So close geographically, how could France and England be so
enormously far apart gastronomically? Not just in different recipes
and ways of cooking, but in their underlying attitudes toward the
enjoyment of eating and its place in social life. In a new
afterword that draws the United States and other European countries
into the food fight, Stephen Mennell also addresses the rise of
Asian influence and "multicultural" cuisine. Debunking myths along
the way, All Manners of Food is a sweeping look at how social and
political development has helped to shape different culinary
cultures. Food and almost everything to do with food, fasting and
gluttony, cookbooks, women's magazines, chefs and cooks, types of
foods, the influential difference between "court" and "country"
food are comprehensively explored and tastefully presented in a
dish that will linger in the memory long after the plates have been
cleared.
