so-soDefinitely some aspects of food history I had little knowledge of, but this one's a bit slow (or at least, it was for my tastes).
And that's my #DoubleSpin, and at least one line for #BookSpinBingo. Wooo.

pickholy shit but this was a good, good book. highly recommend!
just one of the many no-punches-pulled passages in this book. definitely worth it.
this is the book i‘m reading for fun while working on my dissertation. despite its rigor, it‘s very easy to read and i‘m getting through it quickly!
pickBrief sections on how food altered history and how history altered food, as related to the British Empire chronologically from Tudor times to the early twentieth century. Interesting, readable, thought provoking.
