Dan's new book, Eating to Extinction: the world’s rarest foods and why we need to save them, is a real attention-grabber, an exceptionally wide-ranging, informative clarion call alerting us to the diminishing biodiversity in our food chain caused by intensive agriculture, climate change, industrialisation, migration, genetic erosion, and increasingly homogenised food tastes. There’s only so much bad news I can take, so | was overjoyed to find that Dan’s book was as much an inspiring guide to the pioneering individuals, indigenous groups, scientists, and food producers who are championing the world’s rich food heritage, as a warning about what threatens it. Dan's biodiversity journey was triggered by the international Slow Food Organisation's ‘Ark of Taste’. A sort of register of foods that might otherwise disappear into oblivion, it now contains 5,312 foods from 130 countries, with 762 others on the list waiting to be assessed. hitpspt scr comfarticte/527714206/Joanna-Biythman-Detend-Your-Local-Food-Heritage 227042022 11:21 Leia Joanna Biythman defend Your Local Food Heritage onine ~ — (rsaisr UA OO Sicily’s vanilla orange, Kavilica wheat in Anatolia, Olotén maize in Oaxaca, bison in the US, Pu- Erh tea in China, German Alb lentils, French Salers cheese, Criollo cacao in Venezuela, Lambic beer in Belgium, wild Ethiopian forest coffee, Danish flat oysters; these are just a few of the thousands of food traditions we risk losing forever. How did we arrive at this erosion of choice and biodiversity? The physicist Albert-Laszlé Barabsi argues that the driving force behind science in the last century was a relentless ‘reductionism’, an over-simplified, understanding of how the natural world works. The erosion of food biodiversity we are now witnessing suggests that, in the modern drive to increase food production by breeding high-yielding crops and more ‘efficient’ livestock breeds, we've abandoned too much of the farming wisdom that went before it. Dan draws our attention to the battle on our doorsteps to defend our precious local food heritage, He highlights the situation of wild Atlantic salmon in Ireland and Scotland, its future threatened by intensive salmon farming. hitpspt scr comfarticte/527714206/Joanna-Biythman-Detend-Your-Local-Food-Heritage 227042022 11:21 Leia Joanna Blythman defend Your Local Food Heritage onine & Scripo (Pesquser avn @ Engusn cheese rollowing traaitional artisan metnoas, ana using tne time-nonourea raw milk.

On Orkney, bere meal - a type of nutrient- dense barley grown there since Neolithic times ~ has been rescued. In the 1960s, just six crofters still grew it, and most of it was fed to livestock. Now, food writers, notably Scottish baker Sue Lawrence, use it to make shortbread and bannocks, while brewers and distillers make beer and whisky. These foods, and thousands like them, Dan explains, represent much more than sustenance. They are history, culture, geography, science and craft. We must make them our future.
