Welcome food group! Are you hungry?

Using this book, the food group will to delve into the different ethnic neighborhoods around Boston. There are 13 diverse neighborhoods to 'taste'. We will 'taste' not only with our mouths, but with our eyes, ears, noses and hands. We will visit markets, interview vendors, compare different structures and truly 'taste' each area. We will research the diversity of the city and the clash of immigrant cultures in one of the gateways to America: Boston. As a group, our goal will be to look into the melting pot, and define: What is American? So, you, as members of this group, will 'walk a little, nosh a little, and immerse yourself in Boston as you never knew it."(taken from back cover)

We will use this blog as a resource throughout the JUA process. This is an open forum for discussion, questions and comments. Furthermore, it will help us to share information with each other, and the rest of the 'world-wide-web'.
