Abstract "In the hierarchy of foods, snacks are deemed trivial-perhaps even juvenile-especially in contrast to meals, which are seen as substantial and necessary. The ubiquity of snacks is a relatively new phenomenon, one that is not universal to all countries. Snack traces the story of how snacking culture came to be through investigations of specific snacks, including Flamin' Hot Cheetos, popcorn, and Pocky, and in the context of issues of ethnicity, class, gender, popular culture, and even parenting. Ultimately, Snack provides an idiosyncratic cultural history to offer new ways of looking at the grocery store snack aisles"-- Provided by publisher.
