After reading Geeta Kothari’s “If You Are What You Eat, Then What Am I?” (pp. 977 – 981), please respond to THREE of the following prompts. Provide 150 words per response, which will result in a total of 450 words for the assignment. 1.Kothari uses food as a way to explore the larger issue of cultural identity. How does she describe Indian and American food? What specific details does she include to help her readers understand the attraction of both Indian and American culture?2. A good title indicates what the piece is about and makes people want to read it. How well does this title accomplish those things? How does Kothari answer the question her title asks?3. For Kothari, cultural identity shapes, and is shaped by, the food one eats and the ways one eats them. Her reflection reveals a struggle between two cultures—Indian and American—and she worries that she cannot locate herself fully in either. At the end of her essay, she notes the following: “I worry that this antipathy toward dal signals something deeper, that somehow I am not my parents’ daughter, not Indian, and because I cannot bear the touch and smell of raw meat…I am not American either.” For those of you who struggle with a similar conflict, what is it like to live on the border between two cultures in the way Kothari describes? And for those who do not perceive themselves to struggle with the same conflict, what do you think such a struggle is like?4. Think about the kinds of food you grew up with and the ways they were similar or dissimilar to those of your peers. Reflect on the role food has played in your own sense of your identity—whether it be cultural heritage, your identification (or not) with your generation, your family identity, or some other form. *** You may also find an online full-text version of this essay here: https://kenyonreview.org/journal/winter-1999/selec...
