En hippare gourmet, så kan man kanske beskriva foodien. Kunniga smakkonnässörer förvisso, men Henrik Lagerlund tycker att de är mogna för filosofisk förädling. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.”It is like butter in your mouth”, säger Miles, spelad av Paul Giamatti, till flickvännen Maya i en scen från filmen Sideways från 2004. Han har efter ett besök på en välkänd restaurang blivit besatt av det japanska wagyuköttet. Wagyu kostar flera tusen kronor kilot och har blivit symbolen för exklusiv mat. Det förekommer ofta i tv-program och är populärt bland foodies.Ordet 'foodie' existerade inte före 1980. Det skall ha föreslagits av den amerikanske filosofen Gerald Dworkin för journalisten Paul Levy. Levy skrev sedan tillsammans med Ann Barr boken The Official Foodie Handbook och förde ut ordet till den breda allmänheten. En foodie för dem var någon som främst har en estetisk entusiasm för mat, någon som älskar och framför allt älskar att smaka på mat, men det har också kommit att bli associerat med en viss snobbighet. Någon som anser sig lite viktigare på grund av sin raffinerande syn på mat och dryck.I den bemärkelsen tycks ”foodie” föra tankarna till ett äldre ord: gourmet. Ordet fick stort genomslag med den gastronomiska klassikern Physiologie du goût (Smakens fysiologi), skriven av Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin 1825. Han var frustrerad över att en gourmet sågs som en frossare, och ville ge begreppet en ny laddning. Och med sin bok lyckas han faktiskt stöpa om det för en modern läsare. Nu förstods det som någon som har ”en etablerad, motiverad och passionerad preferens för objekt som smickrar smaken”. Det är en person med sinne för det förfinade och som också har ett förfinat sätt. Det är alltså inte helt olikt hur ordet foodie används idag. Kanske kan man säga att en foodie är ett lite hippare sätt att vara en gourmet.Brillat-Savarin ville som sagt frigöra ordet 'gourmet' från dess tidigare association med frosseri och det kan tyckas självklart att den som liknar en gastronomins konstkännare inte kan jämföras med någon som urskillningslöst svullar sig av alla tillgängliga läckerheter. Men att vi kan göra den åtskillnaden beror på att också begreppet frosseri har förändrats.Under medeltiden var frosseri nämligen aldrig bara en fråga om att äta stora mängder mat. På 500-talet skriver kyrkofadern och påven Gregorius I att den som frossar ibland äter för mycket, men främst för tidigt, för delikat, för dyrt och för girigt. Och enligt den katolska kyrkans främste filosof, Thomas av Aquino, är det som gör frosseri till en dödssynd att frossaren har satt maten och njutningen före Gud. Den har blivit ett mål i sig. Det måste man ändå säga att gourmén har gjort. Aquinos utförliga utläggning om frosseri inspirerade Dante i Den gudomliga komedin. Där hittar vi frossarna i den tredje kretsen av helvetet. Dante skriver att det faller ett tungt och evigt slagregn där. ”Hagel, snö och smutsigt vatten öser här ned igenom luftens mörker; den jord som tar emot allt detta stinker.” (sång IV, i Ingvar Björkesons översättning). Frossarna vaktas av Kerberos, den trehövdade hunden som i grekisk mytologi vaktade ingången till Hades. Givet hans konstanta hunger är han en lämplig vakthund. Syndarna krälar i leran som grisar medan Kerberos klöser deras ryggar. Deras begär kan aldrig släckas och deras sökande efter njutning fortsätter i leran och smutsen. Begäret efter mat gick före Gud i livet och förhindrar dem att nå högre i efterlivet. Nu får de kräla i gyttjan under ett oupphörligt regn istället för att dåsa bort på schäslongen i bekväma hus med varma brasor i den öppna spisen.