In Search of Ethnological Research on Sustainable Foodways

Abstract

All research fields have a prehistory, and the theme of this special issue is no exception to that rule. When I was invited to offer a commentary based on my comments in the ‘Baking the rules’ session at the SIEF congress in 2021, I realised that there was a need to put the comments in context. They were based on both research and applied work within the field of food ethnology, in which I have been working since I first started my PhD project in the first months of the new millennium. In this introductory commentary, I provide a personal background to the theme of the issue, and I have also taken the op-portunity to include a wish list for future research in the field.
