520    Food has played a major role in funerary and memorial 
       practices since the dawn of the human race. In the ancient
       Roman world, for example, it was common practice to build 
       channels from the tops of graves into the crypts 
       themselves, and mourners would regularly pour offerings of
       food and drink into these conduits to nourish the dead 
       while they waited for the afterlife. Funeral cookies 
       wrapped with printed prayers and poems meant to comfort 
       mourners became popular in Victorian England; while in 
       China, Japan, and Korea, it is customary to offer food not
       only to the bereaved, but to the deceased, with ritual 
       dishes prepared and served to the dead. Dying to Eat is 
       the first interdisciplinary book to examine the role of 
       food in death, bereavement, and the afterlife. The 
       contributors explore the phenomenon across cultures and 
       religions, investigating topics including tombstone 
       rituals in Buddhism, Catholicism, and Shamanism; the role 
       of death in the Moroccan approach to food; and the role of
       funeral casseroles and church cookbooks in the Southern 
       United States. This innovative collection not only offers 
       food for thought regarding the theories and methods behind
       these practices but also provides recipes that allow the 
       reader to connect to the argument through material 
       experience. Illuminating how cooking and corpses both 
       transform and construct social rituals, Dying to Eat 
       serves as a fascinating exploration of the foodways of 
       death and bereavement.
