Clothing is Western in style and European fashions are popular. The main ingredients in Bulgarian food are lamb, potatoes, tomatoes, onions, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, and yogurt. A typical meal may consist of shopska salata (cucumber salad), tarator (yogurt and cucumber soup) or chorba (bean soup), and agneski drebulijki (shish kebab). Lokum (a nut-filled pastry) is a common dessert. Domestically produced wine and brandy is of high quality. In rural areas Bulgarians live in single-family houses; most urban dwellers live in apartments. Soccer is the most popular sport; the Bulgarian soccer team became a source of national pride when they competed in the semifinal round of the 1994 World Cup.
