This is documentation of the first taste of the Jamaican drink, Ting. Tasting a “pink” flavoured version of a drink that I cherished as child, forces a connection between childhood memories of the past and new experiences in the present. The original flavour’s taste recalls a time when I longed to be older, while the pink flavour’s taste becomes associated with a time in which I dread entering into adulthood.

Mushy Peas are just mashed up green peas typically mixed with butter and cream (I did margarine and soy milk) and salt and pepper. They are a British food often served with fish and chips. My mom’s side of the family comes from England so I grew up eating a lot of this type of food!
Sha Qi Ma, or soft flour cakes is a Chinese snack equivalent to rice cake in Canada. It is originally from the Manchu population which lives in northeastern China, but is now popular across China. The version I brought to class is a Fujian variance which is a little different from the Manchu version with the addition of sesame and eggs. You can get this in almost every Chinese market in the GTA area.
Ginger Candy was one of the first sweets I ever had as a child. Despite being Chinese, I have never visited China and all the authentic Chinese snacks I have ever had were imported to Canada.

| In Mexico, hot chocolate is made of water, not milk. To prepare the drink, one brings the water to a boil and then adds the cocoa. When someone becomes extremely agitated, it is said that they are “Like Water for Chocolate”. This expression is also used to describe a state of sexual arousal. In the tradition of Latin American literature’s magic realism, “Like Water For chocolate” tells the story of a woman and her lover who, having been denied marriage, find inventive ways of sharing their love. She can impart her feelings and desire through her cooking and everyone around ends up inadvertently participating in their passion. | |||
