Summary

On today's show, we are what we eat: we're serving up food and culture. Naomi Duguid and Jeffrey Alford are known for examining the cultural context of food in their lavish cookbooks. In Beyond the Great Wall, these two world travelers explore the region they call "the other China". Next, New York Times food writer Florence Fabricant on "Park Avenue potlucks", and a couple keeps the memories, recipes, and ingredients of a Pilipino kitchen alive. Then, find out why salad makes the meal; discover the history of Western tableware; hear how one man envisions that bread will save a village; and much more. [Broadcast Date: June 26, 2008]
