This wide-ranging and fascinating study is the most inclusive exploration available of women's relationship with food. Cairns and Johnston examine idealized 'food femininities' and culturally-constructed feminine food practices; in doing so, they link food to issues of family, childhood, embodiment, politics, and patriarchy. They probe vital questions: How do women channel their desire for social change through food practices? Why do gendered inequalities persist? How are established notions of food and femininity being challenged? With lively analytical overview and original research, including interviews and focus groups, this book will be indispensable for students and scholars of sociology of food, consumer culture, and gender studies.
