"A call went out from the International Bears Association seeking students willing to participate in Taste the World by preparing a cultural dish to share with their fellow Mercerians. The theme of the event was not only to take our fellow Mercerians on a culinary journey but also to promote dialogue about the cultural significance of these dishes to their respective cultures," said Miranda Stephen.
