The rebels were fighting for their independence because the United
States did not give it to them. The Philippine's were in a constant
struggle to gain independence after the Spanish stopped ruling the
country. This led to the Philippine-American War, and even after both
wars officially ended, some rebel groups continued to fight American
soldiers. Many civilians died from starvation and disease in comparison
to warfare deaths and English became the national language, instead of
Spanish.

Laura Esquivel is a Mexican writer, famously known for having written: "Como agua para chocolate" (Like water for chocolate).
In one of her texts, she describes how magical and unique were her experiences early as a child when being part of the "ceremony" her mother and grandmother would make in order to prepare the food they were going to eat. In one of those occasions, she was warned by one of the Help not to step on a corn kernel because the God of the Corn was inside it and she had to be respectful to it. Later, she moved away, left the kitchen stories behind, and learned all sorts of things. Among them, she realized the God of Corn belonged to the primitive magical thinking (mythic belief system of the native communities) of humans which has no place in the rational, scientific and modern world. Nevertheless, within the years, she saw herself repeating not only the steps to cook a certain dish but also the stories the women of her family would tell her. That way she integrated her past with the cooking and found herself stopping her own daughter from stepping on a kernel of corn, because, as she was taught, there it was the God of Corn. She learned to give the food the importance it was given many many years ago, especially the corn, which was a symbol of life, fertility and prosperity for the ancient Mexicans.
