A review by sebrittainclark
The Best American Food and Travel Writing 2024 by Jaya Saxena, Padma Lakshmi

adventurous challenging reflective slow-paced

4.0

I thought this was an excellent collection of essays that engaged with a number of topics, both difficult and lighthearted, through the lens of food and travel. A standout for me was Forbidden Fruit about some of the contention surrounding the farming of avocados in Mexico.

Thanks to Netgalley and Mariner Books for an early copy.
