Sidney Mintz and his work on food and power Episode 141

Food is a big deal for a variety of reasons. What happens when powers larger than us start tampering with that food? What happens when we tamper with that food or make new preference choices? Is culture destroyed and meaning muted?  This is a quick review of a chapter from Sidney Mintz’ book Tasting Food, Tasting Freedom and how some of his thoughts are with us today.
