Personal experience by Kathia Laurian

The taste of memories We all have some things that brings us back to our past, some are a tees, vestige or other clothing , some other mansard , smell or even a person ; but unmistakable something that reminds us of past times is to eat a special dish. Everyone at some point in their lives have been exposed to a meal that reminds them of something , either to their childhood when they ate grandma’s food or that time when they got sick and they got very spoiled with delicious dishes . Some memories when you first try a saucer can be of much happiness either because it was the time you declared to a certain person in a restaurant or because something happened and you met the love of your life. Also to try a meal may cause nostalgia for example when eating something you used to only eat with that special person who has died, you can also remember something very funny as when you used to mash the potatoes from school to start a food war, you ended up all dirty but you turned around laughing together with your friends. When you grow up there will always be a special meal that reminds you of those nights you ate with your parents and maybe at that time you did not want to eat it or maybe it was your favorite food in your childhood, over the years your life changes but food always tastes the same and it will still make you remember things of the past, as each bite is part of your life.
