A memory about specific food or dishes you ate or prepared and how food relates to your sense of culture, race and/or class. Or you might have a memory about how you or others used a food term was used as a description for your racial or cultural heritage. Or your memory might be about the space where food was prepared or consumed in your home or living space and how this connects to your relationship with food. Perhaps you have a different memory related to food and race, or food and class. All is welcome without judgement. 
Please include specific details of that memory (any taste, touch, smell, sound, location, who was involved, etc.), details about the food involved in this memory, and how it connects to your relationship with that dish or food item.
