Hi, everybody! Welcome back to Top Words,

my name is Alisha, and today we're going

to be talking about American food, so

let's get started!

Apple pie, the first food is apple pie.

Apple pie is a delicious and sweet

American desert, it is, as it sounds, it is

a pie, so a bit of crust, and on the

inside is apple, fresh apple, I hope. Large

feast often have an apple pie for

dessert. In a sentence, my mom cooks an

apple pie every Thanksgiving.

Chocolate chip cookie, next food is the chocolate

chip cookie, this is a very popular

cookie, it's a simple cookie, just put

chocolate chips into any cookie, into

anything, and you can make a chocolate

chip cookie. If you eat it there's a very

kind of nostalgic childhood feel about a

chocolate chip cookie. In a sentence, when

I was a child I made chocolate chip

cookies with my mom and my brother.

That's true.

Hamburger, the next food is probably the

first food you thought of when I said we

were talking about American foods today.

It is the hamburger, woohoo! A beef patty

between two buns, two buns or two pieces

of bread, and depending on your

preference you can put anything you like

on your hamburger. Many people like to

use cheese, thereby making it a

cheeseburger, you can use lettuce, ketchup,

tomato, onion, mustard, relish, whatever go

crazy! Bacon, avocado, anything really!

I love trying new and interesting

hamburger combination!

Jellybeans

This is an interesting American food,

thy are colorful, they usually come in

a package about this size, maybe this big.

They are kind of a squishy jelly-like

candy, very very sugary, and they usually

have some kind of fruit flavor. You can

find the regular jelly beans, which are

sweet and delicious, or you can find

jelly beans which are maybe a mysterious

mixture. In a sentence, when I was a kid I

loved eating jelly beans.

This is an actual picture from one of

the, from a supermarket, almost all of

those are jelly beans, or their candies

to some degree. So you can see they're

like pins to scoop the candy out of,

there is a bin to like pour candy from.

This is amazing! American candy is just

unreal, there's so much!

Turkey

Ok the next food is turkey. Turkey is a

weird big bird that we almost always eat

at Thanksgiving.

That's right, turkeys, you're weird! In a

sentence, every year my family cooks a

turkey for Thanksgiving dinner.

Boston baked beans

the next food is Boston baked beans, this is something i haven't

had in a long time. As you might have

guessed, it's an East Coast style food

from Boston, so Boston style baked beans

are typically sweetened with molasses or

with maple syrup. In a sentence, I'm going

to make a chili later today with Boston

baked beans.

Grits

This is a food that comes from the

southern part of America, I didn't eat

grits growing up so I don't really know

very well. From a video that we did a

while back, we learned that grits are

commonly eaten at breakfast, you can eat them

with butter.

I eat grits every day for breakfast.

Hush puppies, here we are again! The next

American food is hush puppies.

Hush puppies from the same video that we

talked about grits, our friend Keith came

in and told us about

hush puppies. It's just a ball of dough

that is fried.

That's it a very very simple food, very

very healthy, surely, ya know. In a

sentence, I haven't had hush puppies yet,

and i really want to try them, but they

don't seem very healthy, so it's not high

on my to-do list.

Biscuits and gravy, ok great, the

next food is biscuits and gravy.

It's a very simple dish as you can guess,

it's just a biscuit and gravy, the gravy

is usually very very rich, very very

fatty, very fattening. This is a dish that

is typically eaten for breakfast, a

simple coffee shop or just yeah local, a

local simple restaurant might have

biscuits and gravy on the menu. In a

sentence, I used to eat biscuits and

gravy at my grandparents house in the winter.

Philly cheesesteaks! Oh my god! I'm

getting so hungry for a very not healthy food.

Ok the next food is Philly cheesesteaks,

a Philly cheesesteaks are so good. Philly

is short for Philadelphia, the city of

Philadelphia. Philly cheesesteak is a

sandwich from Philadelphia, the sandwich

has cheese and steak, oh my god, can you

hear my stomach?

Delicious! Delicious! It's a very

East Coast American sandwich. In a

sentence, if you go to Philadelphia make

sure you try a Philly cheesesteak sandwich.

Alright! So those are 10 American foods.

Have you tried any of these foods? What

did you think of them?

This video has made me very hungry.
