The newest picture book by Mia Wenjen, MBA '93, "The Traveling Taco, The Amazing and Surprising Journey of Many of Your Favorite Foods," is set to be released May 6. The book is an exploration of the history of kids’ favorite foods from around the world.

From the press release:

Did you know many well-known dishes are food immigrants? The Al Pastor Taco traveled from Lebanon to Puebla, Mexico! French fries originated in Belgium! And pasta arrived in Italy long before Marco Polo visited China.

From pizza to pasta and ice cream to French fries, some of our favorite foods have a surprising history, and many of them have traveled far from where they originated!
