Foster's announcement precipitated a torrent of attention by many who worriedly debated the impact that his new diet may have on his on-field performance. In this article, we unravel the threads that have woven together a picture of who Foster is and what his decision to go vegan means. We argue that a close look at the media response reveals deeply held beliefs about masculinity, race, class, and place and the ways in which food serves in the constitution of subjectivity in the context of pro-football in Texas. We conduct a contextual discourse analysis of the popular and sports media coverage of Foster's diet using an intersectional framework to elaborate how normative masculinity is further nuanced by the meanings attributed to race, place, sexuality, sport, aggression, violence, health, and productivity.","PeriodicalId":45423,"journal":{"name":"Food and Foodways","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07409710.2014.964605","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59772241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Shopping Versus Growing: Food Acquisition Habits of Dutch Urban Gardeners","authors":"E. Veen, P.H.M. Derkzen, Andries J. Visser","doi":"10.1080/07409710.2014.964604","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/07409710.2014.964604","url":null,"abstract":"In this article, we explore how urban food growing gets interwoven with other areas of life and show how this differs between people actively engaged in gardening and people not or only limitedly involved. We compare four urban food-growing initiatives: two allotments and two Alternative Food Networks (AFNs); the AFNs do not require active participation. Using the theory of practice, we show that allotment gardeners are mainly involved in the practice of gardening. Having responsibility over a garden stimulates them to perform the gardening practice, turning it into a routine that has its place in everyday life. As a result, the harvest is easily integrated in the daily meal. Members of the AFNs studied engage in the practice of shopping. These AFNs therefore remain in competition with more convenient food acquisition venues such as supermarkets and members have difficulty eating from them regularly. We conclude that whether members are involved in shopping or growing impacts the degree to which they manage to eat urban-grown food. This also implies that motivations to change the current food system “only go so far”; such motivations are embedded in the context of everyday life, in which routines may forego conscious choices.","PeriodicalId":45423,"journal":{"name":"Food and Foodways","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07409710.2014.964604","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59772017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Finally, the main argument loses steam in the book’s conclusion, as Shprintzen depicts the unraveling of “movement” vegetarianism, while vaguely gesturing to the mainstream status vegetarianism held in the twentieth century. He does so by citing 1943 Gallup poll results that found between 2.5 and 3 million Americans self-identified as vegetarians. He makes this somewhat illogical jump from 1921 to 1943 without explanation or connection to present day, both of which would have made for a more satisfying reader experience and more impactful conclusion. In the end, however, Shprintzen offers a fine history of the vegetarian movement, effectively elucidating the evolving nature of reform efforts over the course of the nineteenth century and into the twentieth. He successfully complicates these changes, as he situates them within the broader context of urbanization, industrialization, consumerism, and American expansion. Well researched, highly accessible, and easy to digest, The Vegetarian Crusade is sure to be of interest to a broad audience, as well as to scholars and students of food studies, nutrition, public health, the history of medicine, nineteenth and twentieth century American history, and reform movements.","PeriodicalId":45423,"journal":{"name":"Food and Foodways","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07409710.2014.964607","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59771982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data from 75 fathers suggests aspects of Mormon masculinity lead to more involvement with foodwork than might be expected in this cultural context. Fathers assumed the “helper” role of church doctrine but favored tasks like grocery shopping and taking families out to eat that mapped onto providing for the family, a key priesthood responsibility. Rather than reconfiguring “women's work” to render it more masculine (Deustch; Gvion; Mechling), fathers involved in foodwork traditionally coded as feminine, like home cooking, related it to caring as expressed in their priesthood roles as stewards of the family, another aspect of Mormon manhood. The ambiguity of the “helper” role and priesthood responsibility for success of the family allowed for flexibility in gender roles and promoted participation in foodwork by Latter-day Saint fathers.","PeriodicalId":45423,"journal":{"name":"Food and Foodways","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07409710.2014.964588","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59771843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By examining the work of Jules Chauvet, a founder of the natural wine movement, Cohen exposes the myriad of