Our foods and Drinks.

What kinds of food and drinks do you have where you live? Someone post this question on the teen life wiki. This question is very simple but it has a lot to answer. Well, were I live The typical food is fish, coconut rice, and sometimes soup. This food is so delicious becuase the poeple that cook it has been all there lifes doing this. Here in Cartagena, Colombia we rink a lot of things. We have coke, Naranja, Uva, Manzana, Sprite, 7up, crush that has different types. We also have natural juices. I like Lulo, Lemonade, Maracuya, and Pine apple. You now that here we have a lot of humid clamate, and hot climate so we use t drink fresh things. I drink a lot of water but I dnt drink too much coke because coke is the worst thing in the world. Maybe for some people cke is delicious but I accept it but it is very bad. We have potato chps, french fries, chcolate. One of the things yu have that we dont have is mountain dew. Mountain dew is so delicious I love it. We also have a lot of chocolates like snickers, milky way but you know what we dont have. We dont have Reccess. Reccess is one of my favorite chcolates it's so bad that we odnt have it here. The candy that is typical here are cocada, dulce de coco that is cocnut candy, we also milk candy (dulce de leche), Caballitos and much more.

Really we have a variety of candys, drinks, and food. I am very happy with what I have in my country. Really I dont think that to be a beautiful country we need to have all the foods in the world, I think tha what is important is that poeple keep up our same food and candies so we can save our tradition because this food is from long time ago.

Another question I want to answer from the teen life wiki is: Is poverty a big issue in your place? Well, were I live the 70% of the poeple are poor. Its really sad that poeple that are rich don even mind about poor poeple. This people are poor because they could not study becuase hey didnt have money. If there is more poverty there would be more poeple without study so more poeple would be poor. Maybe in other places poverty is not a such a big problem as here in Cartagena. Its sad to see little kids with very bad condition clothes selling candies at the streets s they can get some money to eat. Sometimes you can see old but very old mans that are singing with their guitar so them they collect their money. Its really sad seeing that each day poverty is increasing more and more. Also their is a lot of displaced people. Some poor people sleep at the streets over some cardboard. I dont know how do they survive. Sometimes we dont value the things we have but poor people would value even a little piece of crackers. I hope this porblem would decrease because Cartagen and all Colombia are suffering a lot.
