What do you mean by "Where do these foods come from?" For instance California certainly grows all those items - BUT - they are not indigenous either to the region nor to the peoples who originally lived here.

OR

Are you asking about where did the grocery store procure the specific grapes, strawberries, etc. that they have on sale? In this case, stores are required to display what country the produce is from.



usually strawberry and grapes will be marked with "product of......", oranges generally come from florida...at least they do here on the east coast ...but i don't know about the others-I'm having the same issue with milk and frozen veggies! maybe the point of the assignment was about not being able to pinpoint where your food is coming from.....that is kind of scary...



ok
