| In the States, there are many delicious dishes! We've already covered how to order them, but now how do you eat them? However, that is not always so straightforward. In this lesson, we'll learn how to ask, How do you eat this? |
| Since the food in the States comes from different cultures, you might come across food that you don't know how to eat. In such cases you can ask, How do you eat this? How asks for the way you can eat it, do you eat is the question, and this is what you're referring to. All together that's How do you eat this? |
| Finally, we will talk about something that may come in handy for everyone who doesn't like hot things. Some American cuisines can be pretty spicy at times. So if you want to make sure it's not, you can ask the question, is this hot? Or is this spicy? Once again that's is this hot? Or is this spicy? |
| Okay, now to close out today's lesson, we'd like you to practice what you've just learned. I'll say the phrase or sentence, and why don't you try saying it out loud? Good luck everybody! |
| - How do you eat this? |
| - Is this hot? |
| - Is this spicy? |
| All right, that's going to do it for today! See you all soon! |

HideHi there Liandro,
Thanks for taking the time to post and share. 👍
Great job on your sentences! I will just let you know a few corrections here:
- Mexican food is very delicious, it offers a variety of plates.
- ...and each state cooks its own food, that's why we have so many delicious plates.
I hope this helps. 😄👍Please feel free to ask us any questions you have throughout your studies.

probably I made a mistake
I write variety of plates and must
be variety of dishes
The mexican food is very delicious
it has a variety of plates.
The mexican republic has many states
and each state cook his own food that
why we have many delicious plates.

I like spicy foods.
I want to eat many different kinds of spicy foods.
Dear Ma Xiqiang,
Thanks for your question! The verb "to come" here talks about where the food originates from. For example. America has Italian food, Chinese food, Japanese food, Cuban food, etc.
Hope this answer helped and have a very merry Christmas!
