  • The History of a Bakery As We Have Delved Into Different Literature and Podcasts About Food, Much of the Literature Has Explore
    The History of a Bakery As we have delved into different literature and podcasts about food, much of the literature has explored the connections between family and our history, experiences and memories. Historically, food in terms of the humanities is something that has been previously unexplored due to the negative connections between bodily experience and social class; however, we have been making shifts towards seeing the importance of thinking about ourselves and experiences in terms of our senses and more distinctly, our memories and experiences through food. In this sense, the humanities are integral to food studies because it combines a previously unexplored topic to create new knowledge, particularly in relation to the intersectionality of defining aspects of our identities such as race, gender, class, and ethnicity. For my topic, I would like to interview Juan Gonzalez and talk with him about his bakery, La Sevillana and the Mexican foods and breads he sells there. His bakery has been around for many years and has been an important center in his community as La Sevillana not only serves as a panaderia (bakery), but also as a small grocery store providing the neighborhood with essentials such as medicine, water, flour and sugar. The humanities are integral to this because talking with him about his bakery and the historical significance of the foods and breads he serves there, I believe I can also represent the history and identity of the bakery. This discussion will also be Post-Colonial in nature because, in discussing the traditions surrounding Mexican foods and breads, I can discuss the religious and non-religious Mexican traditions celebrated in El Paso, Texas.

  • 1 Rachel Kittaka AMST 252 05.27.2011 Panadería La Loma
    Rachel Kittaka AMST 252 05.27.2011 Panadería la Loma Presents: A freshly baked history of Mexican American Bakeries In an ideal America, warm air filled with freshly baked pan dulce, colorful piñatas hanging from the ceiling, softly playing Mexican radio, and metal tongs in your hands that choose from an array of pastries all culminate in an understanding embrace of ethnic differences at Panadería la Loma.1 A truer rendering of this Mexican bakery in Southeastern Minnesota, however, likely reveals a range of customer perceptions: an exotic destination, a nostalgic taste of home, or simply a place to buy quality bread at a reasonable price. Writing on ethnic foodways in America, Susan Kal!ik states: “By ingesting the foods of each new group, we symbolize the acceptance of each group and its culture.”2 And yet, the complex differences among Panadería la Loma customers and employees suggest that the typical “us and them,” insider-outsider dichotomies in the field of ethnic studies offer only a surface-level introduction to an exceedingly rich cultural history. In search of deeper meaning, this essay seeks to use the idea of gender and ethnicity as “performance” to prod Americans beyond a symbolic acceptance of static individual differences, toward a better understanding of race and gender as things that “we do.”3 A historically grounded concept of ethnicity presented through the lens of “gender as performance” allows for a richer connection between the sameness and differences lived out by the unique range of Panadería la Loma’s customers and employees. Rather than merely representing ethnicity, Panadería la Loma performs an evolution of ethnicity based on Mexican 1 Pan dulce in Spanish literally translates to “sweet bread” in English and refers to a variety of traditional rolls and pastries that are quite popular in Mexico.
