Food is always a fun topic for practicing your English. Here are some vocabulary words that you can use.
delicious – This means something tastes good.
Wow, that bread you made is so delicious.
yummy – This means the same as delicious, but slang.
The pudding I cooked last nice was so yummy.
tasty – This also means that something tastes good.
My mom’s apple pie is incredibly tasty!
to die for – This means you really love something.
These chocolate chip cookies are to die for!
snack – It’s something you eat between meals.
Everyday at 3pm, my daughter eats a snack.
bedtime snack – A snack you eat right before bed.
I ate too many nachos before bed. I really should cut out my bedtime snack!
brunch– This is eaten around 10am. It’s a bit late for breakfast, but a little early for lunch. The word is combined “br” (from breakfast) + “unch” (from lunch) = brunch.
Do you want to meet for brunch on Sunday?
In Spanish, we also say that a meal is to die for when it’s really tasty. But there’s another expression too: it’s for licking your fingers (está para chuparse los dedos). Curious, isn’t it?
We say: “It’s finger licking good!” That’s similar right?
Thanks so much for your comment! I’m glad you stopped by my web site!
Hey Yvonne.
I stopped by your web site, it’s amazing!
“to die for” it is a common expression in Brazil. Feijoada is to die for! But it is so fatty. 😉

Hi there! Sadly, most things that are ‘to die for’ are really fatty and bad for us. 🙂 LOL! But then that makes them soooooo good! Thanks for visiting my site!
I’ve read all the olders, and known tons of things. I’ll visit those pages again & again in order to soak up. Thanks!
to die for, we say “as loved as the death”, also say “as wanted as a hand comes out from a throat”. It’s just funny! LOL!
Oh I really like this one: “as wanted as a hand comes out from a throat.” I love how different languages all express the same thing, yet slightly different. Very interesting. Thanks so much for your comment!
Today, I ate scone,it very yummy !
I love scones! I need to make some. Thanks for the comment!
