Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This text is devoted to a division of the social and cultural uses of food in ancient and contemporary societies throughout the world. Its main purpose is to illustrate the theme of nutrition as a bioculture issue, showing that, while all people have to eat to live, what they eat is largely determined by cultural influences.
