Review # 2 was written on 2018-03-17 00:00:00 Kelly Adrian The neat thing about this book was it not only explained how food culture evolved in the British Americas during the colonial period, but it also went into the social history that is connected to that. For instance, slaves in the Caribbean often starved because their masters gave them land to grow their own food and time off to grow it, so if their was a hurricane or infertile soil or their crops were stolen they suffered. But at the same time the cuisine of the Caribbean reflects the African roots of the former slaves. While in the mid atlantic it was common for masters to provide their slaves with provisions. Which meant that few of them starved to death, but also that African cuisine did not take root in the mid atlantic region. |
