The family dinner, the client luncheon, the holiday spread--the
idea of people coming together for a meal seems the most natural
thing in the world. But that is certainly not the case for most
other members of the animal kingdom. In Feast, archeologist Martin
Jones presents both historic and modern scientific evidence to
illuminate how prehistoric humans first came to share food and to
trace the ways in which the human meal has shaped our cultural
evolution.
Jones shows that by studying the activities of our closest animal
relative, the chimpanzee, and by unearthing ancient hearths, some
more than 30,000 years old, scientists have been able to piece
together a picture of how our ancient ancestors found, killed,
cooked, and divided food. In sites uncovered all over the world,
fragments of bone, remnants of charred food, pieces of stone or
clay serving vessels, and the outlines of ancient halls tell the
story of how we slowly developed the complex traditions of eating
we recognize in our own societies today. Jones takes us on a tour
of the most fascinating sites and artifacts that have been
discovered, and shows us how archeologists have made many
fascinating discoveries. In addition, he traces the rise of such
recent phenomena as biscuits, "going out to eat," and the
Thanksgiving-themed TV dinner.
From the earliest evidence of human consumption around half a
million years ago to the era of the drive-through diner, this
fascinating account unfolds the history of the human meal and its
profound impact on human society.

Ghulam Bombaywala sells bagels in Houston. Demetrios dishes up
pizza in Connecticut. The Wangs serve tacos in Los Angeles. How
ethnicity has influenced American eating habits-and thus, the
make-up and direction of the American cultural mainstream-is the
story told in We Are What We Eat. It is a complex tale of ethnic
mingling and borrowing, of entrepreneurship and connoisseurship, of
food as a social and political symbol and weapon-and a thoroughly
entertaining history of our culinary tradition of multiculturalism.
The story of successive generations of Americans experimenting with
their new neighbors' foods highlights the marketplace as an
important arena for defining and expressing ethnic identities and
relationships. We Are What We Eat follows the fortunes of dozens of
enterprising immigrant cooks and grocers, street hawkers and
restaurateurs who have cultivated and changed the tastes of
native-born Americans from the seventeenth century to the present.
It also tells of the mass corporate production of foods like
spaghetti, bagels, corn chips, and salsa, obliterating their ethnic
identities. The book draws a surprisingly peaceful picture of
American ethnic relations, in which "Americanized" foods like
Spaghetti-Os happily coexist with painstakingly pure ethnic dishes
and creative hybrids. Donna Gabaccia invites us to consider: If we
are what we eat, who are we? Americans' multi-ethnic eating is a
constant reminder of how widespread, and mutually enjoyable, ethnic
interaction has sometimes been in the United States. Amid our
wrangling over immigration and tribal differences, it reveals that
on a basic level, in the way we sustain life and seek pleasure, we
are all multicultural.

Look at the back label of a bottle of wine and you may well see a
reference to its terroir, the total local environment of the
vineyard that grew the grapes, from its soil to the climate.
Winemakers universally accept that where a grape is grown
influences its chemistry, which in turn changes the flavor of the
wine. A detailed system has codified the idea that place matters to
wine. So why don't we feel the same way about whiskey? In this
book, the master distiller Rob Arnold reveals how innovative
whiskey producers are recapturing a sense of place to create
distinctive, nuanced flavors. He takes readers on a world tour of
whiskey and the science of flavor, stopping along the way at
distilleries in Kentucky, New York, Texas, Ireland, and Scotland.
Arnold puts the spotlight on a new generation of distillers, plant
breeders, and local farmers who are bringing back long-forgotten
grain flavors and creating new ones in pursuit of terroir. In the
twentieth century, we inadvertently bred distinctive tastes out of
grains in favor of high yields-but today's artisans have teamed up
to remove themselves from the commodity grain system, resurrect
heirloom cereals, bring new varieties to life, and recapture the
flavors of specific local ingredients. The Terroir of Whiskey makes
the scientific and cultural cases that terroir is as important in
whiskey as it is in wine.
