11 Delicious Foreign Foods You Absolutely Need To Try

Last week, I wrote a listicle, titled 11 Foods That Should NOT Exist As a follow-up, I thought it would be entertaining to write about 11 Foreign Foods that should not leave existence. I love food, and there are too many delicious choices out there, so 11 will just have to suffice. Without further ado, I give you the 11 different foods:


1. Escargot

Yes escargot are snails, but it is a delicacy! You wouldn't eat them raw, but cooked(obviously). But if you eat them cooked with garlic butter than it makes for one amazing dish! They also make for a dinner party favorite!


2. Goulash


Do you want soup, but not anything too light? You have that carnivorous friend who doesn't want any vegetables in their soup? You have that one potato obsessed friend? Look no further than Goulash! A meaty and potato goodness without being too heavy! It's definitely a childhood favorite!


3. Currywurst

If you like sausage, spice, and fries you'll definitely love currywurst! Germans love, and I mean LOVE this fast-food dish!


4. Filet Mignon


It's literally a miniature steak! A perfect portion as well. Rich, with a great combination of light!


5. Pasta

Penne, Linguini, cavatappi, etc! Pasta is too delicious! There are too many sauces and meats to choose from! If you are not a vegetable person, you can easily incorporate them into pasta!


6. Wiener Schnitzel

I'm not talking about this Americanized disgrace...


I'm talking about this wonderful dish:



It's a meat that's light, without excluding the flavor! I love this breaded meat! And it is nothing like Chicken Tenders! Not that I have anything against Chicken Tenders, I love Chicken Tenders but these are not chicken tenders!


7. Wanton Soup


This soup is so light! If you're on a diet, or trying to watch your calories Wanton Soup is a great soup to eat! It's delicious and fun to say in a Chinese accent! WANTON! Not making fun of the Chinese, it's just fun to say!


8. Pizza

I think most of us can agree on this! Btw, you're missing out if you haven't had true pizza from Italy! But just look at this amazingness! Are you in love yet?


9. Döner

How the hamburger is a classic fast-food item, for Germans and Turks it's the Döner! It's essentially season lamb and mutton with lettuce served with kebab sauce! Kebab sauce is light yogurt, sour cream, and lime juice that's blended together to make the white sauce you see!


10. Gyro

All I can say is that the Greeks now what they are doing!


11. Poutine

Cheese Curds, gravy, and fries yum! Canadians, I'm sorry you get a lot of hate, but you sure know how to make some mean poutine!

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!
