Growing my own food

Growing my own food was an interesting experience. I feel that it didn't really affect me that much because sprouts are not exactly my choice of meal. If it was something that I was more likely to want to eat I may have had a different view on it. Lets say it was strawberries. I would have payed a lot more attention to the strawberries. But still growing the stalks was a good experience. They didn't really look like they were going to taste very good but they ended up tasting not half bad. They tasted a lot like grass but better. I had mine on a sandwich with ham. I really liked it with the sandwich compared to alone. I feel like since this was something that we had to do it took out all of the growing your own food feeling out. It was more of just an assignment rather then providing for yourself. There was no love in the growing, just more work. But I personally found this to be pleasant and interesting.
