Food Availability and Food Selection Assessment Task When the early Settlers arrived in Australia in 1788 they brought food with them such as flour, potato, mutton, goat and rice. As you can see in the image above it took a lot of time for the settlers to adapt to the environment, climate and the new food. BY NAWAL SALEH Food Availability and Selection Influences on Food Selection in the Past and Present Part 1 For most of us, food availability is fairly simple; you just go to a shop and buy it. However, it is not always that simple, in this assessment task I will discuss and look at the social, economic and political influences on food availability and advances in technology that make many foods available. I will also look back to a time when food wasn’t always readily available.
Jeffrey Kung Mrs. L Writing 1 7 October 2013 Cooking with Costco Costco Wholesale is a massive warehouse where many Americans shop at to get their daily supplies and other products. The warehouse has a wide variety of useful products ranging from suitcases to bounce houses to televisions to lobsters. Although the warehouse offers so much variety to its customer’s, there is a bad side to it as well known as the Costco effect. Costco also has quite a few restrictions. Besides their restrictions, Costco also do not have equal quality treatment of all of their food products.
The arrangement of the dress, the shape and type of headgear, were both main signs of your social status. The cooking of the old Chinese way is still a mystery to us, because we have no clue what were the recipes to their food. The food of Hangchow does not seem that much different than the modern day Chinese food though. The only difference that they have concluded is that the Hangchow food choices varied more than the food of the Modern day Chinese. Many restaurants in Hangchow specialized in certain types of dishes; some of these were sweet soya soup, pig cooked in ashes, fish soup, and rice served with mutton.
For the Columbian Exchange Assignment I was assigned to create a meal using Old World ingredients. This was somewhat of a challenge for me! As I looked through the list of available ingredients I didn’t see anything I would eat on a daily basis. So, I decided to go for a hearty meal with lots of vegetables and protein. My meal included lobster tail, turkey, squash, corn, and wild rice.
A pot hangs from the fire place. The wood at the bottom is messily thrown underneath the pot. A simple sturdy wooden table is placed slightly to the left of center stage, simple chairs placed around it. There are some flowers in the center of the table not yet placed in a vase or pot. In the kitchen you can see the wash barrel for the dishes and a small wooden stool sits in front of the wash barrel.
Britain and France declared war on Germany after Hitler had refused to abort his invasion of Poland. In some kitchens people cooked on a 'stove' heated by a coal or wood fire. The stove heated the room and cooked meals. Most kitchens had a gas cooker though some had electric cookers. Not many people had a refrigerator.
Chelsea Hobbs Eng. 101/TTh J.Hess 11/13/2012 The Myth of the Melting Pot and its Identity The Myth of the Melting Pot is realistic and almost unobtainable at the same time, today’s society cannot coexist together but literally are a bunch of multiracial and cultural ethnicities living in; the same area in the same country and on the same earth. When you think of what the Melting Pot would stand for it would be like a stew like soup or a gumbo, and in this gumbo or stew all components come together to bring out the spices and textures in this pot so not only are there tons of different and unique ingredients they create a harmonious taste that brings to life the dish. The American Dream was always sought out to be the mainstream
This is incorrect as the slaves only got one meal a day, two if they were lucky enough. Focusing on the word ‘meal’ it suggests that this was an elegant dinner of fine cuisine, but we know from research that it was mainly stale bread and watery, cold soup. Where the writer states the ‘quarters were perfumed’ is almost humorous. To begin with, ‘quarters’ suggests the slaves had private rooms shared with 4 or so other people, but I know that all the slaves were kept cramped together in one huge area underneath the ship. Secondly, ‘perfumed’ is rubbish!
Jacky Stephen A. Fuller Sr. English Skills 24 February 2011 “My passion for cooking” There are millions of people in this world, but what sets individuals apart from one another, it is our personal qualities and characteristics. We come from diverse backgrounds. However, everyone has one quality that makes him or, her special individual. For me it’s my passion for cooking. Most people would not consider cooking equality, but for me it is.
First of all, technologies play a very important role in society because it makes life easier to live on and less time consuming. Nowadays, when the rapidness of development and research is so impressive, it is useful to have tool and devices that can make our work easier. People do not have to do all the hard labor anymore. For example, microwave ovens cook food easily without using any stoves and making a big mess. Food companies have developed products that can be cooked in the microwave ovens in just a few minutes (and I don’t speak about fast food, but traditional dishes like lasagna, chicken with rice and so on).
