teh crispz0r

by Rex on August 31st, 2006

It has been a little while since antropologi.info “pointed out”:http://www.antropologi.info/blog/anthropology/anthropology.php?p=2082&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 the open access journal “anthropology of food”:http://edition.cens.cnrs.fr/revue/aofood/ but it is just now that I had the time to look through the journal. It is _very_ French in that unique way that makes French people bad at rock and roll but able to turn the concept of “milk”:http://edition.cens.cnrs.fr/revue/aofood/2003/v/n2/ into a charming idea for a theme issue of a journal. My favorite is the special theme issue “crispy, crunchy… a dream of consistency”:http://edition.cens.cnrs.fr/revue/aofood/2003/v/n1/ which is even more mellifluous in French. Who can’t love an anthropology which raises crispiness to the status of a universal concept?
