Robert Dirks, Emeritus Professor of Anthropology, has authored an ethnohistory?of food and drink in the Bloomington-Normal area. The book, titled Come & Get It! McDonaldization and the Disappearance of Local Food From a Central Illinois Community, chronicles changes in eating and drinking from pioneer days through the final years of the 20th century. The book is published by the McLean County Historical Society.
Dirks began his study of local food and drink as guest curator of the McLean County Museum of History?s popular Come & Get It! exhibit.?? The exhibit explores the eating habits, cooking equipment, methods and diverse food traditions of McLean residents since the early 1800s. You can investigate four kitchens, each representing a different era and illuminating how the kitchen has changed in the last 180 years, as well as, use hands-on activities to better understand where food has come from and how dramatically food sources have changed. The exhibit opened in 2009 and continues through January, 2012.? The Mclean County Museum of History is located at 200 North Main Street Bloomington, IL. The hours are Monday- Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
