Katherine Kirkwood Thesis (PDF 1MB) SUPERFOOD ME: NEGOTIATING AUSTRALIA’S POST-GOURMET FOOD CULTURE Katherine Eulynn Kirkwood BMassComn BMedia&Comn(Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Digital Media Research Centre | School of Communication Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2021 Keywords Animal products Big Food Culinary culture Culinary media Ethical consumption Food culture Food media Food television Food System Exposé Meat Post-Gourmet Strategic Impact Documentary Super Size Me Sustainable consumption That Sugar Film Vegetarianism Veganism Waste Superfood Me: Negotiating Australia’s Post-Gourmet Food Culture i Abstract Australian food culture has arguably adopted a more health-conscious and ethical stance. This position is also reflected in contemporary food media, which is emerging in a post-broadcast environment. This thesis examines these developments in food culture and food media, positing that Australia is in the midst of what I call a post-gourmet phase. It argues that consumers are increasingly aware of the industrial food system’s consequences and that such concerns are manifested in the adoption of ethically and sustainably focused food practices. A key way in which the machinations of the industrial food system have entered mainstream consciousness is through a genre of texts I label Food System Exposés (FSEs). I argue that although these non- fiction books—like Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma—and documentaries—like Super Size Me—have existed for decades, their recent proliferation warrants recognising these texts as a key genre in shaping contemporary food discourses. These changes are brought to light in this thesis through two methods. Semi- structured in-depth interviews were conducted with members of 13 households, as well as eight participants from the food and food media industries, all of whom were based in Brisbane, Australia. Textual analysis of FSEs—including Super Size Me and That Sugar Film—complements the interview findings, highlighting not only industrialised food’s impact on consumer health, animals, workers, and the environment, but also how the industry’s obfuscating tactics make it difficult for everyday households to make informed food choices. These developments in culinary culture have led to a renegotiation of what constitutes culinary capital. One caveat on these findings are social bonds between friends or family that are exercised over food. Social connections ii Superfood Me: Negotiating Australia’s Post-Gourmet Food Culture tended to override participants’ appreciation of gourmet, healthy, or ethical food. Together, these findings set out the Australian culinary scene in the mid-to-late 2010s and foreshadows the future direction for food culture and media in this country after three decades of lifestyle-oriented food media.

We have been planning for an exciting year and are eager to get started. The Student Planner and Parent-Student Handbook have been designed to help students make the best of their educational experience at FLS. They provide the framework for conducting the business of education at Fredericktown Local Schools. The vision, mission, and belief statements on the back cover outline the high ideals which each of us strives for daily. They embrace the expectations of the district and community, as well as declare the core values of the FLS staff. Inside the handbook, various policies and procedures are detailed to assist students and parent(s) or guardian(s) with issues ranging from academic support and attendance procedures to grade cards and progress reports. Equally important is the Student Conduct Code, which details the standards for student behavior. This handbook, however, is not a complete summary of all of the policies, practices and procedures that apply to students during their enrollment in the District. If a situation occurs where you are unsure what may be expected, please speak to a school official. If there are any conflicts between the provisions of this handbook and Board Policy, the requirements of the Board-adopted Policy will be applied.

  • Andy Allen Was Just One Exam Short of Becoming a Fully-Qualified Electrician When He Entered Masterchef Australia As a Dare from His Mates
    Andy Allen was just one exam short of becoming a fully-qualified electrician when he entered Masterchef Australia as a dare from his mates. Four years later, he hasn’t looked back. The boy from Maitland had a culinary baptism of fire during the series, eventually walking away with the title of Masterchef’s youngest ever winner. Andy soon packed his bags and moved to Sydney, and began working under the guidance of Darren Robertson and Mark LaBrooy at Bronte’s Three Blue Ducks. In 2013 Andy and his mate Ben Milbourne (Masterchef 2012 alumni) made good on their promise of visiting Mexico together, and it’s here that they connected with a Producer and began filming their culinary travels, in what became web series Andy & Ben Do Mexico. From here, things continued to remain flatout in the kitchen for Andy, but the curious chef had a foodie travel itch he couldn’t ignore. Next up, the boys co-produced the Spain and Portugal leg of what became their first television series Andy & Ben Eat The World, which received national broadcast in 2015. In 2016 Andy hit the road closer to home, with Andy & Ben Eat Australia. Andy is an author, a blogger (he won Pedestrian’s 10th Annual Food Blogger of the Year in 2015). He has appeared on The Today Show America, worked with numerous charities and continues to make people laugh and learn new things about food by sharing his passion for learning. In 2016, Andy added ‘restauranter’ to his CV, going into business as co-owner and chef of the Three Blue Ducks, Rosebery.

