Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
In the 8 chapters of Secret Ingredients
Inness explores
a number of themes . . .
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
Inness suggests
that cooking literature
has been a space for nondominant
voices to be heard that might be
silenced in other genres
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
Secret Ingredients examines how
women from many backgrounds have
used cooking literature to question
society’s expectations about gender
roles and other issues

Secret Ingredients examines how
women from many backgrounds have
used cooking literature to question
society’s expectations about gender
roles and other issues
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“Women have used cooking
literature to voice their protests
against a society where they are
not always heard.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“Because cooking literature is an
‘acceptable’ female genre,
it has, since its beginnings,
allowed women to write about their
concerns.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“This modern literature not only
provides a place for discussing
contemporary food issues but it
also creates a place for women
to debate other social issues.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 14
“Cooking literature is a genre
where nonwhite and workingclass voices can be heard.”
“It is vital to hear these voice because
cooking culture’s celebrities tend to share
elite backgrounds.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“Voices other than those of
mainstream white authors deserve to
be heard so that we can understand
how women from various races,
ethnicities, and economic
backgrounds construct different
narratives about their lives.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
Secret Ingredients “. . . also
encourages readers to pay more
critical attention to cooking culture in
general, whether it be books,
television shows, internet sites, or
magazine articles.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“Although our society is replete with
culinary information, we rarely stop
to analyze what messages are being
distributed along with how to prepare
a casserole*”
[*that’s “hot dish” to Minnesotans].”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“Culinary culture not only conveys
recipes, but it is also equally intent
on passing on implicit and explicit
messages to people, confirming or
challenging our roles in society.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“Culinary culture not only conveys
recipes, but it is also equally intent
on passing on implicit and explicit
messages to people, confirming or
challenging our roles in society.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“If we wish to understand our
American lives, one useful place to
turn is the vast culinary universe and
its varied messages.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169

Food and food culture is an
“omnipresent part of our individual
lives. Food and its messages are
everywhere. . . .”
This cooking universe “shapes our
perceptions of American society and
the world and not only as those
perceptions relate to food . . .”

into the lives of the

Reay Tannahill also spends considerable time
discussing historical trends
through an analysis of “cookery books”
of various eras. This is an excellent work.

Cooking With the Two Fat Ladies, Clarkson Potter, 1998
Cooking With the Two Fat Ladies, Clarkson Potter, 1998
“Stars of the late 1990s hit television
series Two Fat Ladies, Jennifer Patterson
and Clarissa Dickson Wright, broke a
major social taboo by being fat.”
• this was a first for food television to depict
fat women positively
• Why is this unusual?
• . . . cooking is an industry where fat or
heavy set men have been embraced . . .
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“[The Two Fat] women did not try to
conceal their fatness but, instead,
reveled in it. . . .”
“Rebelling against a culture
that assumes women have to be thin
in order to star in the media,
the Fat Ladies delighted in their fatness.”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 169
“In addition, the Ladies challenged
the stereotype that it is taboo on
television to be
middle aged or older.”
• Jennifer Patterson was in her 60s
• Clarissa Dickson Wright was in her 50s
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 170
“The Ladies, however,
accomplished more
than just suggesting that it was
acceptable for women, including media
stars, to be fat and older.”
“In their TV show and cookbooks,
the Ladies spoke out about a number of
important social issues related to food
and the people who provide it. . . .”
Sherrie A. Inness, Secret Ingredients, Palgrave Macmillan, 2006, p. 170
“Despite its nontraditional female stars,
Two Fat Ladies was a great success
when if first aired.”
• they developed a cult following among those who
have an innate fondness for British eccentrics. . . .”
• they “made the Food Network worth watching”
• the program was a hit in other countries, including
Australia and Canada
