This week we are talking about Portland's food culture. We touch on the diversity of authentic food (and where to find it) despite the lack of actual diversity in Portland and how this has led to accusations of cultural appropriation with regards to restaurants. We also discuss various diets, both cross-culturally, and across America. We focus on veganism, aka plant-based diets/lifestyles, but also touch on other types of dietary lifestyle choices and how they fit into the Portland food scene.
