The final project, Cultured Cooking, featured a well thought out, detail-oriented presentation. What I liked about this presentation (aside from the free food) was that it was very informative and eye-opening. The group discussed that people are not as aware of other cultures as they should be, and a way to get people to become interested in other cultures is through food. Great idea.Who doesn't like food? They address the problem that people can't get invested in learning about other cultures because of the lack of money to fly to another country. It's almost like the group is introducing the idea of "if you can't travel, then we will bring the country to you" (metaphorically speaking).
What I like about their idea is that it is subscription based. Each month, you will get 4 boxes shipped to you that will contain cuisines based on the country of the month. You pay a fee every month for the 4 boxes, and for each box you receive, a secondary box is shipped to low-income families in need of food to eat. I like this because while you are educating yourself about foreign cuisines, you are also helping out someone that is less fortunate. So, it's a win-win situation. What they could do to ensure that the food gets shipped to people in need is partner with food banks in areas with a substantial amount of people with low income.
