The Food Adventurers by Daniel E Bender

Narrates the history of eating on around-the-world adventures.
'Finally, someone has written a book about the hypocrisy (or maybe just “ambiguity”) of gastro-tourism and how it has been marketedBut who knew this story could be presented as funny and ironic? From the colonial Dutch East Indies rijsttafel to Anthony Bourdain, Bender traces the nearly two-hundred-year history of the tug-of-war between tourists’ professed desire for authenticity and their need for comfort and familiarity.' – Paul Freedman, Chester D. Tripp Professor of History, Yale University, and author of American Cuisine
Daniel E. Bender is the Canada Research Chair in Food and Culture and a professor of food studies and history at the University of Toronto. Bender is the author or editor of many books including Food Mobilities: Making World Cuisines (2023).
