Editor's Notes
Review the course objectives listed above. All-American Food includes the most common foods that are considered to be mostly American. However, many foods are very popular in the United States that have come from other countries. Mexican, Italian, and Chinese are some of the most common types of International foods that are popular in the U.S.. Other international foods are becoming more popular, like Greek, Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, and Middle Eastern. While these are all popular American foods, this list includes common dishes and side dishes that Americans often claim as their own. As you will see the most popular ingredients in American dishes, are meat, potatoes, bread, and cheese. An American man will sometimes me called a “meat and potatoes guy.” So, lets get started looking at the All-American food. As we go along, I would like you to tell me if you can already name some of these foods, or if you that food is common in your country.
Everyone will be given an “All-American Food” list to be referenced for upcoming lecture and activity. As you can see, I have divided the food into the three meals of the day plus snacks and desserts. Let’s read this list together. I will pronounce the word and you will repeat after me.
“Breakfast” “5am-11am” Beginning with breakfast, the first meal of the day, I am listing an approximate time that these meals are served. Many restaurants will only serve certain foods during a certain time of the day. Of course, in the U.S., we eat a lot and that means that many of these foods will be eaten anytime of the day. For instance, breakfast is usually served between 5 and 11 am. But sometimes, people will have “breakfast for dinner.”
Here you see a typical breakfast plate. Can you name any of these food items? (Extras: How are the eggs cooked? What kind of toast is this? What are the hash browns made from?)
Name the items. Repeat after me. Putting together a breakfast plate like this requires a lot of choices. At a restaurant or when you are a guest at someones house, you will be asked “How you would like your eggs?” Can you tell me some different ways eggs are cooked? There are many choices, Over Easy (as you see above), Scrambled (where they are all mixed up), Hard boiled (cooked inside the shell), and Fried or Over Hard (the yolk is firm and cooked on both sides for a longer time). With this sort of plate, you may also have to answer what kind of meat you would like…Ham, Sausage, Bacon, or sometimes Steak. Hash browns are shredded potatoes and fried. Toast is bread, toasted and will come with many options, too…White, Wheat, Sourdough, or Rye.
Sometimes you can choose biscuits and gravy for your toast. Say “Biscuits and Gravy”. This is a popular item from the Southern United States.
These two items will also sometimes be a side to a large breakfast plate. Can you name either one of these breakfast items?
“Waffle” “Pancake” Waffles and Pancakes can be served with a big breakfast plate or by themselves. They are often served with butter and sweet maple syrup or fruit.
Here are two types of cereal that are often served at home and as a quicker or smaller breakfast meal. Can you name these bowls of…?
They are “oatmeal,” which is oats heated in water to make them soft and chewy or “cold cereal” with milk. There are many types of cereal and people often add fruit to oatmeal or cereal. Both are eaten with a spoon. Do you eat one of these at home?
Can you name these common drinks at an All-American breakfast?
They are “milk”, “coffee”, and “orange juice”. In the U.S., there are many dairy farms and milk is encouraged to “build strong bones” and support the dairy farms. Coffee is the most common way to wake up for Americans. Many people also choose to have an espresso drink made to order. Can you name some espresso drinks? (Latte, Cappuccino) Orange Juice is the most common breakfast juice, but there are many more tc choose from.
“Lunch” is usually served from “11am to 2pm” and many of the dishes are cold to reduce the amount of time it takes to make, since many people are eating on their “lunch breaks” (the time away from work to eat lunch). But some other foods we will look at as All-American are foods that are common to the Saturday picnic or barbeque, too.
What is this person having for lunch?
“Soup and Salad” are a common combination for a simpler or healthier lunch. Soup is a thick liquid mix of ingredients served warm. Some common types of soup in the United States are tomato (as seen above) or chicken noodle (on the previous page). There are all types of salad. Salad is a mixture of many different ingredients, usually with a green vegetable as the main ingredient.
