Synopsis

Weird Food Facts explores the captivating history of our diets, revealing the surprising stories behind everyday foods and the unusual culinary practices that have shaped global cuisine. It's more than mere food trivia; it's a journey into how history, culture, and even superstition have influenced what we eat. For example, Europeans once considered tomatoes poisonous, illustrating how perceptions of food can drastically change over time. The book sheds light on how trade and exploration introduced new ingredients, and it examines periods where food scarcity dictated choices.

 
The book unfolds across chapters dedicated to key themes: unusual ingredients, unexpected origins, and bizarre eating customs. It delves into the often-accidental discoveries and historical events that led to the foods we consume today. By examining these strange and often overlooked aspects of food history, Weird Food Facts encourages readers to question their own biases and assumptions about what is "normal" or "acceptable," ultimately fostering a more informed and open-minded approach to food.

    Cassoulet Confessions is an enthralling memoir by award-winning food and travel writer Sylvie Bigar that reveals how a simple journalistic assignment sparked a culinary obsession and transcended into a quest for identity. Set in the stunning southern French countryside, this honest and poignant memoir conveys hunger for authentic food and a universal hunger for home. In Cassoulet Confessions, Sylvie travels across the Atlantic from her home in New York to the origin of cassoulet—the Occitanie region of Southern France. There she immerses herself in all things cassoulet: the quintessential historic meat and bean stew. From her first spoonful, she is transported back to her dramatic childhood in Geneva, Switzerland, and finds herself journeying through an unexpected rabbit hole of memories. Not only does she discover the deeper meanings of her ancestral French cuisine, but she is ultimately transformed by having to face her unsettling, complex family history. 
     
     
     
    Sylvie's simple but poetic prose immerses us in her story: we smell the simmering aromas of French kitchens, empathize with her family dilemmas, and experience her internal struggle to understand and ultimately accept herself.
