Spain is a place where you can find wonderful types of food and yes your teacher is right they don't eat burritos everywhere. But there is one type of food that you can find in a lot of place's and especially in restaurant's in Spain and that is Tortilla Espanola which is a Spanish Omelet it might be a Breakfast item but it can be eaten anytime.
There are other types of food that are mostly seen during religious and holiday celebrations. To bring good luck in the year ahead, People in Spain traditionally eat twelve grapes, one with each chime of the clock at midnight on New Year's Eve. During Christmas season which begins on December 24th families have dinners that a typical menu includes onion and almond soup; baked fish ; roasted meat (such as turkey); and red cabbage and apples (or another vegetable dish. One traditional dish is Mazapanes (Almond Candies)that are eaten to signify the end of one year and the beginning of the next.
Another food that can be eaten year around and is one of MY favorite is flan. It is a Custard that is very sweet but is made differently then it is in America. Flan is very popular in Spain and is always a wonderful dish to have.
