Iron Chief Reflection

Posted on January 17, 2019 by nathanr2016

This assignment was a very fun activity, I enjoyed working with my group

members, planning the meal, making it, and serving it to the judges. When we

were introduced to this assignment, I enjoyed watching the “Iron Chef Canada”

video, it was a very interesting show to watch and gave me an idea of what this

assignment would look like. Our group collaborated very well, we all agreed on

what food to make, were polite to each other, and were happy with what food we

made. I hope in the near future, if I join foods again, we get to do this activity

again, this time I would decide on something even more tasty and delicious. So

that the judges would pick my and my group members meal as the best. I had a

good time in this foods course, making a lot of delicious stuff, working with

people, having a good time, maybe I’ll join this class again next year Mr. Brett:)

Oct/Nov/Dec Lab Reflection

Posted on December 21, 2018 by nathanr2016

Halloween Cupcakes/Chicken Prep

Because for the cupcake lab, I enjoyed making and eating very much, but the chicken lab I did not but it was an interesting experience, learning how to cut up the dead raw chicken.

2. I only enjoyed doing the cupcakes lab, because it was fun making all the ingredients and decorating them, and then afterwards eating the cupcakes. Where as for the chicken lab, It was very grose, cutting up the meat and pulling it’s bones out (but like I said) an interesting experience.

3. The cupcakes did turn out the way I hoped because the help I got was my group members, my focus, and my teacher. All those things helped me make delicious, creamy, yummy cupcakes.

4. My 2 groups worked well because we all collaborated, were focused on task, polite to each other, and helped one another out when someone in our group needed help.

5. I would do nothing because if I just do everything I did the first time, our group and I will ace the labs.

A Place at the Table Assignment

Posted on November 13, 2018 by nathanr2016

Barbie, she coped with it by never giving up, continued to search for jobs, and took good care of her children while being poor. Rose and her family were poor on their farm and didn’t have enough food. How they coped with it is Rose couldn’t concentrate in school because of starvation, making her teacher concerned and thus helping organize the food bank for Rose’s family.
Americans might be more at risk because 44 million of them are on a program called Food Stamps.
I enjoyed watching this movie a bit, it was very interesting but one thing I payed attention to the most is that women Barbie because it was sad seeing how she didn’t have enough to feed her children, how she struggled taking care of them, and I liked how at the end the speech she gave.
I think some policies that could help those hungry are: Donation, and what they did in the film, “Chefs move to Schools Launch”. What I would do to help these hungry people are donate food or money.

Caffeine Myth

Posted on October 19, 2018 by nathanr2016

“Caffeine stunts your growth”

https://kidshealth.org/en/teens/coffee.html

2. https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/does-coffee-stunt-growth

These 2 articles both explain why this myth isn’t true, so it would mean that the myth is busted. Some examples from each article are:

“coffee doesn’t stunt a person’s growth. How tall you are mostly depends on your genes. Good nutrition is also important to reach your maximum height potential.”, “For some time, growing teens were warned that drinking coffee would stunt their growth. However, there is no evidence that drinking coffee has any effect on height.”, “The exact origin of this myth is unknown, but it’s thought to have something to do with the caffeine that is naturally found in coffee.”.

So basically this myth “Caffeine stunts your growth” is a false myth, giving for what I’ve explained to you about these 2 articles. If you still don’t believe me search up the articles links at the top, and read more about the myth.

Foods 12 September Lab (Sunflower Crepes) Reflection

Posted on October 9, 2018 by nathanr2016

Because this lab was the only one that I enjoyed eating.
Yes I did because the food was very delicious, and I worked well with my group.
Yes it did because at the end of the lab, the food tasted yummy.
Yes because we all cooperated, did are lab duties, were nice to one another, and all helped clean up afterwards.
Nothing because if I just do what I did the first time I did the lab, I will work well with my group and make the food properly.

Foods 12 Waste Plan

Posted on October 2, 2018 by nathanr2016

To me, I sometimes waste food at home, school, outside, etc. I am not proud of it, but I always try my best to eat all the food off my plate. Some areas for improvement of food wasting can be, the park, School’s, workplace buildings, etc. Some suggestion’s to reduce the number of food wasting in the society are: if you are going to waste food do it in a food wasting container, don’t waste food at all, donate leftover food to starving children, save food for a later time to eat unless it has gone bad. Be a better person and take care of food properly, because food is what helps us live.
