Top 10 Signature Foods, Spices and Drinks Coming from a Certain Country or Region
It's not healthy, no no no... but who can resist?
French fries are served hot, either soft or crispy, and are generally eaten as part of lunch or dinner or by themselves as a snack, and they commonly appear on the menus of fast food restaurants. Fries in America are generally salted and are often served with ketchup; in many countries they are topped instead with other condiments or toppings, including vinegar, mayonnaise, or other local specialties. Another guilty pleasure. Maybe there are people who don't like it but I personally don't know anyone who hates it. By the way, they originated in Belgium!
Fun fact: French fries actually originated in Belgium.
Very popular with my family (We're Asian)
We eat it every day!
Wiener Schnitzel is a very thin, breaded and pan fried cutlet made from veal. The Wiener Schnitzel is the national dish of Austria.

Ouzo is an anise-flavoured alcoholic beverage (aperitif) that is widely consumed in Greece and Cyprus. Ouzo is a clear liquid but when water or ice is added, ouzo turns a milky-white colour.
Two main types of examples of English puddings: First, there is the Yorkshire pudding. It's basically a light pastry that is eaten mainly with beef and vegetables.
Secondly, there is black pudding. It 's meat based and looks like a long black sausage which tastes a bit like stuffing. It's mainly eaten as part of the Full English breakfast. Most popular with our Northern English friends.
I've seen so many different things called English/British Pudding that I really don't know how the authentic/original/typical pudding looks like. If somebody from the UK can help... please.
Finally a clear explanation! Thank you Britgirl!

I love Emmental cheese (aka Swiss cheese) - it's with holes that look like craters, haha.
Emmental cheese (Emmentaler or Emmental) is a yellow, medium-hard cheese that originated in the area around Emmental, Switzerland. It is one of the cheeses of Switzerland, and is sometimes known as Swiss cheese.
While the denomination "Emmentaler Switzerland" is protected, "Emmentaler" is not; as such, Emmentaler cheeses of other origins, especially from France and Bavaria, are widely available, and even Finland is an exporter of Emmentaler cheese.
I love middle-eastern food. They're spicy and delicious!
