The Book’s grassroots approach to foodways reveals the global origins of food traditions, the forces that shape food traditions, and the distinctive cultural collaborations that have occurred among Africans, Asians, Europeans, and Americans throughout history. Hog and Hominy shows how food can be an indicator of social position, a site of community building, and cultural identity.

ADD Warning

For those, like my wife, who can’t stand typos, watch out! I have severe ADD which kept me from moving forward with this blog for too long. My friend encouraged me to start blogging and just disclose my disability the same way I do on the first day of class as a college professor. Folks I regularly make spelling mistakes because of my disability. In order to get two books and several academic journal articles published I use a professional copy editor. To blog that would take too much time and money. So if you can overlook my typos, enjoy my musings.
