Food, fresh or convenient?
I’ve been interested in the history of food, where it comes from, how old it is, how it migrated to where it is now. In the last week I’ve learned so much about the foods we eat, and why we eat them.
The books I’m digesting right now are:
Food: The Struggle to Sustain the human community
Kitchen Literacy: How We Lost Knowledge of Where Food Comes from and Why We Need to Get It Back, by Ann Vileisis.
Near a Thousand Tables : A History of Food, by Philip Fernandez-Armesto
