Your project reminds of a series of grass roots organizations throughout the US which use food in order to built bridges and raise awareness. One such examples from Pittsburg is http://conflictkitchen.org/ - where Americans are invited to consume foods from countries with which the US is at war (much to be discussed here, I believe, but an interesting way to bring cultural difference into conversation). Keep us posted about your findings!Irinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17349821578571319491noreply@blogger.com
