走进美国快餐
美国人（American）用餐一般不在精美细致上下功夫，而更讲究效率和方便，所以近年来方便食品日益增多，除去最常见的三明治（sandwich）、汉堡包（hamburger）和热狗（hot dog）外，市场上还有速溶咖啡（coffee）、速饮桔汁、速食面包（bread）、速食糕点（cake）以及快熟面、罐头汤、电视餐等，hamburger和hot dog是街头巷尾出售的大众化食品。hamburger中通常有牛排（steak）和洋葱（onion），吃起来方便可口，深受人们欢迎。至于hot dog的问世，其中还有一段有趣的插曲。传说的发明者是德国移民安东·弗奇特万根。1904年，他在圣路易斯开了一家饭铺，出售牛肉（beef）、香肠（sausage）等。因为他买不起那么多副银制刀叉（knife and fork），只好把手套（gloves）发给顾客，让大家用手拿着香肠吃。不久，他发现这个办法行不通，常有人吃完饭后“顺手牵羊”，把手套也带走了。而且洗手套既费事，费用又高。弗奇特万根最后想出一条妙计：他把sausage夹在一种细长的面包里出售，不但方便，而且好吃，很快便博得大众喜爱而畅销各地。由于这种食物形似酷暑里伸着舌头的狗（dog），所以人们称它为“hot dog”。
Sandwich是用两片面包涂上黄油（butter）或者蛋黄酱、芥末、番茄酱，中间再夹一层乳酪（cheese）或各种熟肉做成。三明治种类很多，比较受欢迎的有火腿三明治和烤牛肉三明治等。西红柿（tomato）和泡菜（pickle）常夹在三明治里或和三明治一起吃。
所谓电视餐，是用有格的铝盒盛上汤（soup）、主菜（main course）、蔬菜（vegetables）及甜食。平时冷冻收藏，用餐时，放入烤箱烘烤二三分钟即可。饭后盒子可扔掉，简单方便，可边吃边看电视，故称“电视餐”。近年来备受美国主妇欢迎哦。
