{"product_id":"9780698186453","title":"Fed, White, and Blue: Finding America with My Fork","description":"Simon Majumdar is probably not your typical idea of an immigrant. As he says, “I’m well rested, not particularly poor, and the only time I ever encounter ‘huddled masses’ is in line at Costco.” But immigrate he did, and thanks to a Homeland Security agent who asked if he planned to make it official, the journey chronicled in \u003ci\u003eFed, White, and Blue\u003c\/i\u003e was born. In it, Simon sets off on a trek across the United States to find out what it really means to become an American, using what he knows best: food.\u003cp\u003eSimon stops in Plymouth, Massachusetts, to learn about what the pilgrims ate (and that playing Wampanoag football with large men is to be avoided); a Shabbat dinner in Kansas; Wisconsin to make cheese (and get sprayed with hot whey); and LA to cook at a Filipino restaurant in the hope of making his in-laws proud. Simon attacks with gusto the food cultures that make up America—brewing beer, farming, working at a food bank, and even finding himself at a tailgate. Full of heart, humor, history, and of course, food, \u003ci\u003eFed, White, and Blue\u003c\/i\u003e is a warm, funny, and inspiring portrait of becoming American.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Temple Publications International, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47067442970864,"sku":"9780698186453","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780698186453_p0.jpg?v=1763614850","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780698186453","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
