In Spain, there is no shortage of culinary traditions and customs. We love to show off our tapas and paella, a meal that is usually present in many houses on Sundays at noon. Any preparation, of course, we have to water with olive oil, an emblematic product of our gastronomy. Nor should we forget the potato omelette, with or without onion, little or well done, because there is something for all tastes.
That in terms of our gastronomic habits, but there are also other culinary customs that distinguish any person born or residing in our country. For example, it is difficult for us not to accompany any meal with a piece of bread or eat at the same time that other European countries eat.
Any foreigner who knows all this and who complies with each of these habits, will know that he is already fully integrated into our country. That is what an American has explained through her TikTok account. She is Morgan and she has an account dedicated to explaining to other visitors what is typical, what are the most special corners or what dish they have to try if they visit Spain.
This American has dedicated videos on TikTok to Malaga, Calpe, Madrid or Asturias. And she has also been concerned with explaining what the famous Murcian ‘acho’ means.
Now, Morgan has uploaded a video to her account in which she tells why she feels she is fully integrated into our country, as far as culinary habits are concerned. For example, she talks about that custom we have of starting meals at three in the afternoon. We started late, and we finished later still.
He also wonders how he is going to go back to eating without a piece of bread, “because bread has become a necessity at every meal.”
This young woman also takes the opportunity to highlight a custom that has little to do with food, but assures that it is repeated a lot: responding with an onomatopoeia when we don’t like something, without the need to say a word or say ‘no’.
