Food and Culture
Food and culture go hand in hand everywhere, and in this video about Thailand, you’ll get a sense of how one might tell the story of the overlap.
As you watch, what do you see that raises questions for you?
The places that appear in the video tell about how Thai people think about food. What do you feel like you learned about them and their culture in this video?
Can you make a list of five or six foods that say something about the culture of your community? If you were making a video about your community that centers on food, how would you do it like or differently from the video above?
