  • Handout 6A: Food and Drink
    G5 M1 Handout 6A • WIT & WISDOM™ Name: Date: Handout 6A: Food and Drink Directions: Read the following text. Then, reread the text and annotate three to five things you notice and three to five things you wonder about. From the Nez Perce National Historic Trail website Food and Drink Fish were an important food for Indian families. They were caught in many different ways. Some tribes made hand-knotted nets, both large and small. Some of the tribes in the Pacific Northwest still fish with large dipnets, from a platform built up above the edge of the riverbank. Others use a seine net (pronounced “sayn”) to catch many fish at once. Some tribes made a fish trap from sticks. Others built dams with rocks, dirt, and fallen trees; they would then scoop the fish from the water with baskets. The Nez Perce and other tribes picked and ate many kinds of wild berries—strawberries, blueberries, wild grapes, huckleberries, serviceberries, currants, cranberries, and many more. Researchers have found there were 36 different kinds of fruit that Indians dried to eat in the winter. They knew what the plants looked like, where they grew, and when they got ripe every year. Berries were carried home in baskets and eaten fresh, but they were also dried and saved for winter. Huckleberries and other berries—such as serviceberries and currants—were often used by the Nez Perce to make a staple food called pemmican. Meat is sliced very thin, then dried, and then pounded or ground with stones to a dry powder. Chopped dried berries are added to the powdered meat, and then melted fat (such as deer fat or buffalo fat) is mixed in.

  • The Menu: Food and Beverage
    C H A P T E R • • • • 5 The menu: Food and beverage Introduction The menu is the primary selling tool of any estab- lishment that offers food and beverage for sale. For the customer it identifi es the items that are available, shows prices and any other charges and together with other external features may characterize the style of food service offered. From the establishments per- spective the menu should meet the objectives of the marketing policy, the catering policy and the fi nancial policy. The marketing policy should guide the catering policy so that the products on offer and the style of operation best meet the needs of the target market. The catering policy is concerned with the size and style of menu to be offered together with an appropriate style of service and this will impact on space requirements, level and type of equipment purchased, and the level of skill and number of staff required. The fi nancial policy aims to achieve revenue and profi tability to budget through pricing, cost control and volume.

  • Tea Fact Sheet – 2019-2020 Tea Is the Most Widely Consumed
    Tea Fact Sheet – 2019-2020 Tea is the most widely consumed beverage in the world next to water, and can be found in almost 80% of all U.S. households. It is the only beverage commonly served hot or iced, anytime, anywhere, for any occasion. On any given day, over 159 million Americans are drinking tea. Annual Consumption: In 2019, Americans consumed over 84 billion servings of tea, or (U.S.) more than 3.8 billion gallons. About 84% of all tea consumed was black tea, 15% was green Tea, and the small remaining amount was oolong, white and dark tea. Year-on-year, imports are slightly lower and green tea has increased its percentage of total imports vs. 2018. The U.S. continues as the third largest importer of tea in the world after Russia and Pakistan, and literally the only western country to grow in both tea imports and consumption. Approximately four in five consumers drink tea, with Millennials being the most likely (87% of millennials drink tea). Daily Consumption: On any given day, more than one half of the American (U.S.) population drinks tea. On a regional basis, the South and Northeast have the greatest concentration of tea drinkers. Iced Tea Consumption: Approximately 75 - 80% of tea consumed in America is iced. The RTD tea category softened ever so slightly, with tremendous competition from other beverages. Our view is Ready-To-Drink Iced Teas: about a 1% decline. The canned/bottled RTD tea segment comprised about 50% of total market share and is expected to assume a more modest growth of 1 – 3% CAGR over the next five years.

  • Lead in Drinking Water Fact Sheet
    Lead in Drinking Water Fact Sheet (Note: This fact sheet is applicable to public water systems only, not private wells. The Department of Public Health recommends that private wells are tested for lead at least once and then every 3-5 years when someone in the home is planning a pregnancy or if a child under the age of 6 lives there.) How does lead get into drinking water? Lead found in tap water usually comes from the corrosion/deterioration of pipes or from the solder that connects pipes to one another. Lead can also be found in some water faucets or pipes connecting a house to the main water pipe in the street. When water sits in leaded pipes for several hours, lead can leach into the water. How do I know if my tap water has lead? You cannot see, taste, or smell lead in drinking water. Ask your water provider. Your water company may post data about lead online. If your water provider does not, you can call them. You can also have your water tested. Call your local health department or search for laboratories in your area that test drinking water. There is a cost for having your water tested. Does a high lead level in my drinking water cause health effects? High levels of lead in tap water can cause health problems if you drink enough of the water. It is unlikely that water alone would increase blood lead levels. The level of risk depends on the person, the amount of lead in the water, and the amount of water you drink.
