Final projects for CDHS students in the Edible History elective class with Ms. Giarrusso consisted of designing food truck businesses that would be most likely to flourish in the Cairo-Durham community. The students prepared a signature dish for judges and researched the history of key ingredients. Students were also faced with a number of challenges throughout the cooking competition.
Great work, students!
