Hello everyone, we are back with a mouthwatering, sweet & delicious list. Any guesses?? Well, this time, it’s the Fast Food list. Fast food, as the term suggests, is cooked fast and eaten faster. However, they may not be nutritionally valuable compared to other foods and dishes. But, love it or hate it, you can’t live without it.
Here is the list of the top 10 fast foods in the world:
1. Burger
The burger is the most popular fast food in the world. A burger is a sandwich consisting of one or more cooked patties, placed inside a sliced bread roll or bun. The patty of a veggie burger may be made from vegetables, tofu, textured vegetable protein, nuts, mushrooms, or grains or seeds, like wheat and flax. The patty of a hamburger consists of ground meat, usually beef. Consider this, if you wind up all the burgers sold by McDonald’s, they would stretch to Mars.
2. Donut
A donut is a type of fried dough or dessert. The most common types are ring donuts and filled donuts, which are injected with cream, preserve fruit, custard, or other sweet ingredients. Various toppings and flavors are used for different types, such as sugar, chocolate, or maple glazing. Donuts are often accompanied by coffee when purchased at donut shops.
3. Hot Dog
The Hot dog is considered the most American fast food. A hot dog is a cooked sausage, traditionally grilled or steamed and served in a sliced bun. Typical hot dog garnishes include mustard, onion, cheese, ketchup, mayonnaise, and olives. Americans consume 155 million hot dogs on Independence Day alone, making the hot dog one of America’s top icons.
4. Pizza
Take a flatbread, add a topping of tomato sauce and cheese and bake it in an oven. Congratulations, you just made a pizza. Pizza is not only the simplest fast food but also one of the most popular fast foods in the world. It is commonly topped with a selection of meats, vegetables, and condiments.
5. Barbecue
Barbecuing is done slowly over low, indirect heat and the food is flavored by the smoking process. Barbecuing is usually done out-of-doors by smoking the meat over wood or charcoal. The barbecue grill is used for cooking, usually at a social gathering where food is served outdoors in the evening or late afternoon.
6. French Fries
Without French Fries, the burger wouldn’t be the same. French Fries are batonnet or cut potatoes that are normally deep-fried. On average, French Fries make up about 13 percent of every fast food meal sold.
7. Sandwich
Also known as the Kids lunch food, a sandwich consists of one or more types of food, such as vegetables, sliced cheese, or meat, placed on or between slices of bread. There are both savory sandwiches, such as sliced meat sandwiches, and sweet sandwiches, such as peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Sandwiches are easily portable and can be taken to work, school, or picnics.
8. Dumpling
Take a little dough, fill it, wrap it up, and you have made a dumpling. The dough can be made with bread, flour or potatoes, and can be filled with fish, meat, sweets, or vegetables. Dumplings may be cooked by boiling, frying, simmering, or steaming.
9. Instant Noodles
This is the only food on our list where all you have to do is add hot water. In 1958, Momofuku Ando flash-fried some noodles and invented the most impactful product ever to come out of Japan. Today, 95 billion packages of instant noodles are sold every year.
10. Jerky
A handful of jerky provides enough energy for an average person throughout the day. Jerky is lean meat that has been defatted, cut into strips, and then dried to prevent spoilage. Drying involves adding salt to prevent bacteria from growing on the meat before enough moisture has been removed. This protein-rich food has been repeatedly selected by astronauts as a space food for space flights due to its lightweight and high level of nutrition.
