Dear Foodsville Residents:

I have been informed by many citizens that each of us has been inundated by Foodsville email with links to articles that have been previously published. I have alerted the Public Works Department about this unwanted torrent that is flooding our beloved citizens. They have turned off the main valve and normalcy has been restored. I apologize for this incontinence. 


Dear Residents of Foodsville:

Yikes! I just got an email from the Head of the Foodsville Public Works Department. He informed me that all of the electricity going to Foodsville will be shut off for a couple of hours tomorrow (Tuesday, April 8, 2008, 9-11 am GMT, 4-6 am EDT, 1-3 am PDT).

Apparently, the main Foodsville generator (or something) is being moved to the other side of the Great Pond. I have great confidence in our Public Works Department, but if you can't see anything when you come...


Ruth Reichl: Favorite Food Memoirs appeared on NPR last summer. In an interview with Steve Inskeep, the editor of Gourmet talked some of her favorite memoirs. Reichl summed up today's interest in food memoir: "People are writing their lives in food. They are actually looking at the world food-first." Here are books available on Foodsville that Ruth Reichl mentions.

We hope that you will take the time to share your expertise about food and food-related things with the rest of the community by writing an article. Residents are interested in many different aspects of food. No topic is too small to address in an article. An article can be about a book, a recipe, an ingredient, a place, a time, an experience, or an idea. Articles should not b...


When user Cynthia posted her article on rum, I realized we needed to add a way to link back and forth between the subject of the Feed and the ever-growing content on the site. In order to accomplish that, I have aded a new feature to today's Feed. The Title of the Feed is now a link that brings you to any content in Foodsville tagged with that exact phrase. Authors should now consider tagging their articles and recipes, past and present, with titles from past Feeds. To tag articles, add words in...


As the fastest growing group on Foodsville, the Porkers of Foodsville now have something to squeal about. Today, the Chairman of the Branding Committee of the Porkers of Foodsville unveiled a new logo. Porkers will no doubt be learning more about the heritage of this logo at their "meat-up" this coming Tuesday at Bison County in Waltham, Massachusetts. For those who are unaware of the event, information is here. Please join the Porkers at this first-ever gathering of Foodsville citizens for what...


Deputy Mayor, City Council, Public Works Department, Fellow Citizens:



As a new community slowly gathers, all of us in Foodsville share a great privilege: building a new city dedicated to sharing food and cookbooks. And tonight, I would like to thank each and every one of you and let you know how we will take your efforts and make the community ever stronger.



Two months ago, I stood on the steps of Foodsville City Hall and cut the ribbon to open the gates of Foodsville, so that any and all would be...

Dear Foodsville:

I wanted to write to the first citizens of Foodsville to thank you for your help in getting Foodsville open. We have dropped the shield of secrecy from the site. No longer is it necessary for people to enter a password (formerly EAT) to access the site. We continue to welcome feedback, so that we can continue to improve the site.

As we enter the new year, you will no doubt note that the Free Library is growing. Every day in the Foodsville Feed, I will try to find ...
