"DO NATIONS EXPRESS THEMSELVES IN THEIR FOODS?

MAIN IDEA:

          Foods are one of the things that differentiate nations from one another.

POINTS:

          a.) In Middle East, people love to relax and eat while they enjoy each others company while in Europe and North America, the cities are saturated with fast-food outlets where people eat and run, reflecting their lifestyle -- a fast pace of life where, in order to succeed, time means everything

          b.)  In the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern lands, food and tradition go hand in hand. It takes several hours to make a meal in the Arab Middle East while in Europe and North America, preparation is effortless. One can buy the ingredients canned, frozen or prepared by someone.
