This volume focuses on the relationship between food, aesthetics, philosophy, and somaesthetics, exploring how food is much more than a biological necessity. It invites readers to rethink food as a central element of human life—one that intertwines culture, art, ethics, and aesthetics—and encourages a more mindful, sustainable engagement with it. Covering a range of topics—from the philosophy of taste to mindful eating, sustainability, lab-grown meat, obesity, and environmental responsibility—the essays in this volume demonstrate and expand the richness and potential of food philosophy through the lens of somaesthetics.
