My topic discusses how immigration into the United States, and the subsequent ‘foodways’ that came with it, affect \u00a0not only of food in the United States, but the overall culture as well. Foodways (as defined by this article<\/a>) are the preferred foods and circumstances of eating of immigrant groups. Essentially I will be discussing how the food culture in America is shaped by the food cultures that have migrated here from around the world. This topic is especially important to me because both of my parents were immigrants to America and because of this, I grew up in a different culture than many of my American friends.<\/p>\n

At this moment, I have tentatively selected Italian, Irish, and Jewish immigrants to focus on as examples. Should I change these or add any other immigrant groups? I found this excellent source written by Hasia R. Diner<\/a>\u00a0for all three of those immigrant groups together, as well as a handful more examples for each. However, I am still unsure if these are the immigrant groups that I want to focus on for my examples.<\/p>\n

My idea at the moment is to discuss how each of these different groups affected the United States culture over time. I would like to have some sort of chronological organization to the annotated bibliography. However, as I delve farther into my research, I have started noticing that the timelines are not laying out as smoothly as I had hoped. I may have to switch up my plan and start organizing by group since the timelines tend to be spread out and overlap.<\/p>\n
