- Summary:
- "Paranatures in Culinary Culture reveals how culinary staples are not only elements of identity formation but also instruments of cultural disruption when their true nature emerges and challenges our preconceptions. Addressing larger issues of colonial and postcolonial food theory, Thomas R. Parker explores how certain foods can both create and destabilize narratives, unsettle assimilation, and decenter Western culinary traditions"-- Provided by publisher.
