Everyone eats : understanding food and culture / by E.N. Anderson. - 2nd edition. - 368 pages

Everyone eats, but rarely do we investigate why we eat what we eat. Why do we love spices, sweets, coffee? How did rice become such a staple food throughout so much of eastern Asia? 'Everyone Eats' examines the social and cultural reasons for our food choices and provides an explanation of the nutritional reasons for why humans eat what they do.
