    Atahualpa At Cajamarca Research Paper

    By capturing Atahualpa at Cajamarca, the conquistadors had essentially defeated the Incas. Without its leader, the rest of the empire fell easily. Pizarro demanded a massive ransom for Atahualpa, consisting of an entire room filled with silver and gold. He then executed him, replacing him with a puppet ruler. Although several rebellion attempts occurred over the next 40 years, all were unsuccessful, and the Spanish finally colonized the region in 1572 as the Viceroyalty of Peru.…

    Tex-Mex: Authentic Mexican Cuisine

    To begin with, Mexican cuisine in Texas started out with a famous dish called Tex-Mex. Moreover, in Debbie Gold’s “Women in Business” she states, “the name for Tex-Mex was originally the nickname for the Texas Mexican railway, which was located in Southern Texas” (Gold 42). In addition, Tex-Mex is the “mix of Mexican culinary traditions encountered by pioneers coming to Texas from other parts of the United States and other countries and bringing in their own flavors and cooking traditions with them” (Gold 40). Above all, Tex-Mex is not really an authentic Mexican cuisine but because Americans associate it as one Mexican cuisine restaurants embrace it. Likewise, Tex-Mex is an interesting choice to choose from when deciding where to eat out mainly…

    Kool-Aid: The Great American Desert

    Long, long ago there was a place that nobody wanted to go to. There was no population and nothing there. There was no specific reason no one wanted to go, it was just the name for the place that made it sound inferior. It was called the “Great American Desert”. I meen that is a terrible name, especially back in the olden days. Nobody would want to live in a place where it is always hot and air conditioning was invented. Also, there is supposedly no water. “The Great American Desert” was the old name for Nebraska. I know it is very hard to believe. There was a man by the name of Edwin E. Perkins. He was living a fine life that any indigent person would die for, but he just couldn't find his place. He wanted to invent…

    Colombian Food Research Paper

    The first and only presentation on day one was the presentation on traditional Colombian food. I enjoyed this presentation because the food was delicious and also provided an insight on Colombian culture. I have actually tried some of the food they presented to us before: arepas, tamales, and arroz con pollo. I remember trying them at a traditional Colombian restaurant, and the food given to us at the presentation was just as good, if not better. One similarity I found between Colombian food and American food was the etiquette we were taught. Putting your elbows on the table is impolite, and one must wait for the host to say “buen provecho” to start their meal. I found it interesting…

    A Food Desert Community

    A food desert is a community where the residents have little or no access to fresh, affordable, healthy foods. A place that could be considered a food desert near me would be Warner Robins, a densely populated urban area. Food deserts impact our lives because you cannot be healthy without fresh affordable foods, and our bodies need a certain amount of nutrients from those fresh foods. Without access to these foods it can do harm to ones health. Also it effects low income families that do not have access to fresh foods, especially the children in low income families that are not receiving the necessary nutrients from these foods. One potential solution could be to encourage others to start a garden wither it be on a large scale or a smaller…

To learn more about Mexican Culture I interviewed a friend named Sofia that used to live in Monterrey, Mexico.

Her father made home-made tamales for dinner and she made pineapple stuffed empanadas for dessert. After dinner, we discussed Mexican culture and traditions, her life in Mexico, and also her life here in America.…
