Food is important to me. Growing up Korean-American, I ate not only delicious melt-in-your-mouth In-N-Out burgers but also mouth-watering cold buckwheat noodles in broth. I saw myself through the lens of food. I didn't have to enjoy one culture exclusively; rather, I could easily live in both worlds.

For this project, I made an accordion book about the article "What Americans can learn from other food cultures" by Amy S. Choi. In the sections of the article, Choi discusses how varied cultures address food to suggest how American food culture could change its approach to food. To show the distinct cultures and parts of the article, I color-coded each section, but I kept the layouts' underlying grids and styles consistent to give the whole book a uniform appearance.
