Description:

Twenty-first century Australia is a nation somewhat obsessed with food. From cookbooks to television screens, we are surrounded by conversations about what and how we eat. This fixation highlights the fact that food is, and always has been, a central component of human culture especially in a diverse nation like Australia.

In recent years, this contemporary food focus has increasingly looked to the past for answers relating to health and sustainable practices. While historians in Australia have contributed extensively to these discussions, there has been surprisingly little input from archaeologists. This is even more surprising when we consider that so much of what archaeologists excavate such as faunal remains, ceramics and cesspits can collectively tell the story of food culture when drawn together and considered as a whole.

To open up this dialogue, Archaeologies of Food in Australia addresses the archaeology of food from deep time to the recent past. It showcases the many varied approaches to the study of food in Australia, from the archaeological sciences (such as zooarchaeology and archaeobotanical analysis) through to discussions of historic kitchens and cookery.

Archaeologies of Food in Australia spans diverse cultural groups, including First Nations peoples, European migrants and Chinese diaspora communities, and examines evidence across millennia. Contributors demonstrate the breadth and richness of archaeological food research currently undertaken in Australia, and in doing so, they address critical questions about diet, cookery, dining and food culture.

Great pans for meal trains or prep
Size: 10P -9×13 In, Color: Silver
Great pans for delivering meals to people or prepping freezer food. Four stars because they are slightly smaller than a 9x13 pan, but they still work great for most recipes. They are much cheaper than the stores.

Pleasantly Surprised

Reviews for this product were varied, but I decided to give it a go. A wise choice. These arrived on time, in a plastic bag, in a box, inside a sturdier box…in perfect condition. They are very sturdy compared to most I’ve seen. I used them in preparing a meal for a family who lost a loved one. If they easily accommodate 5 lbs of potato salad, I’d say they’re sturdy. I also used them for sliders, and a couple of fruit trays.

Fantastic
Size: 20P -8 × 8 In w/ lid, Color: Silver
I bought these while making a small army of casseroles and freezer meals for family memberhaving surgery. They survived being filled, carried, stacked, transported, and generally treated far less gently than they probably should have. The lids fit well and were worth their weight in gold. Not having to battle aluminum foil every time I needed to cover a dish was a welcome bonus. The lids stayed put. The pans were sturdy, traveled well, and were the best price I found for covered 8x8 disposable pans. Sometimes the boring kitchen supplies end up being the most satisfying purchases, and this was one of them. I'd definitely buy these again.
