The reading An Expert’s Theory of Food Television’s Appeal.
 
Chinese language program Cooking Schools


        Comparing with other two readings, this reading is shorter and easier for me to read and finish homework. I was interested in and confused at the beginning of the article that the young men were not cooks, why did they like to watch food TV programs? They would not follow the cooking steps to cook for themselves and not admire the cooks’ skill.
        After reading, I realized that people liked watching food program because they needed to relax when they came back home from their work. Sometimes, watching this kind of TV programs can make you feel homesick such as when I watch Chinese food program, it made me nostalgia as an immigrant in America.
