Chilean food


The aim of this report is to let you know a little bit more about Chilean food. This report is based on a survey of one hundred people aged between 20 and 50 years old.
The most popular dish according to the survey was "pastel de choclo" It is a kind of a corn pie made with a base of meat and onions, some olives, half a boiled egg and some chicken. All of this is put into a clay pot and then we put some mushed corn mixed with basil. Finally we add some sugar and we cook it in the oven.


The least popular dish is " Guatitas" according to the survey.
It is a kind of stew made with carrots potatoes and meat, which is the stomach of the cow.
The texture of the meat is heary and with a lot of muscles, so it is really hard to eat. However there are a lot of people who eat it because it is very cheap.
Well finally I would say that chilean food is really tasty, and with a lot of variety. If I have to recommend something, you do not leave our country without trying our sea food, especially the sea food "Empanadas" from Coquimbo in the fourth region.

Nothing can be done to save the environment.


I totally disagree with that statement because there is always something to be done.
we have to do something to save the environment because we live on the planet and our children will live here too so we definetely need to take care of our planet so the next generations can enjoy the same privileges.
On the other hand helping the planet is not so difficult as it seems because we can help it by doing little things at home, as a family or in the neighborhood.
We don't need to go to the jungle and save animals, or create a new plan aginst the global warming, all we need to do is to start by the little things, like recycling at home, or stop dropping litter on the streets, quit smoking or anything that we think it could help the enviroment.
So we know now that the planet is our responsability and we need to take care of it, and we can help to do this every day when we do those little things that will help us too, because we all want to live in a clean place.

Should computer based programs replace real classes

I think that computer classes will never replace completely real classes because we need the feedbak from our classmates and from our teachers, so computer based programs only help us to complement our learning and they are also useful to people who doesn´t have time to go to school but I think that the best way to learn is going to classes.

Vacations


The idea of taking a vacation looks atractive to anyone, because we are all so busy trying to deal with our jobs, the house and even university, that we can not have a minute of peace. that´s why from the first minute that I heard the invitation I said yes. let me tell you about this project. it consists of traveling around the most exciting places all over the world. staying at the most fancy hotels, and trying all kinds of exotic foods so then I can decide wich ones are the best places to go on a honey moon. yes I know!! it´s like the best job in the world and I'm sure you all like to do it, but I'm afraid there's one problem.

Where the hell is Matt?


Well I would like to visit so many countries because I`m a big fan of all kinds of food, and I want to try all the typical foods of every country. In fact my favorite program on cable is Bizarre foods, have you seen it?? the host is Andrew Simern I'm not sure about the last name, but I'd love to travel to Marruecos for example, and try the pigeon pie. I`d also like to try some hot dogs at Papayas New york, or travel to China and try their famous pekin duck, maybe try the huggies in Austria, this is a very traditional food but looks disgusting because it's kind of a pate which goes inside an animal intestines and then it`s served there.
finally I`d like to visit England but I don`t know very much about their food. I`d just like to go there for fun.
