There is only one mistake

0:03

in this text here.

0:06

Can you spot it? If you can't spot any

0:09

mistakes in that text, or if you think

0:12

you've spotted more than one,

0:15

you might feel a bit confused. Only

0:17

truly advanced English learners will

0:21

spot the one mistake.

0:24

Let's take a closer look.

0:27

As I read, listen and read along with

0:31

0:31

Try to find the mistake. Have you ever

0:34

been judged for your unusual food

0:37

You're not alone.

0:40

While the pineapple on pizza debate is a

classic,

they work incredibly well.

Many people swear by strawberries dipped

0:53

in balsamic vinegar, which enhances the

0:56

fruit's natural sweetness.

0:58

Peanut butter and pickles, or tomatoes

1:02

with milk. They sound wrong until you

1:05

try them.

1:07

My personal favorite is watermelon with

1:11

feta cheese.

1:12

That sweetness combined with a tang is

1:16

just delicious.
