During the last decades television shows have turned chefs into
celebrities, and food and cooking have become an integrated part of
the lifestyle and entertainment industries. At the same time food
has scare-potential; food-related health problems and global food
security are more prominent than ever, showing that anxieties,
fears and hostility are as intimately connected with food as the
joyful meal. These dynamics of late modern foodways lead to new or
modified food products and services, as well as new habits and
routines. New investigations of everyday food practices are thus in
order: Why do people forage for berries in the forest or mobilize
resources to find traditional cheese when cheaper varieties are
easily available in the nearest supermarket? Why do consumers spend
time in front of their computers chatting with the supplier of
organic apples at the other end of the globe and how come that the
seemingly trivial practice of eating cake in Norway has turned into
an act of anxiety? By bringing such questions to the table, the
articles in this issue of Ethnologia Europaea provide perspectives
on the dynamics of contemporary food consumption and production and
its effects and meanings in everyday life.
