The World Food Day and food circumstances in Western Europe

I researched about what was happening in Western Europe and the UK related to the World Food Day. World Food Day is an international day celebrated every year worldwide on October 16 to commemorate the date of the founding of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization in 1945. I focused on Western Europe due to the World Food Day. One of the problems that are focused in Western Europe is the food wastes. There are 3 million tons of wastes and primary productions have been wasted. Most wastes comes from UK households. On the other hand there are many counter solution for food wastes. The governments of Western Europe have settled the food bank which is non-profit organization that collects and distributes food to hunger-relief charities. Thus they also have suggest people to food compose the wastes to make alternative fertilizer. More directly, France have been banned the food wastes by Law.

Podcast relating to my food book

In class I was assigned to find a podcast related to the topic of my food book. As I mentioned on previous blog, I am reading the book called, Trejo’s Tacos. This book is a cookbook which deals with Spanish cuisine and the author Trejo’s eventful biography. I also found the podcast called, Food Aesthetics Barcelona. This podcast is about a Finnish-Mexican couple searching for the best quality and best value meals in Barcelona. Also it suggest people how good or bad the food was, their food experiences, and the spot in Barcelona. I thought the book and podcast is corresponding because it suggest delicious Spanish foods. Thus sharing their experiences that they had. However, it is different that podcast is more local; shares delicious restaurant spots in Barcelona. Adding to that, it is same Spanish food but the region is different. Although both book and podcast is very interesting and humorous, I love it very much.

New thing that I have learned from my cookbook

In previous book I have introduced my cookbook that I have using in the class which is called the trejo's tacos. Today I want to update what I have noticed by reading the book. I have found that each tacos are very unique and original. For example in this book there are fish tacos, meat tacos, and vegetable tacos. Also the ingredients was affordable so I thought it was easy to get in local markets. Also, I have found that there were some pages that Trejo appears. This book often uses fancy taco figures although I could see Trejo seriously cooking in his own restaurant. I do like the fancy figures more however I could see his potential against his food.

Analysis of poems

In my class I was signed to analyze 2 poems which are “Ode to Pork” and “I too, sing America”. 1. Ode to Pork This poem was made by the man called Kevin Young. He is a director of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and culture. I wouldn’t be here without you. Without you I’d be umpteen pounds lighter & a lot less alive. You stuck round my ribs even when I treated you like a dog dirty, I dare not eat. I know you’re the blues because loving you may kill me–but still you rock me down slow as hamhocks on the stove. Anyway you come fried, cubed, burnt to within one inch of your life I love. Babe, I revere your every Nickname—bacon, chitlin, crackling, sin. Some call you murder, shame’s stepsister– then dress you up & declare you white & healthy, but you always come back, sauced, to me. Adam himself gave up a rib to see yours piled pink beside him. Your heaven is the only one worth wanting– You keep me all night cursing your...
