Food Information, Communication, and Education delve into the intricate interplay of various media in shaping and disseminating knowledge about food. It explores the concept of 'eating knowledge,' encompassing knowledge about food and food practices, which permeates cooking classes, the daily press, school textbooks, social media, popular magazines, and other media outlets. Moreover, a diverse array of actors, including food producers, advertising agencies, celebrity chefs, teachers, food bloggers, and government institutions, have assumed the crucial role of informing and educating the public about food.
This interdisciplinary collection, featuring a rich array of European case studies, offers a profound exploration of the processes of mediatization, circulation, and reception of knowledge related to food within specific social contexts. The book addresses a wide range of topics, including:
• The transmission of popularized knowledge about food across generations.
• The establishment of trust in the context of today's food risk society.
• A critical evaluation of nutrition education initiatives targeted at children.
• The political and ideological implications of food information policy and practice.
By examining these diverse aspects, Food Information, Communication, and Education provides valuable insights into the complex dynamics of knowledge production, dissemination, and consumption in the realm of food. It sheds light on the ways in which media, actors, and social environments interact to shape our understanding, attitudes, and behaviors towards food, ultimately contributing to the development of a more informed and responsible food culture.
