Do you eat alone, or with others? Is it by choice, or are your commensality options dictated by your social condition, your domestic situation, your access to shared space?

Elaine Power starts it off with her shared lunch: “A bowl of squash, parsnip and carrot soup, made from my last CSA veggie box of the year, with Aleppo chilies on top; a local Honeycrisp apple; and some Manchego cheese.”

But questions remain: what are they eating for lunch? And where do they dine? What are their preferences, aversions, or food habits when it comes to this midday meal? Will we see tried and tested fare? Or something aspirational?

While the former unpacks cheap meat, the latter takes us to small, mixed farm on Salt Spring Island (BC). But should you name an animal you are going to eat? Brett’s solution is to give them all interchangeable names, rather than assign one to each individual. His pigs go by Bacon, Eggs, and Toast.
