Fast Food Of America
Have you ever enjoyed a hamburger, sitting on a lawn? Maybe you're
against all these hot dogs and cheeseburgers, because it's a junk food. Anyway,
it is always interesting to find out something about the origin and history of
such trifles, which make our life more comfortable.
Pop-Corn. It’s impossible to imagine American take-away food or
snacks without popcorn. Clear as a day, it is made from corn. But what about
the first part of the word “pop”. Actually, when you put a kernel of corn on a
fire, the water inside makes the corn explode. This makes a “pop” noise. That

dog from Germany with a very long body and short legs. Dachshund sausages

the newspaper cartoonist Tad Dorgan saw the men with the dachshund
sausages and got an idea for a cartoon: he drew a bun with a dachshund inside
– not a sausage but a dog. The cartoonist didn’t know how to spell the word
“dachshund” and under the picture he just wrote: “Get your hot dogs!” The
cartoon was a sensation as well as the name. If you go to a baseball game
today, you can still see sellers walking around with hot water tanks and