Soup or salad are also served as a side to these Sandwiches. “Sandwich” is so common to the American, the word is often used to describe other situations, too where two or more items or people are pushed together very tightly. Can you name any of them?
You may be familiar with some of these sandwiches, or not. The “grilled cheese” goes especially well with soup. It is just American cheese (processed cheese) and grilled on white bread. A “tuna sandwich” shows our love for seafood, at any time of the day, mixed with mayonnaise to make a rich and creamy seafood sandwich. The “submarine sandwich” is named after its bread shape. Its looks like a submarine and it is often filled with many toppings, including deli meat (lunch meat or bologna). A “peanut butter and jelly” (or “PB & J” for short) is in almost every kids lunch box on any given day in America. The mix is easy and kids love the sweetness of the peanut butter and jelly.
Another item from my All-American food list often includes many ingredients all in one, because it is so convenient to carry when one is “on the go.” Can you name this lunch item?
Although the “burrito” is often served at Mexican restaurants and has a Spanish name (little donkey), it is rumored to have only become a food item in the United States by the Americans and was not served in Mexico before its popularity in the United States. Which is why I have included it on the All-American Food list.
This All-American menu item is most often served at a barbeque with many options for toppings. Can you name it?
The All-American “Hot Dog” can have many toppings like mustard, ketchup, relish, or onions. It is probably the second most All-American food item on this list. Can you think of what is the number one All-American food item?
Lets wait on the #1 All-American food item and look at some other barbeque items that go well with the hot dog. Can you name any of these items?
“Chili” is a very thick mix of beans, meat, and tomatoes, and is often put onto a “Chili Dog” (a hot dog covered in chili), or it can be eaten by itself, like a soup. “Corn on the cob” is often barbequed and considered to be another American favorite that supports the many corn farms across the Midwestern United States. Many Americans also insist on having “baked beans” with their hot dog and a separate dish is even made sometimes called “Pork and Beans” to serve both of these American cravings.
And now for that #1 All-American Food…What is it? What are some other names for it? What ingredients does it have on it?
It is a “Hamburger.” (emphasize pronunciation) No, it doesn’t have ham on it. It is made with beef or a vegetarian patty, and you can find it almost anywhere in the United States, at restaurants, fast food, at barbeques, in people’s homes. Do you think of hamburger when you think of Americans? Why?
Can you name any of these common American lunch drinks?
You probably recognize all of these drinks. First one here is “Lemonade.” Have you ever heard of the saying, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.”? Can you guess what it means? (lemons are bitter, until sweetened by sugar in lemonade, it means make something good out of something bad that happens). (On idiom list.) Especially here in Southern California, we drink a lot of iced drinks for lunch, when the weather is the warmest. “Iced Tea” and “soda” both can have caffeine, also giving Americans that mid-day boost at lunch time. Can you name any popular sodas?
Are any of the sodas you named shown here?
Although we are going on to dinner as the last Main Meal of the day, there is a lot of snacking going on between the times of 2 and 4 pm, between lunch and dinner, and we will talk about those American food items in a minute. First, lets finish the main meals of the day with “dinner,” which is usually the largest meal of the day for Americans. Dinners include a lot of the core All-American ingredients, like meat and potatoes. Dinner is often considered a time for family to come together and review the day or a time that is good for a date from about “4pm-8pm.” What time do you usually eat in the evening?
“Chicken” is a very common ingredient in many American recipes, but is often considered the main dish of an American dinner. It can be prepared many ways. Can you name any of these styles of chicken?
Chicken!!! Is also often used to say that someone is scared of something. They are a “chicken” because they run away from it, like a chicken runs away. (On idiom list) These are all some common styles of cooking and serving chicken to large groups. “Chicken Nuggets”, “Chicken Wings,” “Fried Chicken” Do you have any of these being served in your country?
Here are some other main meat dishes. Can you name any of them?
Here they are all together on a popular All-American dish called “Surf N’ Turf.” This is a “lobster tail” with some “shrimp” and a small “steak (filet mignon).” Do you think you know why it is called Surf N’ Turf? (On idiom list.) It is often served with vegetables and potatoes. Can you say the names of these foods after me?
