People eat and drink very differently throughout their life. Each
stage has diets with specific ingredients, preparations, palates,
meanings and settings. Moreover, physicians, authorities and
general observers have particular views on what and how to eat
according to age. All this has changed frequently during the
previous two centuries. Infant feeding has for a long time
attracted historical attention, but interest in the diets of
youngsters, adults of various ages, and elderly people seems to
have dissolved into more general food historiography. This volume
puts age on the agenda of food history by focusing on the very
diverse diets throughout the lifecycle.
