‘All that is valuable will decay’
Anyone who wants to know more about cultures in the world has to start with food.
Food is deeply rooted in every culture. Any meal is a crossroads of rituals and traditions that connects people and separates cultures.
The FoodMuseum collects and presents everything to do with food in relation to culture. It tells the stories behind objects and traditions from different perspectives: historical, ethnographical and gastronomical.
Food turns out to be a unique entrance to cultural identity and diversity in the world, a country, a city or a neighbourhood.
Nothing is fixed and frozen in the FoodMuseum.
All that is valuable will decay.
The FoodMuseum initiates projects and produces analogue and digital exhibitions and books.

‘All that is valuable will decay’
Anyone who wants to know more about the cultures of this world has to start with food.
Food is deeply rooted in every culture. Any meal is a crossroads of rituals and traditions that connect people and seperate cultures.
The FoodMuseum collects and presents everything to do with food in relation to culture. It tells the stories behind objects and traditions from different perspectives: historical, ethnographical and gastronomical. From age-old Chinese traditions to part-time vergetarianism, from Dutch herring to Moroccan pastry, from edible clay to seacucumbers: food turns out to be a unique entrance to cultural identity and diversity within a country, a city or a neighbourhood.
The museum initiates projects, and produces book and exhibitions related to food and culture.
Nothing is fixed and frozen in the FoodMuseum. It grows organically, depending on chance encounters and whatever actuality throws at us.
