Oxford, New York: Berg, 2001.
It's a collection of the following papers:

belonging in past and present / Peter Scholliers
Commensality and social morphology : an essay of
typology / Claude Grignon -- Upholding status :
the diet of a noble family in early nineteenth-century
La Mancha / Carmen Sarasúa -- Promise of more.
The rhetoric of (Food) consumption in a society
searching for itself : West Germany in the 1950s

virtues of the Italian working-class diet in the
first half of the twentieth century / Paolo Sorcinelli
-- Bourgeois good? Sugar, norms of consumption and
the labouring classes in nineteenth-century France
/ Martin Bruegel-- Old people, alcohol and identity

nutrition exhibition : a new nutritional narrative

Wine, champagne and the making of French identity in
the Belle Epoque /Kolleen M. Guy -- Reading food riots

the medieval and renaissance eras.
