As humans we all eat, it’s required to survive, however with continuing advancements in technology we find ourselves more disconnected from our food than ever before. The history, natural wonder, infrastructure, and people that make our survival possible are too often taken for granted. Foodseum aims to fix this, by providing a universally accessible and internationally celebrated location dedicated to helping visitors discover their passion for food. Through interactive exhibits, educational seminars, events and developmental programming, Foodseum will provide fun accessible basic food education, a window into simple preparations and exotic flavors, and most importantly the inspiration to continue to explore the wonderful world of food.
