Question
Work in pairs. Think if two examples of food for each of the adjectives below. Can you see any food in the pictures that could be described using these adjectives?
Answer
- bland: boiled rice / potato (= not much taste / no spice or seasoning)
- fattening: pasta, chocolate, ice cream (= high in calories)
- filling: bread, pasta, potato (= makes you feel full)
- greasy: fried egg, chips (grease = liquid fat)
- juicy: oranges or other fruit, rare steak
- raw: meat, vegetables (Note that we don’t say raw fruit or raw rice. Point out that we usually cook meat and fish but sometimes they can be eaten raw, e.g. in sushi.)
- sour: lemon, yoghurt, milk that’s gone off
- spicy: chilli, curry
- tasty: any dish which has lots of flavour, e.g. pizza, Indian or Mexican food
- tender: meat (if a steak is tender it’s soft and easy to eat)
