美国饮食特点
居家过日子的美国人买的食品都简单。一袋面包，一罐饮料，一袋胡萝卜，几只洋葱，偶而也有人买一盘牛肉的。他们极少用调味品，用得最多的是沙拉油。
美国的餐馆一般规模不大，都收拾得干干净净，而且食品种类并不很多。有人总结美国饭的特点，一是生，牛排带血丝，二是冷，凡是饮料都加冰块，三是甜，这当然是中国人依自己的口味作出的评判，不过倒也切中要害。事实上，美国人吃饭注重的是营养，而不是口味，一般美国人也不大会做饭。
在美国城乡，咖啡店（兼营冰滇淋）、麦当劳快餐店比比皆是，前者恰似中国四川的茶馆，后者很像四川小吃店，杭州小吃店。到咖啡店，喝一杯咖啡一个多美元，吃一份冰淇淋二三美元，边吃边聊，十分惬意。美国的冰淇淋堪称一绝，有各式各样的，上面还撤满了脆香的果仁，十分好吃。麦当劳店更是别具一格：远远望去，不论何时何地的“麦当劳”店都有三面旗子在显眼处飘扬，一是美国国旗，一是州旗，一是店旗。不论哪儿的麦当劳店部生意兴隆，一份三明治或热狗，一袋土豆条或爆米花，一杯饮料，加起来才3.99美元（美国商品标价都这样，以零点九九结尾，决不凑整数，这说明美国商人的精明），何况饮料喝完了再添可不付饯。更有趣的是暑假期间，店里都是雇用一群十二、三岁的女学生，那满脸稚气认真干活的神态，令人喜爱。若遇到假日，顾客较多，这帮女孩身着制服，头带运动帽，还带上一付耳机外加一只小话筒，不时地操作与联络，那认真的劲头好像海湾战争时的多国部队总司令在指挥一场战斗。
