Abstract

I will tell the story of my early years of appetizing involvement in food scholarship as it developed from folk cookery to foodways and in the study of American food history. Using a museum as a laboratory, I will focus on Colonial Pennsylvania Plantation to illustrate our knowledge of history through foodways. I also will focus on a contemporary world barbeque cookoff, its folklore and folklife, and the maintenance of food habits.
