonably priced.
310
Although food has gotten quite expensive here in Canada recently.
311
In the last year or two, someone who loves food is called a foodie.
312
I think we talked about this word in a previous lesson.
313
If you know someone who loves to cook and is really good at it and they love to go out to eat and they're always talking about food, we might call that person a foodie.
314
Someone who really, really enjoys eating food, talking about food, watching videos about food, making food, definitely talking about food would be a big one.
315
And then, of course, when you are done eating, you have to do the dishes or wash the dishes.
316
You can use either term.
317
You might do the dishes by hand in the sink.
318
You might wash the dishes by hand, you might put the dishes in the dishwasher and which we still might use the phrase do the dishes, but we might just say we need to clean up and put the dishes in the dishwasher.
319
When I think of doing the dishes, I actually think about scrubbing and rinsing and drying the dishes.
320
If food is sour, it's like when you eat a lemon.
321
Lemons are sour.
322
It makes you make a face like that.
323
It's a little different than bittereen.
324
Bitter means like cabbage is kind of bitter.
325
So if a lemon is sour, cabbage is bitter.
326
Some raw vegetables are a little bit bitter.
327
I would say sour and bitter are closely related.
328
But if you think about it, I would say a lemon is sour.
329
Cabbage is bitter.
330
Sometimes if you harvest vegetables too early, they will be bitter, which means they don't have as much natural sugar in them as they normally would.
331
And then, of course, we have sweet, which means something has a lot of sugar in it.
332
I like candies.
333
I like brownies.
334
This is a brownie.
335
We would call that. I like cookies.
336
Those are all things that are very sweet.
337
As I mentioned last night, one of my kids made cookies, chocolate chip cookies.
338
They used white sugar, brown sugar, chocolate chips.
339
It's a very sweet thing to eat.
340
And then, of course, there are things that are salty.
341
So chips, pretzels, popcorn, all of these have salt put on them and, or have a lot of salt in them.
342
And so they are very, very salty.
343
In Canada, we use the word spicy and hot and spicy can mean two different things, and hot could mean two different things.
344
If I say something is spicy, I might mean that it has a lot of pepper in it and it's actually like, burns my mouth when I say something is hot.
345
It can mean it has a lot of peppers and stuff in it, or it can simply mean the food has been cooked and it's steaming because it's hot.
346
But I'm not someone who eats a lot of spicy or hot food.
347
There are a lot of foods from other countries, like indian food can be described as very spicy and it can be hot.
348
When you order indian food, they might ask you if you want it extra spicy or like, north american spicy.
349
So it's not as spicy, but certainly spicy food. Yeah.
350
Like, I like, you can get hot wings, like chicken wings that are hot.
351
I don't mind those, but I eat less hot food as I get older.
352
Hopefully I explain that well enough.
353
We have vegetables and fruits.
354
So vegetables are anything that is green or red or leafy.
355
It's usually something that's grown on a plant or maybe like, carrots are in the ground.
356
Vegetables are very, very healthy, and they, like, you can eat as many vegetables as you want in a day and you will not get fat.
357
Okay, maybe that's not totally true, but definitely if you eat nine or ten vegetables a day and not very much bread or meat, you will be nice and healthy.
358
I think fruits are, of course, things that grow on trees, usually, although some things like strawberries are fruits and they grow on plants, but things like apples, bananas, oranges, limes, lemons, grapes, all of these things that are actually a little more sweet as well.
359
Fruits tend to be sweeter than vegetables.
360
And some people have questions about the word fruit and the plural fruits.
361
So I was thinking about this when I go to the grocery store.
362
There's a fruit and vegetable section.
363
You can buy fruits and vegetables there.
364
You can buy fruit and vegetables there.
365
The word fruit, I tend to put an s on it sometimes and not others, and I don't fully understand why.
366
Like the doctor said, I need to eat my fruits and vegetables.
367
So there, I would put it in the plural.
368
But when I talked about the grocery store earlier, I said, there's a fruit and vegetables section or a fruit and vegetable section.
369
So a little tricky.
370
I'm not explaining it well, but you have some freedom there.
371
No one's going to look at you funny if you don't pluralize fruit correctly in a, in a sentence.
372
I don't think you have grains.
373
So this would be anything made from Wheatley or rye or even rice or.
374
Let me think of another grain.
375
Barley, oats.
376
All of those things are considered grains.
377
Usually used to make things like bread or even different cereals.
378
So I don't eat as many grains as I used to.
379
The doctor told me I was eating too many carbohydrates and not enough protein.
380
So I eat a little less.
381
A little less grains.
