Ann Vileisis talks food on KKCR today

Our friends at Malama Kaua`i, today on the radio:

Join hosts Andrea Brower and Keone Kealoha as we discuss the sources of our food and how it gets into our kitchens with author Ann Vileisis joining us by phone. Ann has written an extraordinary book on the last 200 years of food history in the United States, titled Kitchen Literacy. She starts with a simple meal and its context from 1796 and leads us through the next 200 years of change. She illuminates the impact of urbanization, immigration, industrialization (both in the larger sense and in the context of food systems). . KKCR can be found at 91.9 FM or online at www.KKCR.org.
