 * How does your heritage affect the food that you consume in your home?** Kay eats and cooks the same food here that she are in Africa. They only eat one type of meal everyday which is potato grains, a leaf like plant, with fish, beef or chicken. She also fries plantains to eat. The only fruit they have are bananas, oranges and mangos. She has not tried different food here because she was used to only one thing and likes it.

Kay buys most of her food from the African market in Darby, Pa. near her home**.** (Briana White, friend, 5/2010)
 * What marketing practices does your family use in order to obtain the supplies needed to prepare food from your native country ?**

They do not have any Holiday Traditions that incorporate food. For example they would eat the same meal of potato grains with meat or fish. The only difference is that they may have a little more meat. If they were going to someone's house, they might bring them some of the fried plantains. Kay cooks the same thing everyday for her family. (Briana White, friend, 5/2010)
