Book excerpt: During the 17th century, England saw foreign foods made increasingly available to consumers and featured in recipe books, medical manuals, treatises, travel narratives, and even in plays.

Through exotic presentations in popular culture, they were able to mentally partake of products for which they may not have had access.
