| I would just like to welcome everyone to our new forum which is devoted to Food History. Our very own Atheneaus has kindly agreed to moderate this forum and with such a love of food history and a vast knowledge on the subject I can't think of a better person. Enjoy!

| Yes! The History of Food Forum is a fact. I am very happy about it. I want to thank Nicko for making it real. When I first logged-in to Chef Talk to ask about Sun dried tomatos, I couldn't imagine that my relation with this community would go that far. But things went too smoothly and normal and without realising how , soon I had to change place of my pc in the house so as to be close to my cooking books, that they are up to 2500. History can be a very tricky subject. It may seem general or vague but if you think about it , it's very personal. I think that nothing can be more personal than the eating tradition and food of one's family. I can see people getting angry just because they thought that you offended their grandma's recipe! I personally will continue to add small stories and referencies in the other threads too, as I used to do. Sometimes the historical point must be added on a specific occasion. It's exactly like a spice ![]() I am looking forward to your posts!

| Mon petit Athenaeus, Félicitations! Dear Abby is thrilled to see the introduction of this Food History Forum. Although she does not claim to know a tremendous amount about the food history, she has perhaps lived a little history. She very much looks forward to reading the wonderful posts and hopes to have some little thing to contribute herself. Bonne chance. Abby

| I'm glad this forum has finally come to fruition, and what better member to moderate it? I look forward to reading and learning, since it's not a subject I know a lot about. |