interventions necessary to create a wine that can be called natural. Chauvet is shown to constitute, through his decision making, a unique humanistic concept of nature, one that is appropriate to its time and place. Together, this volume places two of the most seductive narratives of wine culture, its relationship to the natural world and its ascension as an artisan object, under unprecedented scrutiny, leaving the reader with some surprising results. Rather than denuding wine, the close attention paid to the way wine moves through concrete lives, and the nuanced way the concept of culture is handled by these anthropologists, reveals wine to be a capable storyteller, even after the fetish it acquired in the marketplace is dispelled. Wine and Culture: Vineyard to Glass opens new conversations. It is recommended to both wine enthusiasts and trades people because of the productive way it complicates what is known of tradition, terroir, and good taste. Food and wine scholars will welcome the detail and depth of the studies included, especially in the areas and markets which have been less examined by wine literature. This book also makes a substantial contribution to the anthropology of contemporary foodways, as well as serving as a good introduction to the difficult job of the anthropologist today. By showing both wine and culture in a state of transition, it will force undergraduate students to re-examine key concepts in the social sciences and help more advanced researchers to re-tool their methods, as each seeks to better understand the role culture, cultural symbols, and commodities play in our globally interconnected world.","PeriodicalId":45423,"journal":{"name":"Food and Foodways","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07409710.2014.931691","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59771541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reese","doi":"10.1080/07409710.2014.931684","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/07409710.2014.931684","url":null,"abstract":"While talking about By Any Greens Necessary and Sistah Vegan, a friend asked, “Why is it necessary to have books about veganism written especially for black women?” My friend, a white woman, was well meaning. She could not understand what race has to do with veganism. Perhaps she was even surprised to hear that there are black, female vegans. Her question perfectly illustrates why these books are necessary. At best, veganism is a way of eating, a way of life that seemingly has nothing to do with race. At worst, it is a way of eating, a way of life tied to whiteness. Both books address the latter, bringing a visibility to black women’s experiences with veganism, using personal narrative to illustrate different journeys. The centering of black women’s experiences, addressing cultural concerns related to eating and community, and an explicit focus on health (broadly defined) link these two books together, but each approaches the subject differently. By Any Greens Necessary: A Revolutionary Guide for Black Women Who Want to Eat Great, Get Healthy, Lose Weight, and Look Phat doesn’t reference veganism in the title. Instead, readers might draw a parallel between the book’s title and “by any means necessary,” a phrase popularized by Malcolm X. In a 1965 speech, Malcolm X said, “We declare our right on this earth to be a man, to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society, on this earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary.” Similar to Malcolm X’s desire for blacks to experience liberation from racial and economic oppression, McQuirter aims to help black women get healthy by “liberating the way [we] think about food” (xxiii). The title is inviting, though “vegan” is noticeably left out. While “Green” might refer to any type of leafy vegetables, for black women, it might call to mind collard greens. That—coupled with “Black Women” and “Phat”—creates a sense of community, familiarity, comfort, and safe space.","PeriodicalId":45423,"journal":{"name":"Food and Foodways","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07409710.2014.931684","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59771741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the Meiji-era government encouraged its citizens to eat meat, official banquets had already become a scene of diplomatic interaction: transnational tables at which Japanese diners had to get to grips with an unfamiliar dining culture. This article takes as its subject five illustrated books that introduced their readers to Western knives, forks, and spoons in the late Edo period and early Meiji era: Ransetsu benwaku, Yokohama kaikō kenmon shi, Seiyō ishokujū, Seiyō ryōri tsū, and Seiyō ryōri shinan. These publications occupy a cross-cultural space, offering descriptions of Western-style tableware to a Japanese readership. Examining whether these publications intended to offer their readers a form of intercultural competence or were anticipated to function as entertainment, this article argues that this foreign material culture of dining and the knowledge required for its appropriate use became both a matter of grave importance and light amusement within a changing and differentiated Japan.","PeriodicalId":45423,"journal":{"name":"Food and Foodways","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07409710.2014.940244","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59771442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
