I chose Anthony Bourdain's second book, The Nasty Bits which is about his travels around the world tasting food. It is nonfiction writing and this connects to my passion of cooking because I love to travel and similar to Mr. Bourdain, I would like to taste really unique foods of the world. I love cooking and being stimulated by interesting food. I also aspire to relate cooking or nutrition into my career - maybe I will become a chef or a nutritionist, I'm not sure. Also, I am really interested in learning about and understanding different cultures and social inequality and I think that Anthony Bourdain's travels definitely investigate the relation of food and culture.
An independent reading project that I am considering is writing an essay about how food relates to culture.
