Food...

     I have been really slacking it with the blog. Anyways, this whole unit on politics of food has been really interesting. I absolutely love to cook and I definitely think that we have forgotten about the joy you can get out of eating a certain dish. I mean how many of us sit in class and during this unit began looking up foods we love? And how many of us sat there getting all excited about food and getting hungry? Food is a universal language, it really is. One of the things that you can for sure experience whenever you travel, is the different foods each country and each culture has to offer. Creating food is an art that some people even make a profession. Too many of us have forgotten these things. We now run into the kitchen to grab something quick that we can just scarf down so that way we can get back to whatever show we were watching or whatever homework we may have. Enjoying your favorite dish is one of the little things in life that a lot of us have misplaced and have forgotten to make time for. I suggest everyone go home, make your favorite meal and just sit down and enjoy it whether you're alone or if you're with people, just take 30 mins to taste your food and think about all the ingredients that it took to create the flavor that is sitting in your mouth. Life moves so quickly and we all need to slow down and enjoy as many moments of it as we can. That's the two cents that I got out of this unit.
