PART 1
BARBECUE
ANSWERS
Do people in your country like barbecues?
(Answer 1)
Definitely, as that’s part of our culture. We have easy access to different barbecue street foods wherever we go. Also, when there’s a special gathering in a family, like celebrating a birthday or anniversary, barbecue is one of the sought-after (generally desired ) foods, so it’s undeniable that barbecuing is one of the ways to prepare food for visitors.

Yes, we love barbecues! We enjoy barbecuing, especially, when we go on a picnic at the beach. We normally have brisket (a cut of meat from the breast or lower chest of beef), chicken, sausages, corn, and marshmallows. Barbecuing is actually very common during summertime in this country.
What kind of food do you like to eat for a barbecue?
(Answer 1)
This may sound weird to you, but since you asked that question, I’d love to share this with you. I love the giblets (the heart, liver, gizzard, and neck of a chicken or other fowl). In our culture, we enjoy eating those types of barbecue more than anything else. I know some people from other countries think that it’s gross (extremely unpleasant) but it’s really tasty. I’ve been eating this type of barbecue since I was little.
(Answer 2)
Like I said earlier, I enjoy eating barbecues such as sausages, marshmallows, beef, chicken, and some vegetables like potatoes, corn, and carrots. Talking about barbecues at this very moment makes my stomach growl (if your stomach growls, it makes a deep low noise), as I imagine the savory smell of barbecues (smiling).
Would you like to have a barbecue with your friends or family?
(Answer 1)
I love doing it with my friends more than my family because it’s fun. But I’m not saying that it’s not enjoyable doing that with my parents and siblings, I’m happy barbecuing with them, however, when my relatives are around (to socialize with or have close proximity to somebody), I really abhor (strongly hate; despise) doing so because they are nit-picky (refers to someone who is overly focused on tiny, unimportant details, especially when criticizing something) on the way I barbecue, plus, they keep asking me lots of personal questions that I really don’t want to answer while barbecuing.
(Answer 2)
Both! I mean I love having a barbecue dinner or party with friends or family. I love the different vibes (the emotional state or the atmosphere of a place). Whenever I do that with friends, there’s so much laughter and craziness because we talk about our silly (foolish) experiences in life. As for doing that with my family, I feel like our relationship as a family becomes stronger and we become much closer.
Did you have barbecues when you were a child?
(Answer 1)
Well, let me recall, I suppose (another way of saying, I think) I didn’t experience having a barbecue with my family. I may be wrong but I don’t really remember. Well, I ate lots of barbecues when I was a child but it wasn’t my parents who prepared those barbecues, they just simply bought those somewhere. As far as I remember, I experienced having a barbecue at home using a charcoal grill when I was already a high school student.
(Answer 2)
Of course! I had lovely memories of barbecuing when I was a child. Actually, our house is just a stone’s throw away (a short distance) from a white-sand beach, so every summer, my parents hosted a barbecue party and invited my aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. Honestly, it was one of the best memories of my childhood that I hold dear.
