Food has several symbolic associations that give meaning to how we experience particular cultures. It enables us to feel a sense of connection in a way a particular community uses ingredients to create local delicacies on specific events or to fulfil certain traditions. We all have experienced such moments where a particular distinct smell made us reminisce our childhood. Food really has the ability to propel us to another time, another place, and another culture without having to leave our table.