  • THE FIVE BEST FOOD FILMS of ALL TIME EFF Speech on Tuesday, March 21, 2017
    THE FIVE BEST FOOD FILMS OF ALL TIME EFF Speech on Tuesday, March 21, 2017 By Chris Palmer Mention plan for evening and EcoComedy winners at end and thank TNC. As I’ve said before, this evening is pretentiously called “An Evening with Chris Palmer.” The Festival asked me to do this event about 12 years ago, and I’ve been doing it annually ever since. Tonight I want to talk about the five best food films of all time. Now everyone please stand up, find someone you’ve never met before, and discuss for two minutes the best food films you’ve ever seen. Go! Ask audience members for their ideas! You may have noticed that I didn’t give you much structure for this question. Does food refer to nutrition, agriculture, factory farming, obesity, food waste, junk food, global food trade, or what? Also, by best food films, was I referring to impact? Did the film influence consumers’ purchasing decisions? Did policy makers take action to address, for example, the wretchedness of the standard American diet? Was there a lot of press coverage? Or by best food films, did I simply mean your favorite? As you can see, selecting the five best food films is complicated. Food is important to me for personal reasons. My father died of prostate cancer, and I have his genes. As I’ve researched and learned about cancer, I’ve become convinced that a plant-based diet is the best way to prevent prostate cancer. At the same time, a plant-based diet is one of the most powerful ways to fight climate change and to stop animal cruelty.

  • My-Kitchen-Rules-Presentation.Pdf
    REAL FOOD REAL PEOPLE A new batch of home cooks step up to the stove in 2014 in what promises to be one of the most hotly contested series in My Kitchen Rules history. It’s state versus state as teams of two attempt to out-dine and out-wine each other to determine whose kitchen rules. Each team will take turns to transform an ordinary home into an instant restaurant for one pressure cooker night. They’ll plate up a three-course menu designed to impress the judges and their fellow contestants. Manu Feildel and Pete Evans return to host and judge this ultimate home cooking battle. And, this year, they’re bringing some surprises to the table. The MKR Food Truck, a massive red semi-trailer decked out with a state-of-the-art commercial kitchen, is just one of the twists the contestants won’t see coming. It’s going to be one of the toughest challenges MKR contestants have ever faced. It’s going to push even the best cooks to breaking point. In another competition first, the knives are out when select MKR teams form a jury to judge other team’s meals. The judges table will see the return of familiar faces Guest judges: Colin Fassnidge Guy Grossi Karen Martini Liz Egan This year’s contenders: GROUP 1 New South Wales – Annie and Jason (Married cheese makers) Western Australia – Chloe and Kelly (Well-travelled friends) South Australia – Deb and Rick (Married 38 years) Australian Capital Territory – Andrew and Emelia (Newly dating) Queensland – Paul and Blair (Surfer dads) Victoria – Helena and Vikki (Twins) GROUP 2 New South Wales – Uel and Shannelle (Newlyweds) Western Australia – Jess and Felix (Designer and miner) South Australia – Bree and Jessica (Proud mums) Tasmania – Thalia and Bianca (Besties) Queensland – David and Corinne (Couple two years) Victoria – Harry and Christo (Best mates) The top-rating Seven production has built a huge following since it premiered in 2010.
