Today, on April 14, 2011, I have learned about many things. Much of that was about the creation of the Tabasco products, but I had also learned about a wealthy family of the 1800’s. In the Tabasco factory, I did learn how the condiments were made. The peppers are picked out of the fields when perfectly ripe, and are sent into the factory. They are then grinded up and put into barrels. They are left there for three years and the vinegar and salt is added after all the fermentation. The bottles are then shipped all around the world, no matter where the country is. Although countries all have their own cultures, almost all of them use Tabasco for their foods.
After this wonderful visit to the tabasco factory we learned about a family called the Weeks, a family who owned a large plot of land and grew sugar on it. They housed over three hundred or so workers in
their property. Now-a-days we obviously don’t have workers living on our property in to many places, for most crop is harvested by machinery. The day was full of fun and interesting information. We a headed to the airport with long faces sad because it was time to go, but we were all still having a great time and made the most of our time in the airport and on the plane.
