=Made in Louisiana=

From hot sauce to jewelry, there are lots of products made in Louisiana. You probably know that [|TABASCO] sauce is made in Louisiana, but do you know about the other products? [|Electronic Arts] is one of the biggest computer game companies in the world. They're created right here in Baton Rouge!

Our class will build a virtual store with information about some of these products. You'll find links to the stores on the left.
