  • Pet Or Food: Animals and Alimentary Taboos in Contemporary Children’S Literature
    Beyond Philology No. 14/3, 2017 ISSN 1732-1220, eISSN 2451-1498 Pet or food: Animals and alimentary taboos in contemporary children’s literature JUSTYNA SAWICKA Received 8.07.2017, received in revised form 16.09.2017, accepted 21.09.2017. Abstract In books for pre-school and early school-age children (4-9 years of age) published in Poland between 2008 and 2014 it is possible to observe a new alimentary taboo. Though statistics show that we consume more meat than ever, we seem to be hiding this fact from the children. The animal is disconnected from the meat, which becomes just a thing we eat so that there is no need to consider animal suffering or to apply moral judgement to this aspect. The analysed books, written by Scandinavian, Spanish and American and Polish authors, do not belong to the mainstream of children’s literature, but, by obscuring the connection between the animal and the food we consume, they seem to testify to the problem with this aspect of our world that the adults – authors, educators and parents. Key words alimentary taboo, children’s literature, pre-school children, animal story, Scandinavian children’s literature 88 Beyond Philology 14/3 Uroczy przyjaciel czy składnik diety: Tabu pokarmowe we współczesnych książkach dla dzieci Abstrakt Książki dla dzieci w wieku przedszkolnym i wczesnoszkolnym (4-9 lat) wydane w Polsce w latach 2008-2014 są świadectwem istnienia nowego tabu pokarmowego. Chociaż statystyki wskazują, że obecnie jemy więcej mięsa niż kiedykolwiek wcześniej, coraz częściej ukrywamy przed dziećmi fakt zjadania zwierząt. Odzwierzęcamy mięso i czynimy je przedmiotem, wtedy bowiem nie musimy zasta- nawiać się nad cierpieniem zwierząt i nad moralnym osądem tego faktu.

    The uses of blood in cooking1 . Blood pudding (black pudding) . Blood sausage . Blood tofu . Pressed duck . Blood stew (blood soup) . Pig’s blood with fried onions . Congealed blood as thickener . Vitality beverage with milk In 1950’s Seoul, my mother dropped out of school in seventh grade and went to work in a candy factory. My grandparents had gambled away all the earnings of the family furniture factory, then the factory itself. My mom’s brothers and sisters would eat sneaked out shards of candy for dinner. She worked twenty-odd hardscrabble years until she met her meal ticket, her plane ticket, a citizenship in America, and married him, ignoring his erratic, violent temper, his dishonorable discharge from the Air Force, his venomous hatred for the Korean people, my father. Koreans eat a dish called Soon-dae, simmered blood and meat custard with noodles and kimchi. My mother tricked me into eating it once before I realized what it was, why it was black and yielding.2 In America, my mother had a strict allowance from my father. Twenty dollars a week never bought enough flour, sugar, milk, oil, meat and produce for four people, so she grew vegetables in the yard and sent my brother and the neighborhood boys out fishing in the Mississippi for bass and catfish. I remember her squatting immodestly over a chopping block, the lawn seeping with blood and scales, and later, soft mouthfuls of free fish. My mother taught me a wife’s burden: to take half-portions of meat, smaller bowls of rice and soup, to let the men eat first and most.

  • 4 Yum Khao Tod
    To all our wonderful diners, It makes me truly happy, having achieved my goal of introducing homestyle Northern Thai cooking at the Wild Rose; hearing comments like, “My mother is also from Prae [a city in Northern Thailand] and your cooking reminds me of her.” Or in the case of our friend and customer, Eddy, who tried my special pork blood soup and said to me, “The last time I tasted anything like this was 20 years ago back in my hometown in Southeast Asia. Thank you again for reminding me of home, Paul.” Family recipes mean we are preparing the same dish that you might find in Chiang Mai, but we cook it the way our family loves to eat it – more lemongrass, less coconut milk, etc. At the Wild Rose, you are enjoying decades of recipes from my family, and this is what makes our dishes special. Our passion is to share the food that we love with all of you, which is why we “Think of our restaurant as a friend ’s respectably choose not to serve the dishes found in other Thai restaurants that some may be more home, join us for a meal and learn about familiar with. a new culture.” Instead of inquiring about Pad Thai, or something with peanut sauce, we urge you to step out of your comfort zone a little bit and try something like our creamy egg noodle curry soup called Khao Soi. Think of our restaurant as a friend’s home, join us for a meal and learn about a new culture.
