The gobal cultures cultures differ from the American way of life because there were foods that become their religion and some of the families might have culture maybe have a rich family. My family background is middle class we earn what we have like me i can play basketball and rap, but i really dont know. Yo Boy The Realist.

I believe that it differ because we all live in different parts of the world and what is available in that part may not be available in another so we get used to. For example: In one culture there were people who eat polar bears and seals. You would expect people to eat that kind of food because that is what is there were they live. It is because they eat what is available. In my family culture we eat food like chili, chicken, macaroni etc. In America we have option to eat at fast food places and restaurants. What might seems strange to us is original to them just like pizza, burgers, and ice cream is the american foods.

I think globilization is things we share around the world.

The video talks or shows how now people are losing their jobs, how things are getting harder to do, because people from other countries are coming to america and taking or getting other people jobs because of the more experience that they have, and things are going to be harder like getting a job, or maybe even school being hard to others because they dont really care about their education and the teachers are going to get stricker.

I think global cultures differ from the American way of lifeand also my family's background because most Americans do not even spend as much money as food. That is too much that is why we have so many obbese children and adults now. They mostly had chicken and other meats. It wasnt many fruits or vegetables. My family's background eat three times a day and some snacks. Those people look taht they eat five times a day.

The global cultures are different from the my american life by we dont eat the same things and that we might not spend the same amount that they spend. My family bsckground is that all we eat is chicken and pork chops and maybe some times we might find differnt things to eat my background is not all about culture but the other familys that I saw they eat by they cutures and what they have around them.

The global cultures are different from the my ordinary american life because when our parents or who ever go to the store we just throw our food in the basket. But in 3rd world countries people have to either hunt or work to feed there family! My family background is we eat bake things my moms really don't fry things because of the kids in the house play sports !
