Review:
Synopsis:
Praise for Sherrie A. Inness and her previous works:
"Thoughtful and thought-provoking essays...This engaging collection complements and energizes the research..." - Janet Theophano, author of Eat My Words
"Drawing on an encyclopedic, first-hand knowledge of popular cultural texts... [Inness's] treatment of the subject is comprehensive and accessible." - Choice
"[Dinner Roles] has every indication of becoming a standard reference in the field of food and gender studies." - Patricia M. Gantt, Utah State University
"Vivid detail, skillful interweaving of sources, humor, and an engaging personal voice create a delightful reading experience." - Stephanie Levine, Tufts University
"Makes an exciting and original contribution to the growing field of 'girls studies'...essential." - Lynne Vallone, author of Disciplines of Virtue
In a series of fascinating chapters highlighting the 1950s convenience-food cookbooks to the 1960s "I Hate to Cook Book" to the 1980s rise in 'white trash' cookbooks and the surprise success of the "Two Fat Ladies" books from the 1990s, leading author Sherrie Inness analyzes how women have used cookbooks over the years to protest social norms. While other books on cooking culture deal with gender stereotyping and traditional roles for women, Inness argues that cookbooks have always had a political agenda. Exploring a fifty-year span, "Secret Ingredients" demonstrates how cooking literature continues to be a valuable tool for understanding how race, class and ethnicity are constructed.
