Compare cultural attitudes toward food and eating in Guatemala with those in your own country. Write your response in Spanish and submit it to your teacher.

Answer 1

The first stage in this activity is to conduct research on typical Guatemalan foods.

Then, you compose a Spanish paragraph on what you've learned and compare Guatemalan food to food from your own country.

Here are some examples of differences I might discuss in Spanish:

• La comida típica de Guatemala incluye frijoles.
• La comida típica de Guatemala es similar a la comida típica mexicana.
• La comida típica de mi país incluye carnes asadas y platos típicos como empanadas.
• La comida típica de Guatemala incluye maíz.
• Un plato típico de Guatemala es el Kak ik.
