I would be interested in anything you could write about what might be called the 'psychology of food'. This for example seemed to be a dimension that we did not really discuss in some of your earlier posts about obesity. I don't mean to get into the whole area of eating disorders but something about why food is important to us and why we like the food we do. This obviously has a lot to do with culture, and I also think there is a psychological dimension. I also find your rants about food politics interesting. I have not yet understood why you seem to be opposed to the whole local, small-scale and slow food movement. It seems to be that large-scale industrial systems of food production have a lot to answer for in terms of environmental damage, let alone the whole controversy about how healthy this food is And thanks for the mention of my blog. warm regards Paul Rachel.
