Macaroni and cheese was started by, a man named Thomas Jefferson. When he had gone to Italy he brought back a pasta machine which then his daughter Mary Randolph became the hostess after Jefferson’s wife had past. “His daughter then made a dish using macaroni and parmesan cheese”. Which the parmesan was then replaced with every one’s fevered cheese known as cheddar cheese. “Now since the Kraft Company had put mac and cheese in a box in 1937 every kid in America then grew up with this dish.” There can’t bae a doubt that its ultimate origins are Italian. As one finds mac and cheese recipes from the late thirteenth century in southern Italy. The author had suggested using powdered spices, just like we do today, and with cheese if desired. This is the way that the Italians do it.

    Food has been a topic of deliberation and study for years, mostly due to its implications for the society and people who consume it. Many people research foods in different ways and use the information they gather to come to various conclusions about people, places, times, or things. Namely, in the article “Time, Sugar, and Sweetness” author Sidney W. Mintz poses a very compelling discussion on sugar for its use in history and for its use today, while in the article “Why Revolutionaries Love Spicy Food” author Andrew Leonard contemplates the success of the chili pepper in China. Furthermore, in “More Than Just the ‘Big Piece of Chicken’” author Psyche Williams-Forson explores the creation and prosperity of chicken-related black stereotypes. Out of all three articles, however, Mintz’s “Time, Sugar, and Sweetness” was the most cogent, as his contained more unique ideas, the best support,…

    Throughout my adult life I encounter many animated debates with my non-Italian friends over the difference of tomato gravy and tomato sauce. Most of the time they were usually satisfied with my family explanation, but after my recent Internet search I discovered the name “tomato gravy” originated from east coast of the United States. Some Italian Americans on the East Coast refer to tomato sauce as "gravy", "tomato gravy", or "Sunday gravy", especially sauces with a large quantity of meat…

    Describing the details on an ad could be a good starting point to begin the analysis. Kraft ad for its Macaroni & Cheese in Oct 2009 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine shows a girl standing on her right feet, with a smile carved on her face and an umbrella in her left hand. Beyond her are two boxes of macaroni and cheese of the same size, one of Store Brand and another one of Kraft, sitting right next to each other with the Kraft’s splashing a massive amount of cheese out of the box. What appears right above the bottom line, with all letters capitalized, is “KRAFT HAS MORE CHEESE THAN THOSE OTHER GUYS. SO GO FOR THE CHEESIEST” and with a bigger font right above it, is “THE MAC WITH MORE CHEESE”. Emphasis is on the color of the Kraft macaroni, the splashes of cheese, the girl’s boots, and the umbrella, as they stunningly boast the same magnificent orange color, unlike the one that is being used on the macaroni of the Store Brand.…

    The nutrition industry of The United States of America would be incomplete without the numerous, spontaneous, discoveries over time. A man in San Francisco accidently left his juice outside in the winter and it froze. He ate the frozen juice and came up with popsicles. America’s favorite chocolate chip cookies were also a mistake. When the Toll House Inn's Ruth Wakefield ran out of baking chocolate one day in 1930, she smashed up a bar of semi-sweet chocolate and added the pieces to her dough. Upon their removal from the oven, the cookies weren't uniformly infused with melted chocolate, but rather studded with little chunks throughout. The signature sweet put her Whitman, Massachusetts inn on the culinary map. These accidental discoveries are what made the food…

    Italian Heritage

    While the stereotypical Italian restaurant in America reliably serves up plates of hot pasta with tomato or cream-based sauces, this is far from true Italian cuisine. Or, at the very least, the stereotype represents only a small part of the many diverse and multi-regional styles that make up Italy’s total gastronomic picture. The culinary history of Italy is deeply indebted to cross-cultural currents of people and societies from over three thousand years of history that slowly defined the Italian peninsula as a geographical, political, and cultural…

    As most people say, “Bacon makes everything better,” I like to think that that is the case with mac and cheese, which can be put inside grilled cheese, pizza, breadsticks, or basically anything one’s heart desires. On the flip side, anything can go inside of macaroni and cheese as well—such as bread crumbs, bacon, spinach, or even goldfish crackers. In a world where I am constantly being told what to do, where to go, and what to say, it is alleviating to have freedom in at least one aspect of my life; making my favorite food allows me to actually be innovative and fearless of failure because if a recipe does not turn out right, I can always try again. With several different types of cheese and noodles, the possibilities are endless.…