Steak can also be served as a main dish, most commonly with potatoes and vegetables. Can you name any of these vegetables or styles of potato?
Potatoes are made in a variety of ways, as you have seen, in the United States. For dinner these are the two most common ways to have a potato, the All-American way…baked or mashed. “Baked Potato” “Mashed Potato” Common vegetables at American dinners are “green beans, broccoli, and carrots.”
This All-American macaroni dish is a kids favorite. Can you guess what the ingredients are? Yes, “Macaroni and Cheese”!
The next two All-American dishes might actually be considered Italian. But, with all the Italian immigrants the U.S. has seen, we Americans have changed these two popular dishes and they wouldn’t taste the same in Italy. Can you name them?
One of the ways we have changed pizza is by making it the most common food to be delivered in the U.S.. “Pizza” is delivered to your front door, and is often a quick, cheap, and easy way to feed many people. Pepperoni is the most popular type of pizza. “Spaghetti” has been changed mostly by the market creating pre-made sauces in jars that the Italians used to prepare for days. Spaghetti is a common meal in many family homes because it also economical and easy to prepare.
Can you name these two popular drinks at dinner?
You got it! “Wine and Beer” are the most common dinner drinks because the alcohol helps people relax at the end of the day and often helps them fall asleep. Different wines and different beers go good with different foods.
Now, back to that mid-day snack, from “2-4pm”or any other time someone feels hungry, we have “snacks and sides” that were not mentioned as any of the previous meals, but are still very All-American, and you will see at most parties, barbeques, or get togethers, or as a choice with some of our main menu items at a restaurant. Can you name this first side dish, or any other snack items?
As I have already mentioned, “potatoes” are a core All-American Food item, and come in many different forms. They are added to many other main dishes. Can you name any of these?
These 3 forms of potatoes are most commonly served with sandwiches and hot dogs or hamburgers. “Potato Chips” “Potato Salad” “French Fries” Potatoes go with anything and they are abundant, so it is a cheap way to “fill up.” (On idiom list.)
As I said before, cheese is an all-American food. “Cheese” and “Crackers” is a common snack at parties or at home when kids get hungry. (“Cheesy” is on the idiom list.)
A salad is a lot of ingredients mixed together. You can have a “macaroni salad” or a “fruit salad”. Macaroni is a popular pasta in the United States, eaten at picnics and barbeques. Can anyone name some fruits that are in here? Common fruits in the U.S. are apples, bananas, oranges, and grapes.
Peanuts and Popcorn make good snacks to crunch on, together or separate. “Peanuts” are often sold at baseball games. “Popcorn” is a must for most movie-goers.
Americans love their sweets. While “dessert” is most commonly served after dinner, it is acceptable to eat dessert after lunch or as a snack, too.
Pie is the most American dessert. There is even a saying if someone or something is very American, it is “as American as Apple pie” (or it may be “cherry pie,” I don’t remember). (Saying on idiom list.) They are both very American home-made favorites.
Ice cream used to be homemade. There was ice cream parlors and soda fountains, places people would go just for ice cream treats. Now, ice cream is usually store bought and turned into “banana split”, “milkshake”s, or “root beer float”s. (Or you can eat ice cream alone, too. There are so many flavors to choose from, even banana split flavored ice cream.)
“Brownies” are mostly chocolate and are very good with ice cream, too. But they are often baked at home and given as a gift to people.
Cake is another home baked dessert that can be given to people for a special occasion, or just enjoyed after a big meal. Cake is often served with ice cream, too. Here are two popular forms of cake “Red Velvet Cake” and “Cheescake” (another item with cheese in, except its cream cheese in this case)
Can you name any candies? Candy is loaded with sugar and is eaten at all times of the day, sometimes to stay awake, because it has caffeine in it. Now, pass out candy…. Can we all say “CANDY!” And on to the next lesson.
