Nibbles, noshes, and tasty little plates -- Pickles, salsas, and other condiments, savory and sweet -- Steaming bowls: soups, chowders, and other consolations -- Bread: an unrefined history -- Conspicuous consumption of cellulose: salads -- From sea to shining sea: fish and shellfish -- Taming fire: a social history of American stoves -- Poultry in every pot, oven, broiler, and grill -- Cooking for crowds -- Everything but the squeal: beef, buffalo, game, lamb and pork -- Eat your vegetables -- Amber waves of grain -- Ice cream for all -- The sweet life.
