Think of a culture whose food they have not tried (this activity might be somewhat easier if you see what is available in your location and choose among available options).

Then, spend a little time researching the importance of food to that culture including the types of foods consumed, norms of dining, the role of food in family life and so on.

Finally, sample as many or as few items as desired from that culture as he or she feels comfortable, but you are encouraged to try as many different types of food as you can. It is preferred that you visit a restaurant or snack stand that cooks the food rather than trying to prepare food items from this culture at home.

Finally, write a brief reaction paper that will include two parts:

(1) A brief overview of the culinary beliefs and customs of the chosen culture; and

(2) a reaction to your experiences of both learning about the culinary customs and then enjoying food from your chosen culture.

Your paper should be no more than 3 double-spaced pages in length (12 point font maximum), and you should devote approximately 1.5 pages to each section. Standard APA format it required.