Looking at the sheet that was just passed out, we are going to review how to serve a guest, at home, or at a restaurant, and how to answer, as a guest, in English, properly. The following script gives you a few ways to ask and answer. Now lets practice. I go into a restaurant and sit down. The server asks me, “Would you like a glass of wine?” (point to on chart). I answer, “A glass of wine would be nice.” or “No, thanks.” (Use several different scenarios, including other food or drink items, not listed) Then practice by asking students some questions, giving opportunity to answer.
Distinguishing singular and plural, “a piece of” or “a glass of.” (review questions on this sheet, too. Possibly drawing a bottle of wine vs. glass of wine, etc.)
Distinguishing singular and plural, “a piece of” or “a glass of.” (review questions on this sheet, too. Possibly drawing a bottle of wine vs. glass of wine, etc.)

Hand out sheet, have students write names of items they know, allow five minutes, then ask students which items they can name, then review on next page.
Ask students to raise hands, going in order.
Why is fast food so popular? The name of this popular California fast food chain gives one of the reasons that fast food is so popular. You are “in n out” because it is a drive thru. You do not have to get out of your car. You do not sit down in the restaurant. What are some other reasons fast food is so popular? (Cheap and Convenient-fast, many locations, Reliable-people expect the same thing every time from a “chain”)
Which of these fast food restaurants do you have in your country? Do you go to them? Why? What kinds of food does it have? Do you expect the same food and service every time? Do you get the same food or service every time? Have you been to any fast food here? If so, which ones? What did you think? Discuss your opinion of fast food restaurants with your neighbor. (Allow 5-10 minutes for discussion) Then come back ask students if they knew these places and could they answer one of the questions? Tell them a little bit about each place, if they do not know.
Working in teams for 5 minutes, have a piece of paper written to 16. Together, try to name as many of the logos as possible. Review results with class. What do the results say about the attitude or lifestyle of students? Is fast food pervasive? Are some people not eating fast food? What do those people do when they are in a hurry or do not want to cook? What do they eat? How much do you spend on fast food every week?
Copy link location and watch 15 minute video that talks about the conflict that is happening in American culture about fast food and its safety for our health. Share two things you learned from this video on a piece of paper.
Read passage aloud as referencing chart and ask students to write about why they think people who earn less money spend more of their money on food. Give 10-15 minutes, quiet time. Discuss as a class what we can do to make a difference. What needs to get better? What can we do? Have students turn in their written work.
(Time allowing) Review Sheet of “Sayings, Idiom, Slang, and Euphemisms Related to Food” with class, reading and clarifying some dangerous areas of language. Note that there is some language that may be uncomfortable for students and teacher should decipher appropriateness beforehand.
On a much lighter side, We are going to discuss popular holidays in the U.S. and how food is always tied in to each holiday. Food is a way to celebrate, and drink (alcohol) is often a large part of the celebrations.
Hand out “Food as a Way to Celebrate in America” worksheet and instruct students to write down as many foods that are mentioned related to each holiday, as possible. As going through following ppp, emphasize and re-pronounce food words and holiday names to assure words are heard and pronunciation is clear.
“New Years Eve is on December 31” “New Years Day is on January 1st” People stay up all night or at least until 12am Countdown the clock, drink (the last time?) Alcohol (Champagne), Football barbeques or pizza, Root Beer Floats, Banging Pots and Pans

Describe “Birthday” Ask some students when their birthday is? Birthdays are often accompanied by a party where there is often Pizza, Cake, Ice Cream, Candy, Anything the birthday person wants
Some students will receive a piece of paper with one of the holidays on it. I will give descriptions of an activity or food associated with that holiday. Students are to raise their hand if it is the holiday on their piece of paper, but don’t say the name of holiday. Then another student can raise their hand to guess what holiday someone else has. If they guess right, that person must give up their holiday card and can then guess to get one back. Can play several times, give candy randomly. That is the end of the lesson. Review with students what they are bringing to potluck tomorrow and to bring their recipe cards.
