Hearts starve as well as bodies Give us bread, but give us roses
Bread and roses, bread and circus, let them eat cake. Carbs are an important part of history. Bread is said to be the most important invention in history. Flour, water, and heat. That’s all you need.
The title comes from a slogan popularized during the women’s suffrage & labour movements of the early 1900s. Give us bread, but give us roses too.
The worker needs bread to survive, but what is surviving for if not for smelling the roses?
I chose this name because this Substack meets at the intersection of food and politics. Food is political; our lives are political.
