Initially, most publishers were not interested in Kim’s idea, but that changed when cooking shows featuring many famous chefs and children became popular on television. . A woman who is passionate about food and writes children’s books Thanks to her two daughters, Kim Zachman was inspired and spent a lot of time preparing familiar dishes in the United States such as peanut butter and fruit jam sandwiches, crispy fried chicken, and hot sauce. dog or pizza. She also has a special love for children’s books. In addition to writing articles for newspapers and magazines, Kim Zachman is not afraid to try her hand at writing books for young readers. Book There’s No Ham in Hamburgers: Facts and Folklore About Our Favorite Foods (roughly translated: There’s no “cold meat” in hamburgers: Facts and Anecdotes of Popular Dishes) is her most recently published publication. Sandwiches, hamburgers, hot dogs or pizzas are favorites among Americans. Photo: AP Images. Kim Zachman shared that composing for a young age was a challenge. The author must learn how to express words in a way that is easy to understand, using simple, short and close sentences. “It’s a constant learning process,” she said. Most publishers were not in favor of the idea of ​​writing books about the history of American foods. But “now, the times are different, and children are interested in food”, she confidently asserts. Interesting things about American dishes you may not know Kim Zachman shared that she was excited to learn about the foods that people love. Each story includes many aspects of history, interesting facts, nutrients in food and even instructions or recipes. For example, you need about 128g with each serving of peanut butter and sugar, add an egg to get the perfect cookie. Divide the mixture into small portions on the cake tray, press the dough ball with a fork to flatten, and finally bake at 176 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes. The story of the first deep-fried boneless chicken (bread crumbs), also known as nugget, is also loved by the female author. The dish has been sold at McDonald’s worldwide since the early 1980s. Anyone who watches American television probably knows kids love peanut butter and jam spread between two slices of sandwich bread. In fact, the dish has a starting point that has little to do with the little ones. Peanut butter and jam sandwiches began to accompany American soldiers during World War I and became popular in the military throughout the 1940s. When soldiers returned from World War II, they started making sandwiches. peanut butter and jam for my kids. Children in America love to eat peanut butter and jam sandwiches. Photo: Pinterest. Today, there are many brands of peanut butter available everywhere. But Mrs. Kim Zachman learned that, in 1910, in Kansas alone (USA) there were 21 different brands of peanut butter. The intersection of American cuisine Some American foods are actually versions of dishes brought by immigrants. For example, hamburgers originated in Germany, but this dish only started to become popular when an American came up with the idea of ​​​​cracking ingredients into a bagel. Speaking of another dish that is also round, pizza has been the food of the poor in Italy for hundreds of years. In 1905, Gennaro Lombardi, an Italian immigrant, opened the first pizza shop in New York City (USA). Now, New York-style pizza is famous all over the world. Pepperoni (dry sausage) is not something that is added to the traditional Italian pizza. It’s an American creation, stemming from German immigrants wanting a spicy hot dog. Kim Zachman said the influx of immigrants has contributed to American food culture in many ways. “When immigrants came to the US, not all of them were able to find work. So they started a food business with small mobile food vending machines,” she added. Hamburger is one of the foods that many people argue about the origin. Photo: There’s No Ham in Hamburgers. Not every story in author Kim Zachman’s books is true, some have been passed down by word of mouth for generations and remain untested. However, it can be said that the more interesting the stories that revolve around, the more likely it is to be accurate. The book of the American “pen” has 10 parts. She said she cherished writing about more foods. Donuts, tacos, cheese and macaroni (short, straight or curved tube noodles, often called nui by Vietnamese) will probably be included in her food book later. And one thing is for sure, the work is also for children. Make cheese-soaked pizza with pan at home To make delicious pizza does not need to be too fussy. You can learn the following simple recipe and make it at home.

Misconceptions about nutrition of parents will significantly affect the development of children. Illustration

The story shared by a Chinese couple on social networks recently made many mothers and fathers startled by misconceptions in how to care and nurture their children.

Vuong himself is 1.78m tall, his wife is 1.64m and his son Dao Dao is 12 years old this year, but he is 1.65m tall. The boy is nearly a head taller than most of his classmates, and it can be said that Dao Dao is the tallest person in the class. Mr. Vuong is very happy, feeling that his son will definitely be taller than 1.8m.

