hey can some body help me figure out whats missing at the end to indicate what kind of source it is.
Toussaint-Samat, Mageulonne.The History of Food. New York: Barnes & Noble Books, 2003.
I don't see anything missing at the end. It looks like a standard, MLA-formatted book citation for a Works Cited page.
(See the word "Books" just before the date?)

MLA has updated. Now you have to include what sort of medium was used. in this case you should end with Print if a print source or Web if a web source.
The other piece might be in the teacher asked you to include the url.
