Why should I cook other countries' cuisine?

What is international cuisine?

• The traditional foods eaten in other countries around the world. 
• Every country and region has its own unique cuisine.

Why?

• Cooking can be a fun way to spend time with family. You could also end up finding your new favorite recipe if you decide to try something outside of the box.
• I enjoy cooking for my family and would like to spread that happiness to everyone.
• Cooking at home will also save you a lot of money and you should establish these habits before you are on your own. As you can see in this bar graph, most American families cook and eat home 3 to 6 days a week and 4% of millennials never cook at home and always eat out. In my opinion this is becoming a problem because people are wasting their money and health on eating out. 
  
• The average American family spends $3,008 a year on eating out. This money could easily be cut in half and spent elsewhere. 
• You could learn a lot in the process, whether it be about yourself, culture, or just knowledge that could be helpful in a future conversation.
• Learning about different cultures has inspired me to travel someday and who knows what it could inspire you to do.