Även Lev Tolstoj tyckte att det var något problematiskt med att sätta smaken som målsättning för ätandet. I boken Vad är konst? som skrevs på ryska 1897 men som först gavs ut på engelska, skriver han: ”att anse att målsättningen med konst är den njutning den ger oss är som att anta att målsättningen med mat är den njutning den ger oss när vi äter”. Det är ett antagande av ”människor med den lägsta av moralisk utveckling, det vill säga av vildar”. Meningen med mat är att ge oss näring och att tillfredsställa vår smak kan inte vara ändamålet, menar Tolstoj.Men, låter inte det lite väl asketiskt och ensidigt? Saker och ting, konst eller mat, behöver inte bara ha en mening, utan kan mycket väl ha fler än en. Är meningen med sex fortplantning? Är meningen med ett hus att få skydd eller är meningen med kläder att hålla oss varma? Det är en lite tråkig värld den ryske författaren föreställer sig när han säger att något bara kan ha ett ändamål.Men han har delvis rätt. Det finns något av dödssynden kvar i foodiens livsstil. Det har inte bara med att göra att det är osmakligt att spendera tusentals kronor på en wagyu-köttbit när pengarna istället kunde ha gått till måltider för hemlösa. Det är fullt möjligt att vara medveten om andra människors lidande och vilja ge pengar till olika hjälporganisationer samtidigt som man är en foodie. Istället är det den allt för stora betoningen på estetisk njutning som är problematisk. Det är inget fel med att utveckla sin smak och inte ens något fel med att det finns standard och rätt och fel vad gäller smak. Foodies brukar inte heller stanna vid njutningen och smakerna, intresset för matens kulturella och historiska aspekter ingår i paketet. Men en viktig aspekt av mat verkar vara eftersatt: moralen.Jag vill som Brillat-Savarins förändra synen på foodien, sätta en högre standard för vad som krävs. Vi kan kan kalla det en filosofisk foodie, en person för vilken tänkandet styr smaken. Någon har kommit fram till att hon måste se på sina matval på ett nytt sätt och ta ett djupare ansvar för dessa och hur de påverkar hennes eget liv och andras. En mer reflekterande matälskare.En filosofisk foodie är inte nödvändigtvis en gourmet i Brillat-Savarins bemärkelse. Hon kan vara, men viktigare är att hon går djupare och inte enbart ställer upp estetiska utan även moraliska principer för sina matval och sitt ätande.Maten vi äter och de matval vi gör i livet är personliga. Men det är varken insikts- eller ansvarsfullt att låta dessa styras enbart av smaken, vi bör också se till var maten kommer ifrån, vad vi faktiskt har på tallriken, hur det har odlats, slaktats eller fångats, vem som har odlat det eller plockat det och så vidare. Den kunskap som kommer av att veta vad god mat är och hur den tillagas måste i vår tid kompletteras med filosofisk reflektion. Man måste fråga sig både hur maten och foodien kommer till tallriken. Det håller inte att flyga runt världen och äta Fugu i Japan, fermenterad haj på Island och levande bläckfisk i Korea. Endast en filosofisk foodie är en verklig foodie.Henrik Lagerlundfilosof och författare

