In this assignment, you will:
- Research breadmaking steps over the millennia and discuss how technological developments facilitated a shift to industrial bread production.
- Argue whether centralized large-scale bread production is a benefit or problem for the U.S.
To be specific, you will:
- Use specific technologies brought up in the White Bread reading as a starting point for your research.
- Use the the internet to research the technological developments that facilitated a shift to industrial bread production. Note: The technological developments can be anything that interests you (e.g., the oven, a modern machine, etc.).
- Argue whether centralized large-scale bread production is a benefit or problem for the U.S.
- Take a stand on whether you feel the development in breadmaking is positive or negative. Explain why.
- Include a minimum of two reputable sources to cite that put the science or social implications of that technological development into a broader context.
