Pandemics, Plagues, and Food Frauds Mar 14, 2020

Show notes

COVID-19 is here, and as of this week, plans for reducing its impact are starting to affect Americans’ day-to-day lives. Hundreds of events have been cancelled or suspended, including SXSW and the remainder of the NBA’s season. The stock market is basically a financial roller coaster due to global uncertainty in the face of COVID-19, and President Trump instituted a ban on travel from Europe, with the exception of the UK. However, the virus continues to spread in communities across the country.

In a public health crisis, it can sometimes feel like the food system is being reshuffled before our eyes. That’s why this week we are taking a look at how outbreaks, both past and present, shape the way that we eat.

We have stories about COVID-19's effects on NYC's Chinatowns, how World Central Kitchen mobilized to provide emergency food logistics for the Diamond Princess in Japan, the locust plague wreaking havoc in East Africa and South Asia, and why food fraud is so dangerous and hard to detect.

Brexit: Bye-Bye Fresh Peaches Feb 07, 2020

Show notes

On January 31st, the United Kingdom officially withdrew from the European Union. As Britain leaps into the unknown, it leaves its population in anxious anticipation of the nation’s future. At first, this seismic shift in global politics may feel abstract. After all, most Britons resumed their usual routines on February 1st. But, slowly, citizens will see the consequences of Brexit - and, in all likelihood, food will be the first place that people will begin to notice changes. We talked to experts to find out how Brexit is shifting what the UK will eat and drink in the future.

Pirouettes and Supplements: Food is Fuel Feb 03, 2020

Show notes

At its core, food is fuel. Every living organism on earth relies upon some form of sustenance to get through the day. Today, humans have a very different relationship to food than past generations. On top of having access to virtually any food we desire, our understanding of nutrition has greatly expanded.
In the olden days, it was normal for professional athletes to eat steaks and drink beers before their games. Now there's dozens of diets and nutritional ideologies wrapped up in the sports world. With all this information, the new question becomes: what information should we trust? We talked to all different types of athletes and several nutrition experts this week to find out the myriad ways that food is used to enhance physical fitness and performance.

The Camera Eats First Jan 25, 2020

Show notes

From still-life bowls of fruit and pastel paintings of cake – to sensually photographed peppers and iconic Campbell soup cans, food is one of our favorite things to portray and observe through the visual arts. It also plays a role in some of the earliest known artworks – where the animals painted on cave walls may have represented sources of food for early humans.

This week, we look at the evolution of how the culinary and art worlds have become tightly intertwined. Stories focus on food sculpture, bread as art, the iconic works of Wayne Thiebaud, and how instagram has changed the way we share and consume food.

You can find the entire series of Modernist Breadcrumbs here.

And you can hear more from Michael Harlan Turkell's The Food Seen here.
