B2 thirteen-to-fifteen-year-olds are ready to examine food critically rather than just enjoy it. These 50 questions challenge upper-intermediate early teens to discuss whether school canteens should ban unhealthy options, how food advertising targets young people, why some food traditions survive while others fade, and what the environmental impact of their eating habits might be.
The vocabulary bank reflects this analytical depth: words like 'processed', 'advertising', 'organic', 'tradition', and 'sustainable' combine with argument-building phrases like 'one reason for this is...', 'on the other hand...', and 'this suggests that...' which scaffold the structured opinions B2 assessments require.
Critical Thinking Through Food
Questions about food marketing, diet culture, and environmental impact connect to issues teens encounter on social media daily. This authentic engagement produces better language than any textbook exercise because students are constructing genuine arguments about things that affect them, not rehearsing pre-formed opinions for a teacher.
Supporting B2 Argumentation Skills
Encourage students to ask each other 'why?' and 'what do you mean by that?' after initial responses. These simple follow-up questions push B2 speakers into the elaboration and clarification work that builds advanced fluency. YapYapGo's pair format creates the space for this kind of extended interaction.
Frequently Asked Questions

Frame disagreement as a skill to practise. Teach phrases like 'I see your point, but...' and 'that is interesting, although...' before the discussion. The paired format also keeps exchanges manageable.
Yes. The arguments and vocabulary activated in speaking transfer directly to opinion essays and reviews. Many teachers use a discuss-then-write sequence for food topics.
