Some of South­ African food are: Bobotie, Bunny chow, Frikkadel, Samp, Waterblommetjiebredie and… If you look closely at the ingredients, mostly of the South­ African Meat. It can be dry meat, meat in stew or even grilled meat. I saw that they eat Ostrich meat a lot too. But of course some of people don’t have enough money for a piece of bread. Swedish food contains almost everything. It can be vegetarian and it can be meat. One of the most known bread in Sweden is Crispbread. You can eat crispbread beside your food. There is crayfish parties in August. Those days, they eat crayfishes. One of the most famous fish here in Sweden is Surströmming. But the most famous food in Sweden is Meatballs with Mashed potatoes which is served with Lingonberries Jam. I noticed that South Africa has people from around the world and 79,8 % of them was christians during 2001. Because of that, they also celebrate the same same holidays as we do. It can be one day or 2 days difference, but they still celebrate for example Christmas at 25th december.
