New Zealand

Hello, how are you??

Last summer vacation, I visited NZ and ate many delicious food!!
So I'll introduce about it.


Do you know something about NZ?

NZ locate near the Australia, the capital is Wellington and the famous sport is rugby.
Also, there had a terrible earth quake around Christchurch as you know.


NZ is famous for sheep.
I don't like lamb in Japan, but it was so delicious in NZ, so I ate it many times!!
Lamb is used for humberger, kebab, and so on.


Have you ever heard hokey-pokey?
It's a very popular flavor of ice cream in NZ.
The taste is like caramel and it so delicious.


Also, kiwi fruit is very popular.
You can see CM on TV which Norika Huziwara is eating gold kiwi fruit.
It's from NZ!!


This is very popular cake "pavlova" !!
The inside is meringue, the outside is sugar.
At last, put kiwis on.

However, it was too sweet for me...

If you visit NZ, please try!!

Allergy

Hi, everyone:)

Do you have any food allergy??

Fortunately, I don't have any allergy.
So, I can eat everything;)

Some people around me have allergies...
They have to check the ingredients when they eat something.


I was working at cake shop, and sometimes costumers asked me "Is this contain egg?"
I had never think about that, but some allergens are used for cake.


Last year, I studied about a dog in Media English class.

In the textbook, an eight year girl was suffering from severe peanut allergy.

If she touch something with peanut residue left behind, she'll be hospitalized.
If she eat something with peanut in it, she'd die.

However, she is always protected by a dog, which trained to detect peanut, and
thanks to the dog, she can go everywhere.

I didn't know about the dog, but I think a lot of people need the dog.


Recently, some restaurants have low allergen dishes, for example, curry and rice, spaghetti, soup, bread, hamburger and so on.
The dishes don't contain egg, milk, wheat, peanut, shrimp, buckwheat, soy bean and crab.

I think it helps a lot of people, but still limited.
We should study and understand about allergy.
Don't you think so?

Let's eat chocolate☆

Hello!!

Last year, I researched about chocolate in my writing class.
So, I want to write about chocolate today!!

The reason why I researched about chocolate is very simple.
It's because my favorite food is chocolate!!!
I love the texture, the sweet taste and the rich flavor!!

What image do you have for chocolate?
It's unhealthy? Get fat?

I'll tell you the good points of chocolate;)

Chocolate contains a lot of good nutrition to prevent us from serious diseases like cancer.

Have you ever heard GAVA?
Chocolate contains GAVA, and it makes you relax.
You can sleep well if you take it.

Chocolate contains a lot of cacao poly phenol.
It reduces the chance of cancer and allergies, and it also good for diet compared to other snacks!!

Also, chocolate prevents heart attack, and keep healthy blood pressure!

However, of course, eating too much chocolate can make you get fat:(
Be careful!! 100 gram is good according to my research.

I recommend you to eat chocolate everyday:D

♡Ginger♡

I caught a cold last weekend:(
I have a sore throat today...

I always drink ginger tea when I had a sore throat, because it's good for sore throat.
It makes me hot.
Also, I heard it's good for our stomach and intestines.
So, I drank it yesterday.

Ginger is not main food, but it's important spice for Japanese food.
Furthermore, ginger cookie from England is popular.
I think ginger is wonderful food!

Anyway, I like ginger tea♡

However, I wanted to drink another drink for a change.
So, I mixed cocoa and ginger tea.
It was very nice!!
I hope it heal my throat.

When you have a sore throat, what do you eat and drink??
If you know something delicious and good for sore throat, please tell me!!
