What You Eat is Where You Are

This lesson is a variation on Mystery Quest and so could be called Food Quest. In a general sense, students will research the components of culture which could include:environment, economics, class structure, tradition, religion, geographical area, and advertising and their influence on the food choices of a locale or time period.

Although there is a wide range of locations and time periods that could be studied, we will be discussing French provinces in the middle school French language classroom for the purposes of this lesson.
