Food and Culture
Culture includes the beliefs, values, and behavior shared by a group of people
The culture you live in is reflected in your everyday life-not only in your clothes and language but your food habits
Culture influences what foods you eat, when you eat them, and perhaps where, how and with whom you eat.
