Writing Assignment #4: A Food Narrative
Due: April 8
Length: 3 pages
For this paper, I would like you to write an essay describing your relationship to food. In the second half of this semester, we’ll be considering food in multiple ways, including how food – and access to good food – affects our bodies, minds, and moods; and how food is part of culture, politics, and history.
In this paper, you should begin thinking about your own personal relationship to food.
Some ideas you can consider including in your essay:
Are there specific food traditions in your family that are important to you?
What kind of access to food does your neighborhood have? What’s available? What isn’t?
If you cook, what kinds of things do you like to make and why? If you don’t cook, why not? Who does the cooking in your household?
If you work in the food industry, describe what that’s like.
Please pick and choose the ideas you prefer: you should discuss the things you find most interesting and important (you don’t need to include all the above suggestions!).
This paper doesn’t need a thesis statement, but it should have a main focus or main idea.
Formatting and other details:
Papers need to be double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font.
The heading at the top of your essay should consist only of your name and paper number/title.
A Works Cited page isn’t necessary.
