Cultural Adjustment to Food

  • Do all people in the U.S. only eat fast food?
  • How do I survive on American food or are there other options?
  • Is beef the only meat available?

Don't worry! The U.S.A. produces a variety of fresh foods and imports foods from all over the world! In most cases, if you know where to look, you will find what you are looking for. Check the listing of restaurants and supermarkets our staff and students recommend below!

Don't forget to try new foods and be mindful of the variety of diets people follow from our campus.
