What is a very popular food in your country that people enjoy casually at home?

Asked by JLeslie (65714points) July 7th, 2014

In America it’s pizza and tacos according to some survey that was being talked about on the show The View. To be honest I would not have thought of tacos, but pizza I definitely agree with.

So, my questions are:
1. What country do you live in?
2. What food is very popular that is eaten at home?
3. Is it a food that originated in your country?
4. Is it usually made from scratch, brought in, or delivered?

Pizza in America you can have delivered to your house almost anywhere in the country. Not just your house, they also deliver to hotels, college dorm rooms, almost anywhere. Plus, we have many brands of frozen pizzas sold in the supermarkets and some markets sell fresh “raw” pizzas ready for baking. My supermarket sells the pizza dough and all you do is spread it out on the baking dish and add whatever toppings you would like and bake. There are instant mixes to make the dough, ready made pizza shells, pizza kits. Pizza pizza pizza. My guess is very few Americans make the dough from scratch.

I always thought pizza was from Italy, but someone recently said it might have originated in Greece? Mediteranean area of the world for sure I guess. The Italian immigrants first popularized it in America, and it was a big hit.
