I’ve been pondering getting one of these started. I love to cook and eat. However, one of the things I’ve discovered is that as I get older, I’m increasingly locked into a certain style of cooking. I cook rich predominately French, Italian, Yankee homestyle with a some Japanese and Thai recipes thrown in for good order.

However, there are many other culinary styles that I’ve rarely experimented with, and many beyond these that I probably have never even considered/been conscience of. I’d like to poll the gumboot community as to what types of foods they prepare. To take the poll – just head to the poll to the right of this post on the sidebar.

I’d also be interested in getting everyone’s thoughts regarding food sharing programs and whether a) they exist in the city AND b) you think they’re a good idea.

And for those of you who’ll read this post and not poll I say: common it just takes a minute…
