    One day i invited my friend Amy to my house over dinner and she was so suprised to see my mom making home-made pasta and breads from flours. Amy thought pasta and breads are something we buy at grocery stores. I also got invited to amy's house on her b-day and was so surprised to see her mom cooking foie gras. I have never eaten it before ....but it tasted really good. i just noticed that some foods that are common in our family could be surprising to other families and vice versa.
