I thought that it was very interesting to learn about the connection between environmental concern and lesbian communities and how that related to food. Choosing to be vegan or vegetarian connotes a specific ethic and aligns oneself with non-violence and challenges a pervasive existing food structure and norms which goes along with the queer lens we talked about in class. Food is used, in a reclamation of the domestic sphere, as a way to proclaim one’s values and identity.
