well in my opinion i think food does have a major affect on the way your mood. I love to eat. i always try to eat as much different type of food from different cultures so i never would had though that having a good diet will make me feel good or to be in such a good mood and am actually willing  to give it a try and see if it actually work that
 having a good diet will help me be in a good mood. its going to be hard but if it helps my body am going to try it out and i encourage everyone to give it a try maybe your in a food mood and you dont know why well maybe its because your not eating good, so giving this a try is not a bad idea maybe in the end it turn out helping you and you could recommend some one else to give it a try. This could be the start of a bright new bright happy new day.

Ecuador culture

Ecuador has many things to talk like their Galapagos island and all there animals that live there and also there food. Ecuador has many different type of foods but one especially that they are know for is cuy (witch is guinea pigs). Many people cant understand that for us Ecuadorean is a traditional, some people judge us for eating guinea pigs with out even knowing how it taste. I will like to describe how it taste but its hard  because is something that u cant describe by word u have to taste to understand it. Ecuador is also know for its ceviche ( raw  seafood or boiled in the case of prawns. This two type of dishes are well know in Ecuador, we are know for our best seafood dishes. Am proud to be an Ecuadorian  and i will never denied my culture and the type of food we eat. I invite anyone to try our traditional food before they judge us i know ones you give it a try you will see why we are proud of our food.

Dont judge others people traditional food

Food place a big deal in someones tradition back ground. their are proud from were they are.
some people traditional can look way different than other my my type of traditional food. am Ecuadorian and what we mostly eat is guinea pigs. to some people it may sound disgusting  or grows but to me and my family its something that is in our tradition for generations. It taste really good actually you should never judge some else s food if you haven't even give it a try on tasting it. in my opening you should
always  try out different type of foods. That way you will be able to feel and see others tradition and history of there culture.

MY OPINION!!!!!!

Traditional foods are different type of foods that make each nation different from each other, it makes each nation to be unique and proud of there tradition. each nation has their own traditional food some may look better than other but to me what counts is how it taste, to taste someone else's traditional food is something that you cant describe in words, it makes you wander "What were they thinking when they prepare this food?" and "Why did they decided to makes this there traditional food, whats the story begin it"
