Sinopse

Sacred Foods explores the profound connection between religious traditions and culinary practices worldwide. It reveals how faith shapes what, when, and how we eat, transforming simple meals into expressions of spiritual meaning. For example, dietary laws not only define religious identity but also influence culinary practices. Furthermore, communal feasting in different religions reinforces social bonds and preserves cultural heritage, demonstrating food's power beyond mere sustenance.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with core concepts such as food symbolism and dietary laws. It then delves into major religious traditions—Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism—examining their unique food rituals and beliefs. By integrating historical context and diverse research, Sacred Foods offers a comprehensive understanding of this relationship.

 
The book concludes by addressing contemporary challenges like ethical sourcing and interfaith dialogue, highlighting food's crucial role in fostering cultural sensitivity and inclusivity.
