Impact on Learning

http://flipregionalfood.pbworks.com

The only problem is that you get stomachache if you eat the Krapfen hot.

Our tongues are watering just looking at it. It looks like a doe nut with sugar on it.


In the Leberkäsesemmel is Leberkäse, a sort of pasty. In the pasty is beef and pork and a lot of spicery.

This snack looks very unusual. I think we have those bread baps in Northern Ireland.


On a Grammelschmalz-brot isn´t any sugar on it. It must not be wheaten bread, for the Grammelschmalzbrot. What exactly are the wee crispy bits? They do look scrumptious!


Most schools would serve Irish stew as a Saint Patrick’s Day meal or just as a meal on any other day.

The potatoes are okay, but the meat looks ugly, and it is swimming in a terrible sauce.


Do you eat Boxty for breakfeast?

You can eat boxty anytime you want either morning or night.

How many people in your class like Boxty?

Absoloutly no one eats boxtyin our classroom even though it tastes really good.


Between the 3rd and 4th

hour we mostly eat “Gabi's Fitnessweckerl”. This is a roll of bread with some salad, ham and cheese in it. Sometimes there are tomatoes and radish in it, too.


On other days we prefer junk food and sweets like pizza, donuts and other kind of chocolate, but we eat everyday some fruits.
