We need to know the names of food items in English for telling someone about our preference of food. If you are taking part in any discussion where you want to talk about your likes and dislikes regarding certain food items, you need to know the name of that food item first. For example, if you have been invited to a dinner party, you can tell them the preference of your food only when you know the name of the food. Hence, this knowledge is also important.
