Try different foods

Resources

Foods to use
You can use anything from another country. If you’re struggling for ideas, it should be easy to find:

Croissant, madeleine cakes, brie, or camembert cheese from France.
Pakoras, onion bhajis, or plantain chips from India.
Kiwi fruit or pavlova from New Zealand.
Manchego cheese, olives, or tortilla (Spanish omelette) from Spain.

Instructions

Before you begin
Gather your foods and cut them into bitesized pieces.
Put each food in a different bowl (or on a different plate).
Fill the cups with water.


Taste time
Everyone should wash their hands.
The person leading the activity should give everyone a napkin and a cup of water.
The person leading the activity should show everyone the first food. Everyone should try to guess what it’s called, and describe how it looks.
Everyone should take a piece, and describe how it feels to touch, and how it smells.
Everyone should taste the food, and describe what it tastes like and what its texture is like in their mouth.
Encourage everyone to use describing words (adjectives) such as sweet, juicy, soft, or crunchy.
Everyone should talk about the food, and the country it comes from. Is it a surprising that the food comes from that country? What other foods come from that country?
Everyone should take a sip of water.
Repeat steps two to seven until the group has tried and talked about all of the foods.
