Food describing( Academic skills)
This activity is about describing about the food that each of us brought. The food brought has to be related to our own culture. Each of us were given a taste without looking what it is then describe the taste of the food.
My description to food from:
Satish
His food taste sweet like a cakishish feeling and can also feel the taste of eggs.
My prediction of the color of his food would be white or orange.
The texture of the food is like a potato or ubi.
Emily
The taste of her food is a little tasteless, some spicy taste like from a BBQ sauce and a bit of shrimp taste.
I think the color would be black or brownish because of the BBQ feeling.
Feels like meehoon.
Aisyah
Its taste like a lot of vegetables mixed together raw, some spice, might contain sambal or belacan and some peanuts.
The mixed taste makes it hard to describe the color but i would predict it to be brownish for its belacan sauce.
The feeling of many vegetables like the majority of it are beanstalks and maybe a bit of mee feeling.
Samira
The taste is bitter. VERY bitter, almost too hard and bitter to swallow.
The feeling alot of stuff mixed in it makes me think it would be black.
