A Taste of Egypt (thanks Mrs. Geib)

Thanks to Mrs. Geib we were able to taste test some great foods from Ancient Egypt. First we watched a short video (and took notes) about the foods of Egypt. Then we learned about the taste buds and how the foods we eat work in our mouth! Then we tried and took notes on the following foods:
Calmyrna Fig, Black Mission Fig, Fresh Pomegranates, and Dried Pomegranates.
Then we posted our thoughts and new insights on the class blog in THinkqeust. Fun and Ymmie!
