Food influences our lives as a marker of power and status and of gender, ethnic, and religious identity. The author of Bite Me: Food in Popular Culture and coordinator of Food Studies at The New School explores food in popular culture, especially “low brow” and even “trash” food, and offers insights into what we choose to put in our mouths.
