× My favorite food will be definitely with burger because the buns and the flavors mixture in that Patty bone is obviously it's so flavorful and so tasty.
✓ My favorite food is definitely a burger because the buns and the mixture of flavors in the patty are so flavorful and tasty.
The original used 'will be' incorrectly for a general present preference; use present simple 'is'. There are also subject-verb agreement issues ('mixture ... is' -> 'mixture of flavors ... are' because plural noun 'flavors' requires 'are' when referring to them) and awkward word order. Suggestion: use present simple for habits/preferences and reorder to 'the mixture of flavors in the patty are'.
× And I also liked Mayo's inside my burger very much.
✓ I also like mayonnaise in my burger very much.
The speaker used past tense 'liked' but is describing a current preference; use present simple 'like'. 'Mayo's' is incorrect possessive and informal; use the noun 'mayonnaise'. Suggestion: use 'I also like mayonnaise in my burger very much.'
× As we all know, when we were young, we like lots of sweets in it.
✓ As we all know, when we were young, we liked lots of sweets.
The time reference 'when we were young' requires past tense 'liked' rather than present 'like'. Remove the unnecessary 'in it'. Suggestion: match past time clause with past tense verb.
× So I used to like a lot of sweets.
✓ So I used to like a lot of sweets.
Sentence is already correct. 'Used to' correctly expresses past habitual action. No change needed.
× Uh, any kind of food or any kind of fruits that contain sweet in taste, like chocolates, umm, gummy beers and all, like cokes.
✓ Any kind of food or fruit that tastes sweet, like chocolate, gummy bears, and cola.
Use 'fruit' (uncountable or plural) instead of 'fruits' in this context, and 'tastes sweet' is the natural phrasing. Correct spelling: 'gummy bears' not 'gummy beers'; 'chocolate' and 'cola' are more natural. Suggestion: simplify to 'any kind of food or fruit that tastes sweet, like chocolate, gummy bears, and cola.'
× Yeah, I definitely, uh, eat different foods at different times of, uh, over a period of year because during, at the summer time I use uh, I eat a lot of cold foods and drinks, but well, as in winter I youth a bit hot with soup in it.
✓ Yes, I definitely eat different foods at different times of the year because in summer I eat a lot of cold foods and drinks, but in winter I prefer hot things like soup.
Tense is present simple for habitual actions. Remove redundant phrases 'of, uh, over a period of' and incorrect 'use' and 'youth a bit hot'. Use 'in summer' and 'in winter' idiomatically and 'prefer hot things like soup' for clarity. Suggestion: use concise present simple and correct vocabulary.
× Yeah, it has changed quite a lot because nowadays, uh, before I used to eat a Swiss so many sweetie flavoured things with uh, but now my taste bird had since few times or years ago, I like of it, uh, sour and spicy kind of food like noodles, et cetera.
✓ Yes, it has changed quite a lot. Before, I used to eat many sweet-flavored things, but a few years ago my taste changed and now I like sour and spicy foods, like noodles.
Multiple errors: use present perfect 'has changed' is fine; simplify sentence into two sentences. 'Before I used to eat...' is correct for past habit. Phrases like 'Swiss', 'sweetie flavoured', 'my taste bird had since few times' are incorrect or nonsensical. Use 'a few years ago my taste changed' and 'I like sour and spicy foods'. Suggestion: split into clearer clauses, use 'used to' for past habits and 'now I like' for current preference; correct vocabulary and word order.
