Context  Communities  endeavour  to  obtain  an  adequate  supply  of  food.  Throughout  human  history,  the  availability  of  food  has  been  determined  by  local  and/or  external  in=luences.  Selection  of  food  is  in=luenced  by  physiological  and  psychological  factors  as  well  as  broader  social  and  economic  factors.

1.  Global  Migra1on  of  Cultural  Groups  

When  people  move  from  one  country  to  another  or  to  another  part  of  their  own  country,  they  bring  the  desire  for  and  knowledge  of  the  foods  they  already  know.      What  is  the  effect  of  this?      

Page 9: TOPIC1 - Weebly · Context& Communities*endeavourtoobtainanadequatesupplyoffood.Throughout human*history,*the*availability*of*food*has*been*determined*by*local*and/or*

Effect:  The  loca1on  they  have  moved  to  may  gradually  introduce  the  new-­‐comers’  most-­‐preferred  foods  into  the  local  diet.      Some  of  these  foods  become  part  of  the  daily  diet  and  are  called  staple  foods.  To  be  classed  as  a  staple,  the  food  must  be  readily  available  to  most  of  the  popula1on  and  must  provide  the  major  source  of  energy  in  the  diet.      Staples  may  be  of  plant  or  animal  origin  and  vary  from  region  to  region.  They  are  generally  inexpensive  and  more  plen1ful  than  other  food  sources.

Most  cultures  throughout  the  world  have  at  least  one  staple  plant  food.    Cereals  are  the  most  common  plant  staple.  They  are  edible  grains.

Root  Crops  and  Legumes  are  also  a  main  component  of  the  diets  of  many  people.  Root  Crops  –  plants  whose  edible  por1on  develops  beneath  the  ground’s  surface.  Legumes  –  seeds  within  the  seed  pods  of  many  plants.

Nutri1onal  Benefits:    Plant  foods  are  an  excellent  source  of  complex  carbohydrates  (starch  and  dietary  fibre).      Cereals  and  legumes  also  provide  a  substan1al  amount  of  protein.

Staple  Plant  Foods  Wheat  •  Wheat,  a  cereal,  is  the  staple  crop  eaten  in  more  countries  of  

the  world  than  any  other  staple.    •  Most  varie1es  of  wheat  prefer  wheat  condi1ons  during  the  

growing  season.    •  Gradually,  as  more  people  from  the  Middle  East  and  the  Nile  

valley  moved  and  seAled  in  new  lands,  the  produc1on  of  wheat  became  more  widespread.  

•  Wheat  became  a  popular  cereal  because  it  is  a  versa1le  food  source,  par1cularly  because  it  can  be  ground  into  floor  and  used  to  produce  breads,  cakes,  pasta  and  noodles.

Rice  •  Rice  is  a  staple  food  of  Asia,  origina1ng  from  South-­‐East  Asia.    •  It  needs  a  warm  climate  and  large  quan11es  of  water  in  order  

to  grow.    •  Rice  can  be  prepared  and  consumed  in  different  ways  (boiled,  

steamed,  made  into  rice  flour).

Meat  &  Fish  as  Staple  Foods  •  Animal  staples  have  also  moved  throughout  the  world  as  

people  have  migrated.  •  In  Australia,  the  animal  foods  that  form  our  staples  today  did  

not  exist  250  years  ago.    •  Beef  has  become  a  staple  as  it  is  the  most  commonly  

consumed  meat.  The  increased  demand  for  beef  is  linked  to  the  popularity  of  dishes  from  various  cultural  backgrounds.  

•  People  living  in  coastal  areas  or  coun1es  surrounded  by  water  (such  as  Pacific  Islands  and  Japan  have  ready  access  to  fish  and  seafood.
