本書探討了飲食文化和技術之間的複雜關係，其中包括口味、品嚐和分銷等各種問題，因為它們從技術的物質和非物質方面出現並涉及到技術的物質和非物質方面。 這些辯證法對於我們理解食物品質、文化偏好、身份和界限、飲食文化的全球化以及我們創造和生活的所有感官景觀至關重要。

This book examines the complex relationship between food cultures and technologies, which encompasses the diverse issues of taste, tasting, and distribution as they emerge from and engage both material and non-material aspects of technology. These dialectics are crucial for our understanding of food qualities, cultural preferences, identities and boundaries, the globalization of food cultures, and above all the sensescapes we create and live in.
