Looking forward to seeing you this afternoon, everyone, and discussing the Jane Kramer piece from Secret Ingredients.
Here are sites to get you started in your CYOA assignment:
*Gourmet's favorite food sites
*Bon Appetit magazine online
*Food and Travel magazine online
*The New Yorker online has a terrific search function in which you can find even more recent food pieces than the ones collected in Secret Ingredients
*Every Wednesday, the New York Times has a Dining Section; and every Sunday they put out a Travel Section. There are various food and travel articles throughout the paper everyday (like this one in yesterday's paper about pesticide use threatening a giant ant-eating tradition in Brazil) and you can access all the articles and blogs anytime online. It's worth spending some time on the site.
*This is a delightful radio show devoted to food
*there are, of course, cable networks devoted entirely to food and travel. Take a look here, here and here.
That should at least get you started. Don't at all feel limited to these particular sites in your hunt for your CYOA; my hope is that by bringing what you love to class, you'll expand our knowledge and resources. Also, make sure to present something to us that sustains good discussion. Showing a cooking show clip or a recipe, for example, likely won't get us anywhere. Also, make sure to find something that speaks to the marriage of food and place.
As of 10:11 a.m. today, this blog has only 9 followers. Make sure to follow this blog, and all class blogs, through blogger.
