11 Delicious Foreign Foods You Absolutely Need To Try
Chinh-le- Duc

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!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
