Diversity Challenge: Try a New Food
The first diversity challenge from the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Implementation Task Force was to learn a greeting in a different language. Thanks to all who participated! The winners of the challenge were:
- Chisholm Trail Extension District agents
- Jennifer Wilson
- Linda Gilmore
- Rachael Spriggs Clews
Now we want you to try a new challenge. As we celebrate the holiday season with families and friends, we challenge each of you to try a food outside of your primary culture! Below are a few resources to give you an idea of what a cultural food could be.
- https://www.canr.msu.edu/news/exploring_the_world_in_your_very_own_kitchen
- https://www.nutrition.gov/topics/shopping-cooking-and-meal-planning/culture-and-food
- https://extension.arizona.edu/sites/extension.arizona.edu/files/pubs/az1699-2016.pdf
We hope you will not only try a new dish but also learn about the history and culture that surrounds it and to think about your own culture and what food is important to you.
