In her new book, "Real Food, Real Facts: Processed Food and the Politics of Knowledge," Charlotte Biltekoff explores friction between the U.S. public and food marketers when it comes to food processing. She and others at UC Davis are making these types of conversations real and accessible to people both in and outside of the food industry.
A team of UC Davis Humanities scholars planning a 2024-2025 seminar, Thinking Food @ the Intersections, was recently awarded $225,000 for the project. The seminar will have dual goals of understanding the complexities of food justice through a humanities framework as well as finding new potential solutions.
