  6. Digesting Food Studies (the CFS podcast)—Episode 111: Lunch Box Identities

    What is “Canadian food” and how does its interpretation affect our identity and sense of belonging—especially in primary and secondary schools?

    rss.com/podcasts/digesting-foo

    This episode unpacks the packed lunch, in particular those that the kids of first-generation immigrants bring to school. Two articles from Canadian Food Studies are covered, both co-written by Yukari Seko, “Unboxing the bento box” (Vol. 8, No. 3) and “Feeding children while Asian” (Vol. 12, No. 2). And in response, PhD student Shay Quinn offers up several perspectives on meaning-making, involving research participants in research, and arts-informed methodologies.

  11. Digesting Food Studies (the CFS podcast)—Episode 106: School Food Programs

    rss.com/podcasts/digesting-foo

    With the creation of Canada’s National School Food Program, myriad questions, challenges, and opportunities arise. Student success, cultural identity, food provisioning, and economics are all at play. As Rachel Engler-Stringer tells us in this episode, ongoing research and reflection will be needed.

    First, Alexia Moyer’s Amuse Bouche segment reveals a number of lessons—some more useful than others—from Saskatchewan’s early 1900s school food planning. And in the After Taste, Penelope Stam responds to the focus article, “The case for a Canadian national school food program” (doi.org/10.15353/cfs-rcea.v5i3) from Vol. 5 No. 3 of Canadian Food Studies.
