So I have decided to follow its root, in search to know more about the food that I can't live without by booking a flight to the royal capital city during Mughal era, Lahore. After a long 8 hour flight I took a rickshaw way to my home from international Allama Iqbal airport, named after national poet. As the ricksha passed the crowded streets of lahore I could already feel my mouth-watering from smell of the spiced chicken tikka being grilled that I was forced to stop and buy chicken tikka for 80 rupees, seriously its so dam cheap thats like less then 8kr in Sweden, something I would recommend you to try too if you visit India or Pakistan . As the sun rises the important mission starts for me, the search on " biryani". So what is biryani actually ?

  • Foods Essay

    ...Foods to avoid: We asked Food Scientists a simple question: “What foods do you avoid? Experts from different areas of specialty explain why they won’t eat these eight foods. Food scientists are shedding light on items loaded with toxins and chemicals–and simple swaps for a cleaner diet and supersized health. Experts from different areas of specialty explain why they won’t eat these eight foods. Clean eating means choosing fruits, vegetables, and meats that are raised, grown, and sold with minimal processing. Often they’re organic, and rarely (if ever) should they contain additives.

So we decided to take a fresh look at food through the eyes of the people who spend their lives uncovering what’s safe–or not–to eat. ” Their answers don’t necessarily make up a “banned foods” list.

    ...Amendment Essay By: Christina Ramler Neil Gaiman once said, “The current total of countries in the world with First Amendments is one. You have guaranteed the freedom of speech. Other countries don’t have that.” At the time of the amendments’ creation, a vast majority of operating countries had not yet granted their people such freedoms. Granting every citizen of the United States this right seemed to have been an important landmark in this nation’s history. Along with others, this right is declared to the people in the first amendment of the constitution. The first amendment is the most important because it grants people freedom of speech, prohibits prior restraint, and declares the right to peaceable assembly. The first amendment is the most important because it grants the people their freedom of speech. This freedom is vital to expressing one’s own opinion of decisions that the government has made. An example of this right being denied is the current state of North Korea. Their citizens do not in any way have freedom of speech, and because of that they cannot criticize their government in order to improve it. Their government is very controlling and insufficient due to the people’s lack of rights.
