What does our food media say about who we are?

Can learning about food take us somewhere beyond the kitchen? If you subscribe to a cooking magazine or watch food shows on TV, what are you looking for?

I very much enjoyed the variety of viewpoints on this show, and exposure to new links and writings to check out. I would like to add this blog to the mix :

This is posted by Annie Jelnick, her approach is to bracket memories & experiences with family and friends in her life, as they relate to meals they shared. She often sums up each posting with the recipe for the item of discussion. She has written op-ed pieces for the Santa Barbara News-Press and the blog was referred to in a piece she did for the LA Times.
