Food/Eating habits of
Bangladeshi people
Food habits
refer to the habits or practices of taking food of the people of a particular
society or a country. These habits differ from one society or country to
another. In Bangladesh, different people like different kinds of foods
according to their own choice and taste. But the eating habits of the people
are almost the same. The Bangladeshi people have some special food habits. Rice
with dal and fish is our most common and favourite food. Khichuri is another
popular food item of the Bangladeshis. Besides, the Bangladeshis are also fond
of meat. Moreover, pithas of different kinds and shapes and payesh are also
liked very much by them. People also eat wheat, potatoes, other seasonal
vegetables, eggs, bread and all sorts of local fruits according to their taste.
People occasionally eat polao, biryani, chicken roast, mutton or beef curry.
Most families in Bangladesh have three meals a day- breakfast, lunch and dinner. Old people
take our traditional foods. But many young people are getting used to Chinese
and western fast foods day by day. Now it is time we have to bring some changes
in our food habits. We should form the habit of eating wheat or potatoes
instead of eating too much rice. (Words : 206)
