I talk with Paul Freedman, a history professor at Yale and author of the book American Cuisine: And How It Got This Way which looks at the history of how food evolved over time in the US. in 1900 40% of US population worked in agriculture. Now that number is under 2%. Correspondingly food used to be 40% of a family’s budget and in 2016 that number was 12.6%. We talk about the positives and negatives of the industrialization of food, the evolution of food science, the 70s farm to table revolution, and more!
