Your voices provide the power of this project. Thank you, Susan Puckett, for showing me that food is much more than just something we eat. It is an incredible avenue to share intimate stories and personal histories. Without that realization, this thesis would not have come to fruition. To Curtis Wilkie, Kathleen Wickham and Ellen Meacham, thank you for being sticklers for perfection. Under your direction, I grew to become a better writer than I ever imagined I could be. To Will Norton and Charlie Mitchell, thank you for always giving the best advice. To my family, thank you for your constant support, even when you knew those all-nighters were a bad idea. Finally, I am eternally grateful to Bill Rose, whose guidance and supervision as an editor and mentor have shaped me into a true journalist.

  • Healthy Cooking
    Healthy Cooking This chapter is divided into the following sections: In the Refrigerator, The Budget, Food Labels, Kitchen’s Ready, Healthy Entertaining, Eating Out and Healthy Recipes. In the refrigerator Plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables (occasionally buy something you haven’t tried before) Low fat milk, yoghurt and cheese (try ricotta or cottage cheeses) Margarine (canola or olive oil blend) Lean meat, lean chicken and fish Eggs Frozen vegetables Frozen bread (for emergencies) Healthy leftovers (for when you are in a hurry) Ice-cream (buy those really creamy decadent ones—hey it’s an occasional treat!) A fruit basket in easy reach The budget Ask any university student and they will tell you that there are three food groups: beer, bread and the $5 roast at the local bowling club! While this is not our suggested eating plan, some planning and astute decision- making will result in good economy. The proposition that healthy eating is expensive is simply not true. Here are some cost saving tips. Keep the pantry well stocked—shop once a week for fruit and vegetables and fortnightly for groceries. Consider the meals you intend preparing before you go to the supermarket. This ensures you have all the necessary ingredients, helping to avoid the need to buy one-off items at a higher cost. Base meals around what is in season or on special. Buy bulk—it is often cheaper. Perhaps shop with someone else and split the cost. Take your calculator shopping to make it easier to work out which size option is the best value.

  • 86 - the Lazy Genius Buys Meat
    #86 - The Lazy Genius Buys Meat Hi, friends! You’re listening to The Lazy Genius Podcast! I’m Kendra, and I’m here to help you be a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the things that don’t. Today is episode 86 and while a little odd in its title, it’s a topic I’ve been asked about a lot. This is The Lazy Genius Buys Meat. Obviously this episode isn’t relevant to vegetarians and vegans, and in case you did click the link, wondering if it was a tricky title somehow, let me reassure you that we’re talking about buying meat today. I respect and honor the choice of folks who don’t eat meat, and I want to offer resources to those of you who do. But we’re going to talk literally about how to buy meat. Where you can get it, how you can save money, how you store it, and all the things. Before we jump into that though, I’d love to invite you to join my mailing list! Giving up your email, knowing that you’re going to get messages in an already-full inbox, is kind of the worst. I get it. But this Wednesday, our Lazy Genius email situation is about to change! I’m going to be sending a newsletter once a month (not once a week like I’ve been doing), and I’m hoping it’s the kind of email you’re so excited to see in your inbox. It’ll have all the regular newsletter stuff like content you might have missed since a lot of you don’t even know that I put posts and recipes on a blog sometimes, books I’m reading and podcasts I’m loving, as well as words from me that aren’t put anywhere else.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Tasmania Open Access Repository CRIMINOLOGY RESEARCH UNIT Occasional Paper No. 3 June 2006 Food Matters Issues Surrounding Food in Prison by Diane Heckenberg & Dannielle Cody Criminology & Corrections Contact: Professor Rob White Director Criminology Research Unit School of Sociology & Social Work Private Bag 17 Hobart Tasmania Australia 7001 Telephone +61 3 62262877 Facsimile +61 3 62262279 Email [email protected] ISSN 1447-9966 Preface The issue of prison food has made headlines several times over the last few years in Tasmania. It is a problem not unique to this State. As demonstrated in this report, the quality, quantity and social context of food preparation and consump- tion really does matter for prisoners – whether they reside at Risdon prison, a mainland institution or overseas. What you eat and how you eat is enormously important to all of us. In situations of enforced confinement and loss of ordinary freedoms, food becomes even more significant and the issues more pronounced. This report has been undertaken as part of the Field Project component of the Criminology & Corrections post graduate course work program offered by the University of Tasmania. Di and Dannielle drew upon a range of sources of informa- tion about prison food, including relevant literature and interviews with former prisoners. They also had discussions with select prison staff. As a field project report, the study has its limitations, due to time, resource and access constraints. Nevertheless, the report provides a good example of inde- pendent research that can constructively bring to public attention an informed overview of key issues.

  • When Traditions Become Innovations and Innovations Become Traditions in Everyday Food Pedagogies Helen Benny Swinburne University of Technology
    Australian Journal of Adult Learning Volume 52, Number 3, November 2012 When traditions become innovations and innovations become traditions in everyday food pedagogies Helen Benny Swinburne University of Technology This paper explores the way learning to cook remains important for the maintenance of ‘ethnic’ food traditions and how sharing food knowledge plays a role in intercultural exchanges. Ethnographic data from an ongoing study in Melbourne is presented to highlight how, in everyday practices, both tradition and innovation are involved in learning experiences related to cooking. Using an everyday multiculturalism perspective, the study was designed to investigate the resilience of ethnic food cultures in the face of increasing industrialisation in global food systems. In this paper, I focus in particular on the interplay between tradition and innovation in everyday settings by drawing closely on three women’s accounts of cooking and learning. The women remain attached to the food traditions they learned by observing and taking part in daily routines of meal preparation 596 When traditions become innovations and innovations and they stress that many of these practices need to be preserved. At the same time, their accounts reveal how everyday settings can be considered as ‘pedagogical spaces’ where opportunities for innovation arise and new knowledge about food and cooking can be acquired. Families, schools, travel, workplaces and neighbourhood networks emerged as sites where traditional food knowledge can be shared and new skills developed. The paper contributes to our understanding of food pedagogies by highlighting the dynamic relationship between tradition and innovation in everyday, mundane encounters and exchanges in multicultural societies.
