Foodaism is my word for describing how food connects us to family, nature, community, politics and something bigger than ourselves. If you who have a faith, food can deepen and heighten your experience of community, tradition, even God.
You’re not a believer or a member, food can be your way in to the best things religion can offer: a sense of gratitude, tradition, community, connection to others, to nature, and to something ineffable and mysterious beyond us all.
Chances are whoever you are, you’ve felt this already. I just put a name on it.
