Also, however you define white in the US doesn’t necessarily apply to Latin America, where whiteness is achievable through wealth, education, and generations of “mejorando la raza” There’s no single objective “correct” definition of what counts as white bc race is made up

For anyone interested in American food in the twentieth century, this dive into food labels is fascinating.

Noviembre: Rachel Laudan se pregunta¿Qué significa cocinar? ¿Cómo definimos la comida? ¿Cómo y por qué evolucionan las tecnologías alimenticias? ¿Las cocinas migran? ¿Qué conectan a las cocinas con la política, la economía y la religión? Librazo.

Finally finished Rachel Laudan's @rachellaudan "From Mineralogy to Geology", man this lady isn't scared to speak up! The first printing was in 1987 but it reads pretty fresh to me!

@akhivae I could not agree with you more and the history of it, at least that we can trace, is fascinating. @rachellaudan once gave a great presentation on the foreign influences on Mexican cuisine. youtu.be/ShXJUOXZir8?si…

It's up. Starting a new season in conversation with the amazing Anne Mendelson on her book about the history of #milk. So much to grapple with, mostly the underlying fact: milk is not a #superfood. eatthispodcast.com/milk

‘Do people want these foods to be more expensive? More limited in how we can buy them?’ Anthony Warner, a food consultant, tells #Newsnight that targeting ultra processed foods could increase inequality.
