In LOST FEAST, food expert Lenore Newman sets out to look at the history of the foods we have loved to death and what that means for the culinary paths we choose for the future. Bracketing the chapters are a series of extinction dinners , designed to recreate meals of the past or to illustrate how we might be eating in the future. Part culinary romp, part environmental wake-up call, LOST FEAST makes a critical contribution to our understanding of food security today. You will never look at what s on your plate in quite the same way again.
