B8 THE DAILY ITEM WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10, 2021 FOOD The power of a meal shared, while separated By Ben Mims LOS ANGELES TIMES For many of us, one of the natural consequences of this past year of quar- antine has been the need to cook less food. Once the shutdown took effect, all food media outlets promptly pivoted to pro- viding recipes for one or two people. With families separated and dinner par- ties being a thing of the past, cooking large batch- es of food to share was now unnecessary, even danger- ous. But as someone who has a pathological inabil- ity to cook small meals, it was the one part of our new world I couldn’t adapt to. Growing up in a South- ern family, big meals were the norm.
