Gastrodiplomacy

I love food! I am working on a section of this website dedicated to "gastrodiplomacy."

• Gastro: "relating to the stomach" (Oxford Languages)
• Diplomacy: "the art of dealing with people in a sensitive and effective way" (Oxford Languages)
• Gastrodiplomacy: connecting with people through their stomachs

The Wikipedia page for gastrodiplomacy uses a quote from Paul S. Rockower to describe the basic premise: "the easiest way to win hearts and minds is through the stomach."

Stay tuned for more! I hope to have some posts up during Summer 2025.
