Book excerpt: Food is one of man's three basic needs, and it unites and connects people from all walks of life. The cultural practices, beliefs, and norms that surround the production and consumption of food are referred to as food culture. It primarily reflects our ethnicity and evokes nostalgic childhood memories. Religion, sexuality, and the market economy all revolve around food. The Cultural Politics of Food and Eating takes an ethnographic approach to understanding how people use food to make sense of life in an increasingly interconnected world. The proposed edited collection of essays covers everything from our daily food consumption to global food politics. There is really no refuting that newer perspectives on food culture make the collection more interesting to read.
