    Jennifer 8. Lee was on a quest to find out how authentic American Chinese food is. In her book, The Fortune Cookie Chronicles, she uses multiple themes to illustrate her findings and her research, such as diversity, food, race and history, but I think her book is mostly about the culture aspect of American-Chinese and Chinese people.

I also think she wanted to inform people about the differences between American-Chinese food and pure Chinese food.…

    In the article, Got 'milk'? Dairy farmers rage against imitators but consumers know what they want, the author discusses the tensions rising with dairy farmers who feel as if the producers of milk alternatives such as almond milk or hazelnut milk are misusing the label ‘milk’, and directly competing with them.

The author counters that consumers know what they are buying and that it’s “unfortunate that the dairy industry is blaming milk imitators — rather than a change in consumers’ tastes — for its woes.”…

    The novel Like Water for Chocolate written by Laura Esquivel is a love story like no other I have read. As soon as I started reading this novel the main characters Tita and her mother, Mama Elena jumped out at me because they share similarities and differences to my Mother Engracia and my grandmother Ignacia who also went by Nacha for short. Engracia like the protagonist in the novel, Tita suffered emotional and verbal abuse from her mother. However, Engracia was different from Tita because she never ran away from her problems, but instead decided to face them even when she was suffering from her mother’s abuse. Nacha and Mama Elena are both not only strict, but cold and emotionless towards their daughters.…
