What is America's typical meal?
The obvious answer is hamburger with French fries and ketchup. But the foods in America's favorite meal are not originally from the United States. Hamburger are originally from Germany. And French fries are actually from Belgium, not from France.
Fries are popular all over the world in fast food chains, and they are served with hamburger. Fries with ketchup are a popular combination, too. What about the ketchup? Where is it from? The word ketchup comes from the Chinese ketsiap, a fish sauce. Add some tomatoes to the sauce, and we have America's favorite---ketchup.
