What is the link to our unit (Culture) in regards to the British settlers?
The link towards our unit in regards to the British is the fact that we were later affected by what they brought over to us. For example, New Zealand wouldn't have Pavalovas or Fish and Chips if it wasn't for other countries sharing their foods and recipes.
What ingredients that you used today did the settlers not have and why might that be?
An Ingredient we used that not might've been used back in the day would be Jam, as jam might've been hard to find and would be something that only royalty used.
