The Forbidden Feast: A Comprehensive Journey into Humanity's Most Extreme Culinary Traditions: Bushmeat, Wild Meat, Exotic Food, and Gamey Delicacies - Softcover
Synopsis
A Global Exploration of the World’s Most Extreme Foods—and What They Reveal About Us
For over two billion people, eating insects is an everyday practice. For millions more, bushmeat is a necessity, not a choice. And for a wealthy few, consuming endangered species is the ultimate status symbol. What drives these practices—and what are their consequences?
The Forbidden Feast is a comprehensive anthropological journey into the world’s most controversial foods. Award-winning cultural anthropologist Dr. Roy Shiba takes you across six continents, exploring the culinary traditions that challenge our assumptions about food, culture, and morality.
Inside this book, you’ll discover:
The psychological roots of food taboos and why they vary across cultures
The nutritional and environmental case for eating insects
The devastating impact of the bushmeat trade on endangered species
The role of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the illegal wildlife trade
The cultural significance of dog meat, snake, crocodile, and other controversial meats
The future of food: how sustainable alternatives can replace forbidden delicacies
Whether you’re a food lover, an anthropology enthusiast, or someone concerned about conservation and sustainability, The Forbidden Feast offers a compelling, eye-opening look at the hidden corners of global cuisine. It’s a book that informs, challenges, and ultimately asks: What will we eat tomorrow?
