In other papers I tried to illustrate that the food of the border has a unique and very special flavor, influenced not only by the food of the U.S, but more likely by the food of southern and central Chihuahua. We also tried to identify the problems that climate and soil conditions have created in the preparation, conservation and presentation of border food. Still, for a lot of people, border food has little or no impact on the overall map of Mexican cooking disallowing residents from central Mexico to understand that border cooking gets its originality not only from its own experience but also from the way that it has opened its arms to other cuisines. This influence ranges from inside Mexico to the big role that constant immigration from other countries has impacted the way that the border eats. The main purpose of this paper is to acknowledge the presence of Chinese, Lebanese and Spanish communities in the area and their possible contributions to border cooking.Item type: Item , Tasting The Dream: Feasts and Feasting in the Society for Creative Anachronism(Foodways Section of the American Folklore Society, 2008) Lash, SarahIn the search for an "authentic medieval experience," members of the Society for Creative Anachonism, or SCA, explore a wide range of activities, from fighting to dancing, sewing, heraldry, music, cooking, and feasting. These activities are carried out in local practices, day- or weekend-long local events, and up to week-long Wars between different regions. Founded in Berkeley in the late 1960s, the Society for Creative Anachronism has grown internationally to over 32,000 paid members and countless other participants, organized into 19 Kingdoms, each with their own host of royalty and laws.i Seeking to re-create aspects of Western Europe before 1600, members consider how history looked, felt, sounded, smelled, and tasted.Item type: Item , "Persimmons Make it Mitchell": Performing Identity in Pudding(Foodways Section of the American Folklore Society, 2008) Morales, SelinaThe wide horizontal landscape of southern Indiana is interrupted by small rolling hills, which flatten out as quickly as they rise. Nestled on the edges of property lines, arching over fences, and dotting the twisting roads that pass through the small towns are the gnarled branches of one of the region's prized possessions, the persimmon tree. Persimmons grow wild throughout southern Indiana. Persimmons are harvested from October until early December and are completely inedible until processed. If you were to pick a persimmon off a tree and bite into it, the astringent and bitter taste would twist your face into a dangerous shape. Persimmons are best picked off the ground, nearly rotten looking, and are baked into fresh, delicious persimmon pudding.Item type: Item , What Color is Your Gravy?(Foodways Section of the American Folklore Society, 2008) Vaughan, Theresa A.This paper is a small exploration of my own assumptions of regional identity, and how they were modified through the simple medium of gravy. The paper also includes some research, and information gathered by talking with those interested in food from various parts of the United States and Canada. It is a small exercise in differential identity, and it is a reinforcement of some of the very basic ideas about food ways and identity which have been commented upon by numerous authors (cf. Brown & Mussell 1984, Shortridge & Shortridge 1998).Item type: Item , Feeding the Hungry: Soul Performance of Food and Faith in the Urban Soup Kitchen(Foodways Section of the American Folklore Society, 2008) Jochnowitz, EveProviding food for people who need it is more popular and less controversial than other forms of charitable relief. More popular, that is, to the general public, not necessarily to those who are the targets of charitable giving. Food, agreed to be a basic necessity for all, is the medium "least susceptible to abuse." (quoted in Zelizer 127). Cash aid to the poor, on the other hand, has often been unpopular and some have even proposed making it illegal (128).Item type: Item , Digest Volume 20, 2000-2008: Cover and Table of Contents(American Folklore Society, 2008) Thursby, Jacqueline; Jochnowitz, EveItem type: Item , 1990, Spring: The Digest: A Review for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1990) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1989, Spring: The Digest: A Review for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1989) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1988, Fall: The Digest: A Review for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1988) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1988, Spring: The Digest: A Review for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1988) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1987, Spring: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1987) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1986, Fall: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1986) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1986, Summer: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1986) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1985, Fall: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1985) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1985, Spring: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1985) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1983, Spring: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1983) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1983, Winter: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1983) Foodways Section of the American Folklore SocietyItem type: Item , 1987, Summer-Fall: The Digest: A Newsletter for the Interdisciplinary Study of Food(American Folklore Society, 1987) Foodways Section of the American Folklore Society
