"Little has been written on the relationship between food and friendship in anthropology and food studies. Even less has been written about portraiture. Alice Julier (2013) argues that friendship offers alternative ways to understand how people create and sustain social insularity and hierarchy. At dinner parties or at food studies universities, friendship also organizes and produces social life. It is surprising, then, that so little discussion has addressed the role of friendship as a significant relationship by which people come to know, communicate, economize, and politicize food. Often, friendship gets nested under other terms and categories: kinship, community, neighbors, guests, peers, colleagues."
