Eaten Magazine Volume 25: Feasts

EATEN No. 25: Feasts wallows through the good and the bad of historical extravagance, featuring stories on everything from Stalin's reign of dinner party terror to the colorful generosity of Frida Kahlo's celebrations and the enduring decadence of the all you can eat buffet.

Contributors include:

• Helena Mushili O'Neill on the Pan-African origins of Kwanzaa in the United States
• J.D. Harlock on the legacy of the feast of the pheasant in medieval Europe
• Sakhi Thirani on the anti-caste roots of the Sikh langar
• Jamal Dauda on the resilience of feasts for the dead in Benin

EATEN is a new, beautifully designed print magazine focused on everything food history. Every quarter we publish a new volume filled with a cornucopia of old recipes, enlightening gastronomic essays, and the fascinating and forgotten tales of the people who have grown, cooked, and enjoyed all things edible over the centuries.

Our contributors and readers are a cohort of passionate journalists, historians, and gastronomers eager to celebrate the past and present of what we eat.
