And it's been amazing to see and read how it resonates with so many of us even though our actual experiences may differ. But food really is a universal act that bridges time, distance and cultures.Tangled Noodlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17543997083087131116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240896319294333780.post-66663188562884225522009-01-17T00:21:00.000-06:002009-01-17T00:21:00.000-06:00I love this post.

I am from the US but grew up in Brazil and Holland, which I still consider home in many ways, and while I don't remember all of the languages, the food stays with me and influences so much of what I make. Thanks for a great post, it was really neat to read.Kieziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00678062214018224302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240896319294333780.post-83807689542027273982008-11-05T18:38:00.000-06:002008-11-05T18:38:00.000-06:00Joie, I'm happy to hear it brings back memories.Joie, I'm happy to hear it brings back memories.Tangled Noodlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17543997083087131116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240896319294333780.post-91412667655855586032008-11-05T18:14:00.000-06:002008-11-05T18:14:00.000-06:00Mmmmmmm....My favorite childhood meal!Mmmmmmm....My favorite childhood meal!Joie de vivrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090182072040742810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240896319294333780.post-64531805283217920752008-11-05T08:04:00.000-06:002008-11-05T08:04:00.000-06:00Thanks, Dr. Jay!

I think that we all take our cultural identity for granted when we are comfortably immersed in it but take us out of that comfort zone and suddenly we realize how it can actually help to define us. Food not only helps us re-connect to our culture, it also introduces us to others, and vice versa.<BR/><BR/>Stay tuned - I'll be posting the next part soon!Tangled Noodlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17543997083087131116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240896319294333780.post-61468412910706320302008-11-03T12:44:00.000-06:002008-11-03T12:44:00.000-06:00I really enjoyed this post and I'm looking forward...I really enjoyed this post and I'm looking forward to the part 2.
