Food Evolution

I think the topics covered in the first part of the semester weren’t really a new concept to me. My High School focused on a lot of organically and locally grown foods. As the semester went on though my eyes were opened to things I hadn’t thought about before. The food and community topics changed my view of food. I never thought about the community ties food creates and the food preparation essay really made me analyze that facet. In an earlier blog post I said that I didn’t see how food had politics tied into it, but with the readings I have discovered that it is everywhere, whether it regards race, culture, or social life.
