Food occupies a seemingly mundane position in our lives, yet the ways we think about shopping, cooking and eating are actually intensely reflexive. From the relationship of our food intake to our body-shape, to the impact of our tastes upon global food-production regimes, food consumption impacts on our sense of place.Consuming Geographiesaddresses the theoretical debates about identity politics and issues of consumption through an exploration of one of the most universal features of everyday life. We all think place and identity through food: we arewherewe eat.
