5 Delicious Polish Foods You Need To Try

In This Article:

The heart of a culture is often found in its food. Cuisine brings a country together, and everybody around the world loves trying food from other places.

For the next year, I will be studying Poland and its culture. Indeed, I have a fondness for Polish cuisine and enjoyed trying it while traveling in Poland.

I'm not Polish - I'm just a foreigner who hopes to learn all I can about this important nation.

Pierogi

Fun fact: "pierogi" is actually a plural word! "Pirog" is the singular. These dumplings can be filled with just about anything and can be served either boiled or fried. The best part is that everybody loves pierogi, and they can be made to match your own taste!

Kielbasa

Kielbasa is a Polish sausage. It's great in casseroles with potatoes and peppers, and it can also be great as a little snack while you're watching TV.

Golumpki

Golumpki is cabbage wrapped around meat or veggies and dipped in a sauce. It's super good!

Chocolate

Poland is a country famed for its chocolate. Try some! Whether it's from Wawel or Solidarnosc (or elsewhere in Poland), Polish chocolate is becoming increasingly popular in my homeland (the USA). And due to the large number of Americans in Poland, we are starting to have more and more of a chocolate exchange with one of our oldest allies.

Bread

While Ukraine (Poland's neighboring country) is known as the world's breadbasket, Polish bread is amazing as well - especially when it's fresh from the bakery!

My dear readers, have you had Polish food? Do you recommend any Polish foods that aren't on the list?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
