A taste of Paris
Canadian Geographic has had a steady diet of food-related stories over the years,
from New Brunswick salmon to Ontario icewine to British Columbian mushrooms. We've looked
at how the foods we eat have influenced our lifestyles, and how our lifestyles have in turn
affected how we obtain that food. These stories from our past issues represent a feast for
the eyes and mind, sure to whet your appetite for our special issue all about food.
