Excellent "food for thought" from Mr. Yamashita's presentation. Many lesson ideas for my fourth and fifth grade students. Food is always a great way to hook children into academic study and exploration. It would be interesting for students to learn about the 18th century tea trade taken over by the British from the Dutch in the 18th century and then to compare and contrast this with the current development and global expansion of ramen. Interesting immigrant thread in the Taiwanese birth of such an influential personality on modern living in Japan.
