Course Description
Through this course, students will reflect on their relationships with food, based on culture, family, and traditions. They will keep `food journals¿ each week, which encourage at-home cooking or the discovery of new eateries in the Miami area. Additionally, through course readings and digital materials, students will become acquainted with the intrinsic connection between humans and the natural world through food. Weekly reading/course material assignments will be assessed based on online discussion posts and in class discussions. Students will also engage in class `filed trips¿ to a local Miami farm in Homestead, a Miami kosher Jewish bakery, and two restaurants that are prominent cultural centerpieces for the Hispanic and African American communities in Miami.
