Food studies is the interdisciplinary research on food and its social, historical, economic, cultural, and political contexts. Scholars in food studies examine food practices; global flows and production of food and their effects on people; food movements, such as vegetarianism; food policy, such as school lunches; the role of food in religion; and many other ideas. Though the study of food in nutrition and medicine are important in their own right, food studies for our purposes does not include these disciplines.
