People usually celebrate special occasions by preparing
special food. Families may prepare traditional dinners for holidays such as New
Years and Thanksgiving. Birthdays and other special days are often times for
baking special cakes. Even celebrations famous only in small areas, such as
memorial days for a place or event, can be a time for proud cooks to show off
the food that they make the best. Sometimes this food may seem a little strange
to the rest of us.
Weddings are celebrations where food is often an important
part of the ceremony or party. Of course, the kinds of food prepared for
weddings are different all around the world. One kind of food enjoyed at
weddings in the Middle East and some parts of North Africa by members of the
Bedouin tribe is roasted camel. This food is not easy to prepare, but when
people want to go all out for the wedding, they ask the whole tribe to help
with the effort. Tribe members first cook an egg mixture which they then put
inside cooked fish. These fish are then put inside several cooked chickens. The
chickens then get put in- to roasted sheep. Usually one or two sheep will be
enough to fill one roasted camel. One roasted camel serves 20 to 30 people, so
this dish may be enjoyed by the entire tribe at the wedding.
Chocolate chip cookies may not seem like a very special
food, but organizers of the yearly festival which celebrates the citys birth
in Ripon, Wisconsin made one cookie that was very special. On July 11, 1992,
festival organizers attempted to bake the largest chocolate chip cookie in the
world. It took the organizers months of planning and experimentation before
they thought up a way to bake the cookie on a large, slowly turning tray. The
recipe which the bakers used called for one and a half tons of raw cookie
dough, made up of a ~ of flour, sugar, eggs, and milk. They also mixed four
million chocolate chips into the dough. The tray itself was 10 meters (34 feet)
across the middle, and it rotated so that one art of the cookie passed over a
low flame that did not move. The cookie took two and a half hours to bake.
Organizers of the festival then cut up the cookie and served it to 8,163 people
at the festival.
