Silverman and Purnell: Barefoot (Contessa) in the Kitchen Teaching Media Quarterly Volume 2, Edition 2 (Winter 2014): Teaching about Food and Media Barefoot (Contessa) in the Kitchen Overview and Rationale It is well known that popular culture represents and perpetuates the gender inequities that exist in our culture. Food media are no exception (Swenson, 2013). In fact, food media use gendered cultural norms to sell audiences their products (the shows, the cookbooks, the advertisements during the shows, etc.). In other words, food media commodify gender by selling audiences what they already understand to be true about gender as a way to increase profit (Forbes, 2013). Food media, and food television in particular, offer sites to examine the cultural struggles of gender. Both food and gender are intensely personal, social, and culturally specific phenomena (Barthes, 2013/1961). Further, television shapes the way we understand culture (Fiske, 2010). According to Cramer (2011): As a manifestation of culture, food is one of the most potent media for conveying meanings related to identity, ethnicity, nationhood, gender, class, sexuality and religion – in short, all those aspects of social, political and relational life that convey who and what we are and what matters to us.

CROIX FOUNDATION THURSDAY, APRIL 16 • 6PM • DIVI CARINA BAY RESORT PRESSURE BUSSPIPE * KATALYSS * WORLD FAMOUS EXPRESS BAND WELCOME TO THE 15TH ANNIVERSARY! CULTIVATING ST. CROIX As we celebrate our 15th Anniversary, we cannot help but reflect on the last 15 years. Always, the vibes of St. Croix have been conscious, embedding food, agriculture and the importance of ‘breaking bread’ with someone into our very culture. But in the last 15 years, we’ve all witnessed the culinary industry on St. Croix evolve into something more than just industry. It’s now a community that attracts world-wide attention and still retains its roots. How’ve we done it? Anyone will tell you we’ve done it by being resilient, by embracing the rebirth and appreciation of our natural resources, agriculture, fish, arts, culture & community. We do this by building strong connections with every segment of our community that we can --- from our local fishermen, farmers, and distributors to schools, sister nonprofits, and national friends. Together, we are woven into the threads of St. Croix’s socioeconomic fabric, cultivating our island in ways that have multiple benefits for so many. Together we are creative, flexible, and strong while always mindful to be gentle with the Earth. This is our philosophy. And again and again, it continues to create gems that make this island more than just paradise, but a home that you cannot leave; a place you have to visit, again and again.
