FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is food history?
Food history is exactly what it sounds like: the study of the production and consumption of foods in eras past. The field is incredibly broad and encompasses topics from the history of agriculture to the development of supply chains and the evolution of culinary culture. The main uniting factor is that these topics link to the things that humanity has eaten over the centuries.
Where do all your beautiful images come from?
Since our magazine focuses on history, we try to use archival and public domain images as much as possible to illustrate our magazine. There are a whole host of online repositories for such works, the majority hosted by libraries, museums, and universities worldwide.
