| Research Interests and Focus |
| Dr. Amy Trubek focuses on doing qualitative research to explore the the relationship between food and culture and the emergence of the contemporary food system. Presently her research concerns the increasing importance of the ?taste of place? for farmers, chefs, vintners, cheesemakers and others both in Europe and the United States. She is also looking at how people?s cooking knowledge and skill in the United States plays a role in individual health. |
