Hungry is now accepting submissions for
Issue 07: “Funeral Foods”
This issue opens up space for feelings and thoughts around grief and food. The recipes lost when a loved one passes away, the dishes we can no longer indulge in after a break up, connections to culture lost, the community recipes for feeding many people at a funeral, the grief we feel when we see the impacts of climate change on traditional foodways. In our grief we also celebrate what was, cooking our ancestors’ favourite meals, finding connection at your local restaurant, and finding an old recipe book.
