SOC 3850 - Food and Society (3)Sociology of food is the study of food as it relates to the history, progression, and future development of society. Food is much more than a biological need for human beings. What we eat, the way we eat, and whether or not we prepare or provide food for others is every bit as much symbolic as it is rooted in biological survival. We create identity, claim ethnic and national affiliation and affirm our maleness and femaleness with the foods we purchase, prepare, select or order from a menu. This course will help students to investigate the way the foods people eat-or don’t eat-hold meaning for people within multiple cultural contexts.
