Occupation Food researcher and writer
Location Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Introduction CooksInfo (https://www.cooksinfo.com) is an online food encyclopaedia offering researched, referenced articles on food and food history. It busts food myths, drawing heavily on primary sources and the latest peer-reviewed papers for a given subject matter. It takes a multi-disciplinary approach, believing that research from disparate fields such as classics, literature, history, politics, sociology and food science can combine to provide interlocking layers of information on a subject. Pains are taken to ensure that academic language and terminology are avoided, that any necessary terms are explained, and that subjects are presented in accessible, plain English that both informs and entertains. Established 1999.
