For your Week 3 paper, explore American foodways related to the Thanksgiving hol
For your Week 3 paper, explore American foodways related to the Thanksgiving holiday, and compare and contrast them to the foodways of one named society of your choosing among foragers, horticulturalists, or pastoralists.
• To remind you, foodways are described on page 97 of Chapter 5 in the textbook.
• What “must” be in your own family’s Thanksgiving meal? What is typical in an American family’s meal? What “can’t” be in your own family’s Thanksgiving meal? How much of the Thanksgiving meal is produced/cultivated/grown by the people eating the meal, either in your family or in a typical American family? What is the gender division of labor of a typical American family’s Thanksgiving meal? How does that compare with the gender division of labor of your family’s Thanksgiving meal?
• Compare and Contrast these observations regarding an American Thanksgiving meal with observations of foodways of a foraging, horticulturalist, or pastoralist society of your choosing. The society you choose must be a specific named society of only foragers, horticulturalists, or pastoralists, preferably named in the Week 3 textbook reading (Shearn, 2020). What does a typical meal of your chosen foraging, horticulturalist, or pastoralist society look like? What does a celebratory meal of your chosen foraging, horticulturalist, or pastoralist society look like? How much of the typical or celebratory meal of your chosen foraging, horticulturalist, or pastoralist society is produced/cultivated/grown by the people eating the meal? What is the gender division of labor of a typical meal of your chosen foraging, horticulturalist, or pastoralist society?
• Create a 1-to-3-page, double-spaced paper describing the foodways. The paper must be formatted in APA Style, with an APA-Style title page, page numbers in the upper right, headings, parenthetical in-text citations, and a reference page. The headings must be centered on the line and formatted in bold and in title case. Include at least the following headings: Thanksgiving Holiday American Foodways, Foodways of (name the foraging, horticulturalist, or pastoralist society), and Conclusion.
• Paraphrase or quote and cite from the textbook and from at least one additional scholarly, outside source to support your points in the paper.
