Some of the world’s most adventurous food historians contribute to this thrice-yearly journal of articles and excerpts from works in progress. Within these early issues you can see the shaping of a now thriving food studies discipline take form, with the first announcements of now established conferences announced for the first time, and reviews and excepts from foundational works in the food studies field. The emphasis is on plain writing rather than jargon. Among the articles in this issue:
