"Eating in Theory draws on snapshots of eating practices to shift a range of fundamental intellectual reflexes. The terms that shape current social science and humanities theorizing are marked by a hierarchical version of "the human" in which thinking is celebrated and eating is demoted to a mundane necessity. However much sense this may have made in the past, it works poorly in a time of ecological crisis.
