by Wilson, Bee       
(Paperback - English - 9780465056972)
Award-winning food writer Bee Wilson's secret history of kitchens, showing how new technologies - from the fork to the microwave and beyond - have fundamentally shaped how and what we eat.

In Consider the Fork , award-winning food writer Bee Wilson takes readers on a wonderful and witty tour of the evolution of cooking around the world, revealing the hidden history of objects we often take for granted. Technology in the kitc ..

So why has eating become such a source of anxiety and confusion? br Bee Wilson shows that in two generations the world has undergone a massive shift from traditional, limited diets to more globalized ways of eating, from bubble tea to quinoa, from Soylent to meal kits. br Paradoxically, our diets are getting healthier and less healthy at the same time.

Sandwich: A Global History
by Wilson, Bee       
(Hardcover - English - 9781861897718)
The humble peanut butter and jelly or bologna and cheese or corned beef on rye--no matter your cooking expertise, chances are you've made and eaten countless sandwiches in your lifetime. It's quick, it's simple, and it's open to infinite variety and inventiveness. If there's something bread- or bun-like in your cupboard, there is a sandwich waiting to happen. Though sandwiches are a near-universal food, their origin can be traced to a very precise historical figure: John Montagu, the Fourth Earl of Sandwich, who, sometime before 1762 being too busy to stop for dinner, asked for some cold beef to be brought to him between two slices of bread. In Sandwich , award ..

Swindled: The Dark History of Food Fraud, from Poisoned Candy to Counterfeit Coffee
by Wilson, Bee       
(Hardcover - English - 9780691138206)
Bad food has a history. Swindled tells it. Through a fascinating mixture of cultural and scientific history, food politics, and culinary detective work, Bee Wilson uncovers the many ways swindlers have cheapened, falsified, and even poisoned our food throughout history. In the hands of people and corporations who have prized profits above the health of consumers, food and drink have been tampered with in often horrifying ways--padded, diluted, contaminated, substituted, mislabeled, misnamed, or otherwise faked. Swindled gives a panoramic view of this history, from the leaded wine of the ancient Romans to today's food frauds--such as fake organics and the scand ..

First Bite: How We Learn to Eat
by Wilson, Bee       
(Paperback - English - 9780465094127)
We are not born knowing what to eat; as omnivores it is something we each have to figure out for ourselves. From childhood onward, we learn how big a "portion" is and how sweet is too sweet. We learn to enjoy green vegetables -- or not. But how does this education happen? What are the origins of taste? In First Bite , award-winning food writer Bee Wilson draws on the latest research from food psychologists, neuroscientists, and nutritionists to reveal that our food habits are shaped by a whole host of factors: family and culture, memory and gender, hunger and love. Taking the reader on a journey across the globe, Wilson introduces us to people who can only eat ..
