Culture, Cuisine, Food, Foodways

Among different elements of culture, food is one, which contribution to shape and define the culture is very big. The anthropological study of food reveals diversifying influence of food on culture and through it, on society. With differing culture, food practices and habits also differ, so much so that that different religion gives differing importance to different foods. By studying the food habits of these religions, we can see the reflection of cultural symbolism of food on it. Not only religion but the diversity of cuisines can also be seen in the caste system that follows the same notion. Focusing our study on the Western Odisha region of Odisha, India, we can observe this phenomenon with our eye. This region comes under the plateau region, hence filled with forest and hill tracts. The majority of people of this region are tribals. Due to co-habitation of tribals and others in this region, great cultural diversity is seen. These cultural diversities are reflected on its food practices. This region is unique for the unique agricultural related festivals. In these festivals food plays a major role. The people of this region eat wide-varieties of food and drinks. The major food ingredients are specifically the wide varieties of fruits, vegetables, other edible forest products and animal meat found in this region. Even the food etiquettes followed by the people of this region are different from others. Forest products, such as leaves are majorly use during festivities as platters. The objective of this study is to study the unique cuisine of this region to study the uniqueness of their culture from other region.
