Our Story

At the heart of our storytelling is an attempt to find ways to build connections between food and culture. We started WHEN WE EAT because we wanted to remind ourselves of the joys of eating, of the privilege of being surrounded by people when we eat, and of the stories that are told and retold amongst the intimacy of food.

We aspire to build a platform that is as informative as it is useful, one that is both inclusive and true.

We want to tell stories of the roots, origins and environments in which our food flourishes, of age-old food traditions and the communities that safeguard them, and of people who come together around tables the world over. At the heart of our mission is a desire to spotlight tales that may otherwise go untold.

This is only the beginning.
