Edible Book Day
Edible Book Day is celebrated on April 1. In 2000, Judith A. Hoffberg and Béatrice Coron started this event to commemorate the birthday of the famous gastronome Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, a French lawyer and politician, famous for his book “Physiologie du goût.”
Edible Book Day is an international event where edible books are created, presented, photographed, and consumed. The images and details of the event are usually uploaded to social media. The holiday gathers bibliophiles, gourmets, xenophiles, and the occasional bookworm.

Though it does not originate on server, Edible Book Day is an ideal holiday for all Renegade members to celebrate. Are we not fools, forever aspiring to push the boundaries of our craft, of reasonable behavior, of relationships between one's work and one's self? Have you not caught a glimpse of some supplies and felt even the briefest flash of the urge to consume? Is not our love of food our third most unifying factor? (Fic & Books of course tying for 1st place)
Join us in celebrating Edible Book Day and revelling in all things food & book in the days leading up to it!
Physiologie du goût
Physiologie du goût
“Physiologie du goût” (original French) can be found on Gutenberg.org. There’s fun illustrations and drop caps! There’s an English translation also on Gutenberg.org, but it lacks the graphics & pretty formatting. Is long– at least one print version of it is 443 pages. Certainly worth a skim, for example the fun section “APHORISMS OF THE PROFESSOR.”
