The kind of food I eat in America

It may come as a surprise to most of the Americans, but yes, people in Asia do wonder what kind of food do Americans eat.

Do Americans really eat burgers and fries and steak as is seen in their McDonald's culture?

Well to tell you the truth, the fast-food is only a partial of what Americans do eat.

Americans do have McD and Starbucks takeouts, but those are mainly limited to around twice a week for ordinary people like most of us (excluding the urban executives, who munch on Subway and drink Starbucks espressos on nigh daily basis).

And as for me, here is an unexhaustive list of my daily diet:

  1. Macaroni and Cheese
  2. Lasagna
  3. Mashed potatoes with grilled meat and kernel corn
  4. Beef stew
  5. Chili soup
  6. Hot dog (Three ways)
  7. Rice with Sweet&Sour Chicken
  8. (bland) Beef/Chicken Noodle

However, unlike their Asian counterparts.... Mind you, all of the above meals I listed are preprocessed and instantly cooked, either with a microwave or a pour of boiled water.
