...Bread is the best thing since sliced bread Defined by Kerr and Thomson (1998) as a “food made of flour or meal and baked”, is a popular and commonly eaten food in many countries (Baker 2006). The practice of buttering bread, however, is perhaps a little controversial. Crusty (2006) sees bread and butter together, not only as tasty and satisfying, but also as a classic food combination. This opinion is questioned, however, by Ciabatta (2007) who suggests that some breads, particularly open-textured Mediterranean types, are better served more naturally without fatty spreads. He further describes how the flavour of bread can be enhanced by the use of olive oil for dipping. It is apparent, therefore, that not only is there discrepancy in whether bread should in fact be served on its own, but also regarding the type of butter, spread or oil that is most appropriate as an accompaniment. Indeed, Lardy et al (2007) discuss the overwhelming selection available and suggests that choice needs to be based on many different aspects. Considerations should include intended use, taste, colour and nutritional content. It would seem from this list that many of these aspects are quite subjective, with one person, for example, preferring the taste and colour of butter over margarine. Even nutritional content may vary in importance and significance between individuals. Although intended use would appear to be the one area where rationale should underpin choice, Lardy et al (2007) do not explicitly...

...Used To Decorate Cakes Red Velvet. Devil’s Food. Classic White. Angel Food Cake. Pound Cake. These are just a few of the multitude of cakes there are in the world. Not including the ones still to be made and discovered by future bakes of the world. Baking is traditional as well as a hobby to many. Unlike cooking, baking is specific. You have to follow recipes to the exact measurements. If not, a disaster is likely to happen and your cake will not be what you expect. Baking is sweet. Baking is history. Baking is today. Did you know that when red velvet cake was first made in the 1930’s it was called Red Devil? It was called this because chocolate cake is referred to as Devil’s Food and red velvet is in actuality a red chocolate cake. (Olver, 2014) Did you also know that baking records show that already in the years 2600-2100 B.C. bread was baked by Egyptians, who it is believed had learned the skill from the Babylonians. A relief signifying the royal bakery of Ramses features bread and cakes, some of these were shaped in the form of animals and used for sacrifices. Other early records, this time by the Greek scholar (Aristophanes 450-385 B.C), show the existence of honey flans and patterned tortes. According to Aristophanes, the ancient Greeks also had a type of doughnut made from crude flour and honey called “Dispyrus” a ring-cake that was submerged in wine and consumed hot. (Pfister, 2014) Now it is acknowledged, the Romans were a hearty, festivity loving lot and even though...

In the Roman period, only the wealthiest people had cake. It was made with the most expensive and exquisite ingredients that could be found. By the 19th century, ingredients became more affordable and recipes were easier to understand. Archaeologists had discovered cakes made with moistened, crushed grains in the Neolithic villages. Today, we would call this a biscuit or a simple cookie. A traditional cake is made up of refined flour, shortening or oil, sugar, eggs, a leavening compound, and some kind of flavoring. Cakes come in all different shapes, sizes, textures, and ingredients. From chocolate cake to cheesecake to biscuits, they are all part of our lives. We all eat cake!

...Chronic Diseases Your Name Class Name Date Instructor Name Chronic Diseases Cancer is a major cause of death in developed countries such as the United States. Over twenty percent of all deaths are caused by cancer of some type, although the percentage can be higher at younger ages. It makes sense to try to avoid developing cancer in the first place, especially since the treatments are often only partially effective and frequently almost as unpleasant as the disease itself. After many years of research and spending billions of dollars researchers have still not found what causes cancer. When it comes to risk factors you can control some of them, but not all of them. Those you can't control can include genetics or family history. The environmental exposures or behaviors that occurred in a person’s past should also be considered when determining risk factors. Those you can control include your current and future behavior, including diet and exercise, and your current and future environmental exposures, Risk factors are not absolutes, having one or more risk factors does not mean you will definitely get cancer, and avoiding risk factors does not guarantee you will be healthy. Genetic risk factors include certain mutation of genes that can make cells unstable, therefore a higher chance of getting cancers such as hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. Diet and exercise can become risk factors for cancer. There are changes a person can make in their life to lessen the risk...

In contrast, food in Hong Kong “is also an expression of cultural identity and the choice or rejection of certain types of food, the ways in which specific types of food are consumed and the context in which it is consumed tells us a lot about the culture” (“Food Culture”).

...AMY'S BREAD Amy glanced at the clock and moaned. It was 3:30 a.m., time to get up and head to her Manhattan bakery, but she hadn't slept all night. She had a big decision to make. "No," she muttered to herself; she had a multitude of big decisions to make. Amy wondered, "If I decide to expand, can I do it successfully? Can I find another trustworthy manager, like Toy Kim Dupree, to help me manage the staff and maintain bread quality? Can I find expansion;space in Manhattan? Should I close our current location and expand to a much larger space, thus eliminating the need to manage two locations? Should I look for a locationfor my wholesale production, or a space that would provide both retail and wholesale opportunities?" Amy's Bread, founded in 1992, served about 50 wholesale customers, including some of the finest restaurants, hotels, and gourmet food shops in Manhattan. Amy's Bread also had a waiting list of more than 30 wholesale customers from other quality restaurants, hotels, and shops.Amy thought, "I really want to meet their needs and accept their business, but any further production expansion in my existing space is impossible. I know I can't produce one more loaf without hurting bread quality, which is absolutely unthinkable! We are already working three shifts, and there is no more room for additional equipment."Amy worried that some of the customers on her long waiting list were on the brink of turning away.

...when I really didn’t appreciate what great artwork was offered there and some teenagers don’t really value the meaning of beautiful art and what the museum has to offer. There was so much to view throughout the museum that it really was hard to decide what artwork I could pick to write about. The very first piece that really caught my eye was on the 4th floor and the first piece through the doors of the exhibit. Displayed ahead was El Anatsui’s exhibition of international contemporary pieces called When I Last Wrote to You about Africa. Oasis, was one of the few “curtain-like” sculptures that I spent the most time looking at. Created in 2008, El Anatsui is a Ghanaian sculptor who is widely known for his sculptures that relate to African history and colonial experiences. From far away I feel like the artist wanted viewers to see the soft, subtle look of a woven, rippled quilt. Once I stood in front of it I saw what the piece represented. It was made of thousands of beer and liquor bottle labels. The texture seemed somewhat rough and bumpy due to all of the different variety of labels portrayed in the piece The sparkle of all the bright colors of red, yellow, gold and specks of white and silver intertwined was immaculate and the lighting that is was displayed above really helped to...
