About the Show

American Foodways celebrates the people, the places, and the passion behind America’s real-food revival. In thirteen 26-minute segments, New York Times food columnist John T Edge explores the cultural meaning and gustatory magic of regional favorites such as Hangtown fry and crawfish pie, and he learns the stories of the people who produce and prepare them.

American Foodways attracts viewers who watch food/travel/cooking programs such as Feasting on Asphalt, No Reservations, and Mexico: One Plate at a Time. But American Foodways is more than just another food/travel/cooking program. It’s the first television series to explore our country’s unique terroir and to show how our regional foods — in all their smallness, slowness, and delicious diversity — embody the best of America.
