1 Learning different foods， eating habits，and mealtime traditions can help us under?stand， appreciate， and embrace people fromdifferent backgrounds later in life. Here are afew practical tips you can try at home to introducediverse food traditions.

2 Know the foods cultural significance. Food culture is often controlled by religion，geography， lifestyle， and family beliefs. By learning the cultural significance of certainfoods in specific parts of the world， we can make our dinner experiences a lot more interesting.A great way to do this is by researching food traditions online or by talking with friendsfrom different nations.

3 Cook and eat together. We can cook at home as a way to occupy ourselves， savemoney， and eat healthier. And we also can plan a“travel through palates”series for ourselves，cooking foods from a different destination each week. It is more fun to experimentwith new foods if the entire family is on board with the process.

4 Play food careers. Television shows have made us more interested in the culinary （烹飪的） arts. Besides involving the entire family in the kitchen， we can also play creativegames that mirror popular cooking shows and food professions， such as playing the role of a?chef， cooking competition judge， food blogger， or restaurant critic.

5 Encourage a polite bite. Understand there will be times when the dish in front of us isjust not appetizing. But we should have an open mind and always accept whatever we are offered，even if it is only to take a small polite bite. Set an example by tasting it first and reactingin a gracious way. Once you enjoy a certain dish， other family members are alsolikely to be curious about it and not want to miss out on the shared experience.

6 Fortunately， pop culture has showed food experiences in school and is educating usnot only to accept， but also to be grateful for the food of other civilizations.
