Never Sceconds

What do you think of Martha Payne and what she accomplished?
She is a little girl yet, but she can write the blog better than us.
she accomplished to tell us the importance of the food.

What are your memories of your school lunches?
I did not like school lunchs because it was not good.
However, I enjoyed the lunches with my classmates, so I remember the time.

Did you feel that you had any input on the nature or quality of your school lunches? I felt input when I was elementary school student because there were so many types of vagetables.

What do you think of the dining facilities at AGU and how do you think they can be improved?I think there are many menues in AGU and it is good point.
However, the time of serving is so slow, so they work with more people. it is need more workers.

What creative way(s) do you think we (individually or as AGU students) can help others in the world less fortunate than us...especially in connection to food?  We should send foods to ather countries. We have so many foods in the markets or shop and we often do not use these commodities. So, if there are many foods, we should send it to the countries and help people.

Title: Food and culture in contemporary in American fiction
Author:Lorna Piatti-Farmell
Year of publication: 2011


Establishing an interdisciplinary connection between Food Studies and American literary scholarship, Piatti-Farnell investigates the significances of food and eating in American fiction, from 1980 to the present day. She argues that culturally-coded representations of the culinary illuminate contemporary American anxieties about class gender, race, tradition, immigration, nationhood, and history.
