The papers included in this volume deal with meeting points, negotiations, and the exercise of choice, with regard to food, drink and meals in historical and contemporary situations. They also focus on museums as public institutions and their role in the conservation of material and non-material data about foodways. Their obligation to interpret and transmit cultural information about food and drink to a wider public, by means of exhibitions and other forms of museum presentations, is also discussed.
