Kebab

Okay, so a kebab is basically yummy food that is made on a stick. Imagine you have a very long stick like a pencil or a straw. Now, think of lots of delicious ingredients like meat, vegetables, and sometimes even fruit that are cut into small pieces and put onto the stick.

After that, the stick is cooked using fire or heat until the ingredients become golden brown and tasty. Sometimes, the stick and ingredients are spun around to make sure that all sides are cooked evenly.

Now, you can take the stick and eat it like a popsicle, except instead of ice, you have yummy food on it! Kebabs are often enjoyed as a snack or a meal and can be found in different parts of the world like the Middle East and Mediterranean regions.
