Bonny Wolf's Food Traditions

Food is something we all enjoy. It contains the essentials to sustaining life such as nutrients, fat and protein. But in a culture where shared meals are not that common as they once were, food also can create everlasting memories and connections with the people we hold the dearest. Bonny Wolf wrote a short essay called, “ Food Traditions: The Thread That Links Generations”, in which she states that, “Food binds families together, keeps generations connected and creates community” (Wolf 136). I strongly agree with this statement because not only do I have a treasure trove of memories all linked to food and family but also because there is so much evidence that provides back up for this claim.
