Our approach to food production and food service is not value neutral. Through the creation of food, from raw ingredients to finished products, and through the giving or serving of food, we express a myriad of mores, social and cultural norms, anxieties, and personal neurosis. Though these webs of interrelated processes may be socially and personally challenging, their examination fosters community awareness and the opportunity to live, produce and consume with greater care and understanding, both socially and personally.

A little window into my life....

I am up at 6 am on Sunday, having breakfast and getting ready to go to work.  I wash a pear.  I need to dry that pear.  I look for paper towels..in the oven...In the oven??!! Yes, in the oven.

My husband was never much of a 'bachelor'.  He kept his apartment clean.  He did his laundry and dishes.  He did not own oversized leather furniture.  Even his large TV is of modest proportion.  But he did and still does keep paper towels and toilet paper in the oven.  I thought this was unique to him, until my sister confessed that her boo also keeps paper goods in the oven...**

Um...guys, what is up with this?  It is just plain weird....

** Correction:  I misremembered the facts as my sister presented them.  It was not her boo who keeps paper goods in the oven but her boo's friend who keeps his home brewing materials in the dishwasher.  Sorry for the misrepresentation Mr. P.
