Abstract
Since the mid-twentieth century, an increasing number of scholars have incorporated food studies into their disciplines. During this period, the term foodways has come to represent many facets of our relationship with food. Foodways has also been associated with food production, preparation and consumption patterns, as well as other elements of society.