Being very interested in the development of his child, Mr. Wang took Dao Dao to the hospital to check the health, as well as the growth of the body or the age of the bones to see how much taller his son could be.

Amazingly, the doctor told Mr. Wang that the child’s cartilage gland was ready to stop growing and once it stopped growing, it would be difficult to grow taller in the future. In other words, although she has not yet begun to enter puberty – the stage of rapid growth in height, Dao Dao cannot grow taller. As a son, only 1.65m is a bit short indeed.

Mr. Wang told the doctor that they often pay close attention to the child’s nutrition and often feed him with bone broth every day. Starting from kindergarten, Dao Dao eats bone broth 2-3 times / week.

“Can not bone broth be fortified with calcium?”, Mr. Vuong wondered.

The doctor told Dao Dao’s father: “The bone broth contains very little calcium but the fat content is high. If you feed your child this type of fat-rich food regularly, it will easily cause fat accumulation in the child’s body. Too much fat will affect the baby’s growth hormone secretion, leading to early puberty, accelerating bone age, not beneficial for the child’s development.

Foods that affect the child’s height development, no matter how much they like it, should be limited.

Stewed bone broth

The bones are high in calcium but the broth is only high in fat. Illustration

Calcium content in bone is high, but calcium content in bone broth is very low, no matter how long it is simmered, calcium will almost remain in the bones and calcium content in broth will be very small. Conversely, after the bones are simmered for a long time, the main ingredient in the broth will be the bone marrow, which contains a lot of fat.

Therefore, children who use a lot of bone broth will increase the risk of obesity. Obesity is the enemy of children’s development, when children are obese, the aromatase content in adipose tissue will increase, leading to increased estrogen, increasing the age of the child’s bones and affecting the child’s development.

Soft drink

Children often enjoy drinking a variety of soft drinks. Although the taste is very popular with children, these drinks are not good for children’s height.

Carbonated soft drinks like Cola contain a lot of phosphorus but too much phosphorus will promote calcium loss, leading to calcium deficiency in children, affecting the growth and development of bones.

To make the taste even better, these drinks add a lot of sugar. White sugar is a high calorie food that can only provide calories for children, not vitamins, minerals, and protein … Therefore, children who drink these beverages can only gain weight easily without benefits. for height growth.

Cake

The ice cream used in bakery shops is usually vegetable ice cream, containing a large amount of trans fatty acids, which is not good for the child’s body. It only increases the amount of fat in the child’s body, makes the child obese and affects the height.

Fast food

Ingredients used in fast food are not guaranteed but add more spices like MSG. MSG will interfere with the absorption of zinc in the body, zinc deficient children will also affect height development and anorexia.

In addition, fast foods have a lot of salt, if they eat too much salt, they will eliminate excess sodium, when they excrete sodium, they will also excrete calcium, leading to calcium deficiency in the body and affecting child’s development.

Foods to help children develop height

Fish

Fish is one of the foods that help children develop the best height. Illustration

One of the best foods for height growth is fish. Salmon and tuna are two types of fish that are rich in vitamin D and protein. Children who use a lot of tuna will help increase height.

In addition, you should encourage your baby to spend a lot of time outdoors so that vitamin D in the sun can help absorb calcium well, so that the child can reach the ideal height.

Fresh fruits and vegetables

Consuming a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables is also very important for a child’s development. Fruits such as papaya, carrots, broccoli, spinach are foods rich in fiber, potassium, folate, especially vitamin A, which will help in the development of bones and tissues for children.

In addition, vitamin C in citrus fruits also aids in increasing height for children and also helps them to be healthier.

Milk

Milk is a calcium-rich drink that promotes development, while helping your baby’s bones become strong. Besides, vitamin A in milk helps the child’s body absorb calcium better. Besides, milk is also a very good source of protein, which helps in the growth of cells in the body.

Cereals

Grains are not only a great source of energy, but also a good source of fiber, vitamins, iron, magnesium and selenium. In addition, cereals are also very high in calories, play an important role in the development of children. Typically brown rice, pasta and whole wheat are foods that help children grow taller.

Soy bean

Soybeans are the most protein-rich foods in foods that help children develop a plant-derived height, which greatly aids in the child’s bone development.

Soy milk also contains more fiber, copper, iron, niacin and more phytonutrients than cow’s milk. This is very necessary for brain development, stabilizing the digestive tract for the child.
