Author presentation: When food writer and mom,
Anastacia Marx de Salcedo wondered about the origin
of some of the sandwich fixings in her daughter’s
lunch box one day her curiosity  uncovered surprising
answers and led to Combat-Ready Kitchen: How the U.S. Military
Shapes the Way You Eat.

Combat-Ready Kitchen is a fascinating historical look
at how rations for soldiers developed, including the Aztecs and
the ancient Romans.

Several unsettling lessons are presented from the book others
describe as a fun food science read. But the content also illustrates
how products created for one industry can be marketed to a
completely new one.
