Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In the last forty or fifty years, there are multiple histories of food and eating practices marked by globalization, or hybridization, or the pervasion of ethnic cuisines, or the emergence and development of nouvelle cuisine and its many offspring in a multiplicity of local cuisines. Each development follows its own temporality, its own rhythm, its own complex of disruptions and transformations, its own set of associations and consequences. Our bodies are constantly traversed by tastes, textures, culinary meanings, and, in general, eating experiences that combine the familiar and the unfamiliar, the strange, the different, in ever-changing amalgamations. In nouvelle cuisine, one does not consume just food but images, signs, and meanings that refer to other meanings and are devoid of anything substantial. In fusion cooking, everything becomes strange and familiar at the same time: the boundary between otherness and familiarity itself dissipates. Each person keeps moving, sometimes returning to the same space, sometimes staying away for a long time, visiting some more often than others, each person leaving a different trail of footprints in the landscape of eating practices. And this wandering, I suggest, becomes ultimately ordinary, a building block of our sense of the familiar. It is in the wanderings themselves that the nomad feels at home.
