Do you personally follow the rules of a healthy way of life? Why (not)?
Yes,I do. I do morning exercises every day, do sports, choose what I eat more carefully. I eat only a well-balanced diet: more fruits and vegetables. It’s very important to be healthy and in a good shape.
What questions can you ask me about my eating habits?
- Do you like fast food?
- How many times a day do you have a meal?
- What do you have for breakfast?
- What’s your favourite dish?
Which national dishes can you recommend a tourist to taste in Belarus?
Of course, draniki (potato pancakes). They are made from grated potatoes with the juices, flour, eggs, soda and salt. All ingredients are mixed together, pancakes are formed from the batter and then fried.
Scientists say that fast food is unhealthy but teenagers can’t stop eating it. What do you think about it?
I think that fast food can be a delicious killer because it can lead to health problems. Fast food is simply tasty, ready-cooked meals packed to go.
Eating too much fast food is bad for your health because fast food contains more calories, more unhealthy fat, and more salt. It has a lot of additives, artificial colours and flavourings. It can can lead to obesity, high blood pressure, weakness of your immune systemand coronary heart diseases.

Now let’s talk about national cuisine of an English-speaking country. What do you know about eating habits in Britain?
In Britain, people often eat cereals such as cornflakes with milk for breakfast. Some people like to have toast with marmalade or jam, and they drink a cup of coffee or tea, or a glass of orange juice. On cold days, some people like to have porridge for breakfast. Baked beans are a favourite food of many children in Britain. Afternoon tea is traditionally a formal meal where they drink tea and eat small sandwiches (especially cucumber sandwiches), cakes.
Some people criticize English food. They say it’s unimaginable, boring, tasteless, it’s chips with everything and totally overcooked vegetables. If you ask foreigners to name some typically English dishes, they will probably say “Fish and chips” then stop. It is disappointing, but true that, there is no tradition in England of eating in restaurants, because the food doesn’t lend itself to such preparation. English cooking is found at home. So it is difficult to find a good English restaurant with reasonable prices. In most cities in Britain you’ll find Indian, Chinese, French and Italian restaurants. In London you’ll also find Indonesian, Mexican, Greek… Cynics will say that this is because English have no “cuisine” themselves, but this is not quite the true. Everyone knows that tea is the most popular drink in Britain. It’s even more popular than coffee, which is favoured throughout Europe and America.

Do you like cooking? Why (not)?
Maybe yes. But it doesn’t happen very often because I’m very busy now. If I have a chance to spend time cooking I prefer to cook some special and tasty things: pizza, pancakes, stuffed cabbage, chops, roast chicken, hot pot (тушёное мясо с картофелем, овощами), biscuits and what not.
No. I don’t like cooking. I think it’s boring. My mum does it better. I only help her by cooking.
What questions can you ask a British friend about his eating habits?
- What meals do you usually have?
- How many times a day do you have a meal?
- What do you have for breakfast?
- What’s your favourite dish?
Which national dishes can you recommend me to taste in Britain?
I think you should taste a pudding. There are hundreds of variations of sweet puddings in Britain, but each pudding begins with the same basic ingredients of milk, sugar, eggs, flour and butter and many involve fresh fruit such as raspberries or strawberries, custard, cream, and cakes.
