  • Slide 5
  • So Where DID the Sandwich Come From? In the late 1700s, a French write observed and wrote about the fourth Earl of Sandwich, John Montagu, who enjoyed playing cards. A minister of state passed four and twenty hours at a public gaming- table, so absorpt in play, that, during the whole time, he had no subsistence but a piece of beef, between two slices of toasted bread, which he eat without ever quitting the game. This new dish grew highly in vogue, during my residence in London; it was called by the name of the minister who invented it (pbs.org).
  • Slide 6
  • Around the same time Edward Gibbon, First Lord of the Admiralty was the first person to pen the word sandwich as we know it. On November 24, 1762, he wrote in his journal: That respectable body, of which I have the honour of being a member, affords every evening a sight truly English. Twenty or thirty, perhaps, of the first men in the kingdom, in point of fashion and fortune, supping at little tables covered with a napkin, in the middle of a coffee-room, upon a bit of cold meat, or a sandwich, and drinking a glass of punch (pbs.org)

  • Slide 9
  • Where Did the Hamburger Originate? Hamburg, Germany, perhaps? The idea originated here Beef from German Hamburg cows was minced, seasoned then formed into patties - a gourmet dish German immigrants arriving in NYC and Chicago opened restaurants, many offering the Hamburg steak During the Industrial Revolution, factory workers were served Hamburg steak from food carts. The idea of sandwiching the meat patty between two slices of bread arose to make eating and standing easier. The Hamburg sandwich was born. (Avey, 2013).
  • Slide 10
  • Can you name some classic holiday foods?
  • Slide 11
  • Classic Holiday Foods (Ronca, 2009) 10) Roast Goose now we often substitute turkey 9) Pumpkin Pie - Pilgrims filled a hollowed out pumpkin with milk, honey and spices, baking it in hot ashes on the fire 8) Green Bean Casserole-1955 Cream of Mushroom Soup, green beans and French fried onions - baked in a casserole - a ubiquitous holiday side dish 7) Corned Beef & Cabbage more popular in America than Ireland 6) Collard Greens & Black-eyed Peas According to Southern folklore, eating these foods on New Year's Day will bring luck and prosperity. The peas supposedly represent coins and the greens represent paper money
  • Slide 12
  • Classic Holiday Foods (Ronca, 2009) 5) Latkes - small cakes of grated potatoes fried in olive oil they are an important culinary part of Hanukkah which commemorates the Miracle of Oil 4) Egg Nog - Beverage of eggs, sugar, milk and typically alcohol: bourbon, rum & brandy 3) Matzah - Crackerlike, unleavened bread eaten during Passover instead of regular bread 2) Ham - Traditional centerpiece of the Easter Sunday dinner table. Before refrigeration, meat needed curing (salted) By spring a ham would be fully cured (from the fall slaughter) 1) Turkey - It doesn't get much more traditional than a Thanksgiving turkey. Nearly 90% of Americans eat turkey as the main course on the Thanksgiving holiday

  • Weight Issues 36% of U.S. adults were obese in 2009, up from an estimated 15% in 1980 The median U.S. household income remained flat in 2012 from 2011. This may explain cash-strapped Americans eating more healthful meals cooked at home as they cut back on eating out. NPD data show that the average number of meals Americans eat annually in restaurants has fallen from a peak of 215 in 2000 to 193 last year. Many Americans associate weight gain with fat in foods not calories. The USDA study was based on interviews with nearly 10,000 Americans.
  • Slide 15
  • Eating habits of Americans today are shaped by policy from the 1970s Food costs were rising along with growing demand Agribusiness favored over small farms Cheap fossil fuels used for fertilizers and pesticides Efficient at producing calories. But at what cost? 1970 4 billion tons of corn 2010 12 billion tons of corn Why are Americans Fat?
