Welcome to the home of Patiently Waiting For Bacon, Inc., the online home and nexus of my quest to explore the vast spectrum of our collective food culture.
We are too often removed from the rich history behind the foods and drinks that are so important to our lives. This disconnect separates the consumer from producer, making our food experience a decidedly mechanistic one instead of the true celebration it should be. Good food and drink is the convergence of the natural world with our cultural constructs and is the result of millennia of combined knowledge and collective experience.
It is with a mind to the revitalization of this connection to our delectable past that I strive to explore the traditional foodways that are disappearing from our common knowledge.
So come join me on this journey, as we make food important again.
