 * What is the name of your home town?**
 * How does your heritage affect the food that you consume in your home?**

In our household we eat a lot of red meat and potatoes. Most meals are paired with vegetables or a salad. We eat bread and cheese with almost every meal. Fish is very popular in our household because Montenegro is right by the sea. - Ivana, 3/16/09 Mother

There are many Russian and Polish stores around Philadelphia that have similar products like those in Montenegro. There are no Montenegrin stores that I know of. - Ivana, 3/16/09 Mother
 * What marketing practices does your family use in order to obtain the supplies needed to prepare food from your native country ?**

In Montenegro every family has a Saint that they celebrate once a year. There are certain foods that the families should eat on that certain day. For our family we celebrate St. Nicholas on December 19 and it is tradition to eat only fish and no meat products all day. - Ivana, 3/16/09 Mother
 * Give an example of a holiday tradition in your home that incorporates food into the celebration.**
