Ako Ando "Chicken Noodle Soup"

I chose Chicken Noodle Soup for this essay.
This American food is popular in America as a home remedy.
Home remedy is food or custom which is not proved scientifically to cure cold, but it is inherited from generation to generation traditionally in the family or in the country because it is said to be effective against cold. The image of all American food I have had before was very bad for our health and beauty, but my image toward American food became a bit better by knowing culture of American home remedy.
About one year ago, one hip-hop song and one dance style were getting very popular in America especially around New York. The title of this song and the name of this interesting dance style are also both "chicken noodle soup". I found some videos relating to it, so I would like to put them on here!

But I couldn't put videos on this page...I don't know how to do it...so I copied and pasted URL. (゜へ゜)

FUMI OSOGAMI^^ Amrican food and culture

As for American food and culture, I have thought why American were more likely to gain weight. Needless to say, the plausible reason is that Amrican food is greasy and high-caloric and large in quantity. Im my opinion, in addition the foregoing, most sweets such as muffins, doughnuts, cupcakes..etc include a lot of suger are cheaper than other foods, so American people are easy to have them. I think that is one of the causes of obesity.

The meaning of food?

The Meaning of Food is an exploration of culture through food. What we consume, how we acquire it, who prepares it, who’s at the table, and who eats first is a form of communication that is rich with meaning.

“Tell me what you eat, and I’ll tell you who you are,” wrote renowned gastronome Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin in 1825. Explore how food shapes us and our culture.