DescriptionHow Classical Music Takes Your Brain on a Symphony Adventure in 60 Seconds. Take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactClassical music offers many mind-bending pieces due to their complexity and emotional depth. Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring is famously intense, with its dissonant harmonies and primal rhythms causing a riot at its 1913 premiere. Bach's The Art of Fugu* is another, with its intricate counterpoint that challenges the mind. Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time, written in a WWII prison camp, blends complex rhythms and spiritual themes into a truly transcendent work.__________________________________________________________________About Steven, HostSteven is a Canadian composer & actor living in Toronto.

Le Poisson-lapin (Lagocephalus sceleratus) est aussi connu sous les noms de poisson-ballon, de poisson-coffre. Il appartient à la famille des Tetraodontidés, qui ont la particularité de se gonfler en avalant beaucoup d'eau quand ils ont peur. Il s'agit d'une espèce très répandue dans les zones tropicales et équatoriales des océans Indien et Pacifique. Ce poisson herbivore, placide et lent, vit près des fonds rocheux, proche du rivage. Avec le réchauffement climatique, toute la Méditerranée se réchauffe. Les eaux chaudes se déplacent et ouvrent des niches écologiques pour les espèces d'eaux chaudes. Plus d'une centaine de poissons tropicaux sont ainsi venus s'installer en Méditerranée, via le canal de Suez. Ce type de migration a reçu le nom de “migration lessepsienne”, du nom de Ferdinand de Lesseps, le concepteur du Canal de Suez.Le poisson lapin est l'un d'eux, et il détruit l'habitat et les ressources d'autres espèces, s'attaquant aux algues et aux herbiers. Il figure sur la Liste noire des espèces envahissantes dans le milieu marin de Méditerranée de l'UICN. Après avoir fréquenté les eaux côtières d'Israël, du sud de la Turquie, le Poisson-lapin est pêché pour la première fois à Lampedusa en Italie en 2013, puis en Bretagne en 2019.  Ce cousin du célèbre Fugu japonais (qui doit être préparé pendant des heures avant d'être mangé) est lui aussi un poisson toxique : certaines parties de ce poisson contiennent en effet une substance (la tétrodotoxine) qui provoque la paralysie respiratoire et cause des problèmes de circulation sanguine. Il y a eu des cas d'intoxication grave en Grèce et mortelles en Égypte et en Israël._______

Japan-born Soichi Kawabata brings 26 years of traditional and hyper-focused knife-wielding skills to South Yarra's Yakikami in its Wagyu Omakase offering. Growing up in Fukuako – a coastal city known for its seafood culture, Soichi spent his younger years on fishing trips with his father. Here, the pair would catch different types of fish and bring them back to the family to share, and create something special.  To respect and identify quality produce was something he was taught on these trips, igniting Soichi's love affair with cooking and confirming his destiny lay within the walls of a kitchen.   Soichi began his professional career under Mr Fukuuako where he spent the next five years building a strong and refined foundation of haute Japanese cuisine. The high standard of this position, along with his unwavering work ethic saw him quickly move up the ranks. Before leaving, Soichi obtained his certificate in Fugu – a sought-after licence allowing one to prepare and serve the Japanese delicacy, Fugu (pufferfish). Fascinated with the cultural identity of Australia, Soichi decided to widen his culinary journey and moved in 2005 where he found himself at Neil White's Pure South. Further advancing his techniques and learning what it took to create a full dining experience Soichi spent many years learning and familiarising himself with Australian produce and a new customer palette. Soichi has cemented himself as an expert in the Japanese culinary world with a passion and love for Japanese cuisine. With a focus on customer experience, guests can expect to learn expert tips during their Wagyu Omakase experience every time they sit at Soichi's counter.

Episode 129. This week we focus our spotlight on sake and stories from another prefecture: Yamaguchi!  Well known in Japan as the home to the poisonous but delicious Fugu (Japanese blowfish aka pufferfish), there are a number of outstanding breweries in the Prefecture. Located on the far western tip of Japan's main Honshu island, Yamaguchi is not close to Tokyo, but does have easy access to Hiroshima. To dip our toe into the wide world of Yamaguchi sake, we taste the stunning Gangi Mizunowa Junmai Ginjo. This expressive and fruity brew elegantly layers pineapple, mango and a whisper of floral notes to create a silky smooth and enjoyable aroma and flavor.  But does it pair with Fugu?  Listen in and discover a bit of what Yamaguchi sake has to offer. #sakerevolutionSupport the show

Midsummer? Classic... We've made it to the MLB All Star break and the Royals are in midsummer form: a year that was supposed mark a turning point in a half-decade rebuild instead points to another 100+ loss season. Special guest John Ingle of the Alien Minute podcast joins the show to share his insight as to why there is still a bright future for this organization-but they have to act now.    Episode highlights include: •The 2022 Season “I don't know what I expected” (14:31) •Is there any heat on the seat of Pitching Coach Cal Eldred? (27:40) •This Week in Craft Beer: John reviews “Fugu” from Tox Brewing Company (46:16) •The Royals' “Covid Ten”: how damaged is their trade value? (57:43) •What will be the fallout for Whit Merrifield after his comments about the team? (1:00:58) •Will the Royals be able to convince rising star Bobby Witt Jr to stay? (1:06:37) •How much longer until we reach another competitive season? (1:11:50)

