Document Summary

Using food as a lens to understand people- the way we"ve grown and experienced food as a new thing. There is a linear idea of the food system. The things that come from outside the system (politics, economic factors) affect the process. When we evoke the concept of a system, it demands that we consider those elements as more than just a chain of events, but as a system and the interconnection of those elements. With the concept of a spider-web to explain the system, the whole entity is only as strong as it"s weakest point. The strong strands can strengthen the web as a whole, but the weak can damage it entirely. Domestication of agriculture, we really begin to tame and shape nature. There was a surplus production of food, which gave people more time to do things that would have been used to gather food. A shift, described as one of the biggest changes in food history.
