I took an ethnicity class in college where I learned that in my family, we most likely ate only a couple of ethnic foods, and that was iffy--sauerkraut and carrot/raisin salad. Genealogy explained to me why my ethnicity isn't reflected in the foods I eat. My earliest ancestors (aside from the still unproven Cherokees) arrived in North America in the 1600s. I have one more recent immigrant ancestor who came during the California Gold Rush and one ggg-grandmother who came over during the Potato Famine, but other than those two, the others had generations in which to lose all traces of ethnic eating.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
