N ot only have the Mexican foods changed significantly in the United States\, they have also spread\nglobally\, to the chagrin of Mexicans who find Tex- Mex wherever they travel. In this talk\, Jeffrey Pilcher will examine early encounters with Mexican food\, including the chili “queens” of San Ant onio\nand the taco shops of Southern California. He will also attempt to sh ow how the resulting stereotypes have been carried around the world.

He has been fascinated by Mexican cuisine since his first visit to New Mexico\, when a\nmouthful of salsa se nt steam boiling out his ears. He won the Thomas McGann prize for the best book on Latin American history for ¡Que vivan los tamales! Food and th e Making of Mexican\nIdentity (1998)\, based on a dissertation complet ed at Texas Christian University in 1993. His other books include Food in World History (2006) and The Sausage Rebellion: Public\nHealth\ , Private Enterprise\, and Meat in Mexico City\, 1890-1917 (2006). His current research project\, to eat Mexican food in as many countries as pos sible\, provides the material for “Planet\nTaco.” DTSTART:20080125T030000Z DTEND:20080125T040000Z X-OSU-ADDRESS:875 SW 26th Street X-OSU-CITY:Corvallis X-OSU-CONTACT-DEPT:History Department X-OSU-CONTACT-EMAIL:elissa.curcio@oregonstate.edu X-OSU-CONTACT-PHONE:541-737-8560 X-OSU-COST:Free X-OSU-LOCATION:LaSells Stewart Center X-OSU-ROOM:C&E Auditorium X-OSU-STATE:OR X-OSU-SUBTITLE:"Planet Taco: The Globalization of Mexican Cuisine" LAST-MODIFIED:20071108T224158Z CREATED:20070712T193702Z DTSTAMP:20070712T193702Z CONTACT:Elissa Curcio END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:20080129T000000Z-16746@calendar.oregonstate.edu CLASS:PUBLIC SUMMARY:Soil Microbial Ecology: The World Beneath Our Feet DTSTART:20080129T000000Z DTEND:20080129T010000Z X-OSU-ADDRESS:2750 SW Campus Way X-OSU-CITY:Corvallis X-OSU-CONTACT-DEPT:Crop & Soil Science X-OSU-CONTACT-EMAIL:emmalie.goodwin@oregonstate.edu X-OSU-CONTACT-PHONE:737-5093 X-OSU-COST:Free X-OSU-LOCATION:Agricultural & Life Sciences X-OSU-ROOM:4000 X-OSU-STATE:OR X-OSU-SUBTITLE:Presenter: Dave Myrold LAST-MODIFIED:20080102T204358Z CREATED:20080102T204358Z DTSTAMP:20080102T204358Z CONTACT:Emmalie Goodwin END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:20080130T210000Z-17155@calendar.oregonstate.edu CLASS:PUBLIC SUMMARY:Meet the Geek DTSTART:20080130T210000Z DTEND:20080130T220000Z RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;UNTIL=20080326;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=WE;WKST=MO X-OSU-ADDRESS:3050 SW Campus Way X-OSU-CITY:Corvallis X-OSU-CONTACT-DEPT:Crop and Soil Science X-OSU-CONTACT-EMAIL:sara.griffith@oregonstate.edu X-OSU-CONTACT-PHONE:1 541 908 8737 X-OSU-LOCATION:Crop Science Building X-OSU-ROOM:150 X-OSU-STATE:OR LAST-MODIFIED:20080118T212024Z CREATED:20080118T212024Z DTSTAMP:20080118T212024Z CONTACT:Sara Monk END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
