'Join acclaimed writers J. Kenji López-Alt, Dr. Cynthia Greenlee, Charlotte Druckman, and Silvia Killingsworth for a panel conversation with MOFAD on the current state and future of food writing in America. They discuss how journalism has been impacted in the face of major events this year, including COVID-19, Black Lives Matter, equity in food media, calls for greater food justice, and how —with these movements and events in mind— we move forward. The Best American Food Writing 2020 is guest edited by López-Alt, series edited by Killingsworth, and features the work of Dr. Greenlee and Druckman. More information on The Best American Food Writing 2020: Now in its third year, the collection features a foreword from series editor Silvia Killingsworth, an introduction from guest editor J. Kenji López-Alt, and works such as Dr. Cynthia Greenlee’s James Beard award-winning “A Real Hot Mess: How Grits Got Weaponized Against Cheating Men,” and Charlotte Druckman’s “We All Scream.” This year’s anthology captures the food industry at a critical moment in history — from the confrontation of abusive kitchen culture, to the disappearance of the supermarkets, to the rise and fall of celebrity chefs. Spanning from New York’s premier restaurants to the chile factories of New Mexico, this collection lifts a curtain on how food arrives on our plates, revealing extraordinary stories behind what we eat and how we live.'