382
I gotta stop eating the cookies, though. Lentils.
383
So lentils are kind of a new food to me, it's something that you can boil and they soften up and you can make really yummy dips with lentils.
384
You can put lentils in your soup.
385
They are, I think, what's called a pulse crop.
386
Very popular in other parts of the world.
387
Starting to become popular here in Canada.
388
And they're also relatively cheap.
389
Like a big bag of red lentils is quite cheap, by the way.
390
There's different kinds, like red and green.
391
I think there's even yellow.
392
And then rice.
393
I think one of the most common foods in the world.
394
I think rice is probably eaten in every country of the world.
395
I'm just guessing again, this is not a geography or science lesson.
396
We eat rice a couple times a month.
397
Usually we eat white rice, but we sometimes eat brown rice.
398
Rice is something that you either cook by boiling or steaming.
399
And it's very, very tasty.
400
It's very tasty to eat rice with other foods.
401
So quite yummy.
402
Then you have your meats.
403
So this could be anything from chicken to pork to beef to seafood.
404
So here we have, I think this is salmon.
405
So meat is, of course, food that comes from an animal.
406
And you have people in the world that will eat meat.
407
And you have people in the world that have decided to not eat meat.
408
They are either vegetarian or vegan.
409
I am someone who does eat meat, and I know I do have respect for people who don't.
410
Some people have decided not to.
411
But meat would be food that comes from animals generally that are raised on farms.
412
So you will have beef, pork, chicken, and or meat can come from fish as well.
413
So you might have salmon or tuna.
414
There's a lot of different kinds of fish in the world.
415
And then dairy.
416
So dairy is anything that's made from milk or that is milk. Okay.
417
If I go to the dairy section, my grocery store, they will have cow's milk, sheep milk, goats milk.
418
They will have butter, they will have cheese.
419
Cheese made from cow milk or sheep's milk or goat milk.
420
There's a wide variety of things you can buy in the dairy section of the grocery store, and it's usually all kept in a refrigerator.
421
Dairy goes bad easily.
422
So basically anything, either milk or things that are made from milk, cream as well.
423
Canadians buy a lot of cream to put in their coffee.
424
Then there is, of course, junk food.
425
We use the term junk food to talk about any food that isn't good for you and usually food that you can eat without having to cook or prepare it.
426
So chips. These might be called crisps, depending on what kind of English, you are learning chocolate bars, candies, all of the things that you can buy.
427
We also say that are ready to eat.
428
So you just open the package and eat it.
429
And usually food that isn't good for you, it's usually high in sugar.
430
It usually has a lot of fat in it or oil.
431
It's just not healthy or good for you.
432
Then we have kind of the complete opposite.
433
We have organic food.
434
Organic food is food that is grown without using any pesticides or herbicides or chemical fertilizers.
435
So let me explain that.
436
You can grow a tomato and you can put chemical fertilizer, and you can spray the tomato plant to kill the insects, and you can spray the soil to kill the weeds.
437
In that situation, the tomato is not organic.
438
Or you can grow a tomato using basically pulling weeds with your hands, covering it with a net so insects can't get at it, and then maybe using some sort of organic supplement instead of fertilizer.
439
So organic food supposed to be healthier for you?
440
Although it depends on what studies you look at.
441
My view is this, if you want organic food, grow a garden.
442
You get organic food.
443
It's healthier in a lot of ways.
444
You get some sunshine, you get time outside, a little bit of exercise, and you get free food.
445
Well, you got to buy the seed.
446
Health food is a term we use to talk about food that is healthy for you.
447
So usually when you say, I'm going to eat mostly health food, you're going to eat a lot of vegetables, you're going to eat a lot of fruit, you're going to eat healthier meats, like maybe seafood, which has less fat in it, basically food that is good for you.
448
And then we have fast food, which is food that you buy from a restaurant and generally food that is prepared very quickly or is already ready for you when you get there.
449
So things like hot dogs and french fries and hamburgers and pizza.
450
In North America, in Canada, we would call that fast food.
451
At lunch, I can go to town and I can go through a drive through and get a hamburger in less than five minutes.
452
We call that fast food.
453
I can go to the pizza shop and get a slice of pizza and they'll have it ready for me in two minutes.
454
They have them all cooked and in a big, like, warming rack.
455
I can get a slice of pizza.
456
If I want shawarma, I can go.
457
There's not one in our town, but there, there are a lot more of those types of restaurants around really fast.
458
They slice the meat off, they put it in a pita or another flat bread. Really yummy.
459
But fast food.
460
Fast, convenient, but not necessarily healthy.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
