About AFR

American Food Roots addresses the question: “Why do we eat what we eat?” The answer depends, of course, on where you live, where you used to live, where your grandparents lived. Then there are the ebbs and flows of our status as an agricultural nation. Don’t forget politics, religion and fashion. It’s all there on the American plate.