Did you know pufferfish can't use their stomach for digestion because it's main purpose is to expand in a matter of seconds like a water balloon on a faucet? Pufferfish are the most poisonous vertebrate in the ocean. A single pufferfish contains enough neurotoxin to paralyze 100 people if eaten, but that doesn't stop the Japanese from enjoying their exotic "fugu" dinners. Tigersharks are immune to tetrodotoxin, but most predators are startled away when a pufferfish blows up in their mouth! I think the coolest animal facts about Pufferfish are their ability to change colors, mating rituals, underwater crop circles, and their "beak!" Here, the Pufferfish is explained in great detail. This video contains everything you need to know. Pufferfish live in fresh and saltwater environments all over the world, and they are divided into 2 families. One family has spikes and includes the porcupinefish, and the other family only has soft skin like my pet pea puffer!

NB: Pour retrouver les épisodes de PPDP, c'est désormais par ici.   Le Poisson-lapin (Lagocephalus sceleratus) est aussi connu sous les noms de poisson-ballon, de poisson-coffre. Il appartient à la famille des Tetraodontidés, qui ont la particularité de se gonfler en avalant beaucoup d'eau quand ils ont peur.   Il s'agit d'une espèce très répandue dans les zones tropicales et équatoriales des océans Indien et Pacifique. Ce poisson herbivore, placide et lent, vit près des fonds rocheux, proche du rivage.   Avec le réchauffement climatique, toute la Méditerranée se réchauffe. Les eaux chaudes se déplacent et ouvrent des niches écologiques pour les espèces d'eaux chaudes.   Plus d'une centaine de poissons tropicaux sont ainsi venus s'installer en Méditerranée, via le canal de Suez. Ce type de migration a reçu le nom de “migration lessepsienne”, du nom de Ferdinand de Lesseps, le concepteur du Canal de Suez.   Le poisson lapin est l'un d'eux et détruit l'habitat et les ressources d'autres espèces, s'attaquant aux algues et aux herbiers. Il figure sur la Liste noire des espèces envahissantes dans le milieu marin de Méditerranée de l'UICN.   Après avoir fréquenté les eaux côtières d'Israël, du sud de la Turquie,  le Poisson-lapin est pêché pour la première fois à Lampedusa en Italie en 2013, puis en Bretagne en 2019.    Ce cousin du célèbre Fugu japonais (qui doit être préparé pendant des heures avant d'être mangé) est lui-aussi un poisson toxique : certaines parties de ce poisson contiennent en effet une substance (la tétrodotoxine) qui provoque la paralysie respiratoire et cause des problèmes de circulation sanguine. Il y a eu des cas d'intoxication grave en Grèce et mortelles en Égypte et en Israël. _______

This week we take to the ocean so to live out everyone's childhood dream of becoming a marine biologist. But since to ocean is so big and there are too many animals and planet to learn about in 30 minutes we'll just focus on two fish: once from your nightmares and one from the movies.Stargazers are in fact a fish. The sneaky ninja ambush predators of the sea. With their large creepy eyes, wide gaping mouths and the ability to poison and/or you. Don't mess with this guy.Pufferfish, most of us have heard of. They are a fish that can get 3x their size. But why? And more importantly how? Learn about bones, and lack there off, learn about spines, poison and why maybe you should think twice before putting some tasty fugu into your mouth.Scientific namesAtlantic Stargazer: Uranoscopus scaberGiant Stargazer: Kathetostoma giganteumPorcupine Pufferfish: Didodon holocanthusTiger Pufferfish: Takifugu rubripesFollow the Podcast on Social Media!Instagram @wafpodcasttiktok @wafpodcastEmail: wafpodcastexplicit@gmail.comFacebook: "Weird Animal Facts: Explicit" Support the show (https://www.ko-fi.com/wafpodcast)

Mark spends a whole day in the house but digs deep for some weird content.

We continue a two part story about famed explorer, anthropologist, and ethnobotanist Wade Davis' 1982 expedition to Haiti to figure out what was in the mythical zombi powder. As the story progresses we realize that the real treasure is Davis' insight into Haitian culture and the Haitian Vodoun worldview.
