In the United States, this might be a typical day:
Breakfast - boxed cereal with milk, orange juice
Lunch - ham & lettuce sandwich
Dinner - roast chicken, potatoes, broccoli, pie for dessert
Yes, in almost all of America, water from the faucet is safe to drink. It is cleaned and has chlorine in it to kill bacteria. Some people have started buying bottled water as well. Only Asian immigrants boil the water.
Main differences from China:
1) Americans probably eat more meat
2) Americans eat mostly wheat (bread) or potatoes as their starch, not so much rice.
3) Americans eat more milk and milk products (cheese, yogurt)

I am a Filipino and we eat similar food and a well balanced diet. For breakfast we like garlic fried rice, eggs and hotdog. For lunch, we normally eat the left overs from the night before to take to work but if there is nothing left over then we make do with a sandwich using white bread and a piece of fruit such as apple, banana or other seasonal fruit available. For dinner it is steamed rice with a vegetable dish and the main course is either fish, chicken and pork. Our family rarely eat red meat as it is not good for you but we like it for special occassions such as birthdays, or during holidays.
I do not drink milk but my children born here drinks a lot of milk and they like cereal, pancake and other common food in USA such as pizza, hamburgers, french fries and ice cream.
Sometimes we like soda but in general we drink water, I drink tea myself to stay healthy which I learned from my trips to China.
I have a water purifier installed on the faucet to get rid of the lime and unpleasant taste of water here in California.
We love watermelon also and cantaloupe. We drink the cantaloupe juice mix with water and suger serve cold, it is a refreshing drink in the summer and very delicious.

Breakfast--cereal, eggs, toast, yogurt
Lunch--salad, veggies, some form of lean meat protein
Dinner--chicken, beef, turkey, pork, veggies, rice or potatoes
Bottled water is best at least in my area, diet sodas, juices are also good.
