    By Private Chef Amalia Damgaard CHILEAN PANORAMA Although it appears slim and small, Chile is a long and narrow country about the size of Texas, with a vast coast line covering about 3,998 miles. The Pacific Ocean borders to the west; Argentina is a neighbor to the east; Bolivia, to the northeast; and Peru, to the north. Because of its geographical location, Chile has an unusual and fun landscape, with deserts, beaches, fjords, glaciers and icebergs, fertile lands, the Andes mountains, over 600 volcanoes (some active), and sub-artic conditions in the South. Since Chile is below the equator, their seasons are different from ours in the United States. So, when we have winter they have summer, and so on. Even though Chile had years of political and economic turmoil, it has evolved into a market-oriented economy with strong foreign trade. Currently, it has the strongest economy in South America, with a relatively-low crime rate, and a high standard of living. Chile is a land rich in beauty, culture, and literature. It is called “the Switzerland of South America” because of its natural splendor. World renowned poets, Pablo Neruda and Gabriela Mistral, won Nobel Prizes. The majority of Chileans are descendants of Europeans, namely Spanish, French, and German, and others in smaller numbers. Allegedly, the original inhabitants of the region prior to Spanish conquest were not natives but merely nomads who lived in the area. Their descendants are today about 3% of the population. A mixture of the so-called natives and European settlers is called “mestizo.” Today’s mestizos are so well blended that they look mostly European.

  • The Role of Food: Culture in Health by Mary Schneider, Heather Heidenreich, Courtney Klappenbach, Alida Melse
    1 The Role of Food: Culture in Health By Mary Schneider, Heather Heidenreich, Courtney Klappenbach, Alida Melse Abstract The central motivation for this research project was inspired by the rapidly increasing prevalence of obesity and diabetes around the globe. This led us to the evaluation of four coastal countries, including Japan, Greece, Spain, and Chile, and their relationship with diabetes and obesity. Our central question involving these countries was: what factors relating to culture contribute to possible predictions for health? We answered this question by evaluating several possible factors relating to each country including the physical environment, geography, types of food eaten, amount of processed food consumed, and the food preparation as possible predictors for health within these cultures. We explored these factors through methods using online databases including the Human Relations Area Files (HRAF), Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and World Bank. We also utilized resources such as the WSU library and search engines to discover peer reviewed journal articles. As a result of this, we found that the environment and geography were not adequate predictors of health and culture due to the fact that all our countries were similar in geography and still had various health results. We then found that the types of food consumed were also not adequate predictors of health related to culture since there was significant overlap in the types of food used in these countries. This led to the conclusion that when evaluating the culture around food in four developed nations, the most prevalent food-related indicator of health was the level of food processing and preparation.
