¿Qué te gusta más...?
How to do this as a class: Estudiante A begins by asking Estudiante B, "¿Qué te gusta más, [comida a] o [comida b]?" Estudiante B answers with their preference.

Example:
A) ¿Qué te gustan más, las uvas o las manzanas? (Use "te gustan for plural nouns)
B) Me gustan más las manzanas.

Estudiante B keeps the food that they answered with, and pairs it with a new food of their choice. Then, Estudiante B asks Estudiante C "¿Qué te gusta más...?" and on down the line.
