Geography of Food Exercise: Checklist (Rubric) Include your name, date, and a title in the first page of your work. Your work must include the following sections in this order: Title, Table, Map, Essay, and Bibliography/References. 1) Table (25%)*: Your table must include the following information: a) A title with the name of the dish and the claimed country of origin of your dish at the top and before introducing your table. b) The table must include two columns with the following information:

b.1) First column: a list of at-least 10 ingredients. If using a by-product of any plant or animal, then the main source of your ingredient must be included first and then, using parenthesis, include the name of the by-product. For example: tomato (paste); goat (cheese); wheat (flour), olive (oil). If your dish does not include 10 ingredients, you can add sides to complete this requirement (i.e., a salad, steamed vegetables, etc. that are traditional “companions” – sides- when these dishes are served). b.2) The second column must include the region of domestication of these ingredients using the “Centers of Plant and Animal Domestication” map provided, or any other reputable source. If you are using another source, meaning a reputable source (which must be included in your Bibliography), the regions of domestication of these ingredients must be included in your table using the regions provided on the map. For example, if the source you are using states that an ingredient was domesticated in ancient Egypt or Mesopotamia, this ingredient would have been domesticated in the Mediterranean or the Southwest Asia region of domestication, respectively. If your dish includes an animal or plant that is native (also called indigenous) to the claimed country of origin of your dish, you must include it in your table as “native” or “indigenous.” In most cases these will apply to seafood caught locally or salt. If your dish includes an ingredient that was domesticated in two regions, use only one of these regions in your map. This is the case of cattle (Mediterranean and Southwest Asia) or rice (West Africa and South and Southeastern Asia). It is also important to mention that, although chili peppers are only included in the map provided in the Meso- America region, these were also domesticated independently in the Andean Uplands; this is the reason I include them in the sample provided as a native ingredient. If you are using a dish that is original from a country that includes two regions of domestication (i.e., Colombia: Andes Uplands and Meso-America), then you will have to consider the specific origin of this dish (if it is from the north or Caribbean coast of Colombia, it will fall under the Meso-America region of domestication), or you must select only one region as native and the other one as a separate region, but not both as native for that specific dish. If this is the case, this fact must be noted in your essay.

c) Although not required in this section, your work may include a chart with the basic statistics of your dish next to your table. This information is required to be included in your essay when you answer the ‘where’ question (origin of these ingredients). In this chart you must include the contributions of each region of domestication to the make-up of your dish. Completing this portion will be very easy because you are required to include ten items (ingredients) in your work, and each item equals to ten percent of the total number of ingredients included in your dish (i.e., 5 items will correspond to 50%). *Note: If your table includes incorrect information (plants and animals not domesticated in the regions cited in your work/table), this fact will make your work inaccurate (including your table and essay), and will be reflected in your grade (5% discount in the final grade for each item that falls within this category). 2) Map (25%)*: Your map must include the following information: a) Title (i.e., “The Geography of _________” (name of your dish)). b) Orientation arrow pointing to the geographical north. c) A legend that includes all symbols used in your map (i.e., flow lines, native ingredients icon). d) Labels:I need an essay about enchiladas(Mexican Food) 800 words essay, map, and table. I will post the rubric, instruction, and example. I also have some comments from the professor that should help a lot. For today before 12 guarantees.
