It’s Sunday morning—time to muss your frosted tips, throw on some cargo pants, and head out. You’re in a good mood today—Elton John’s new earworm is bopping in your headphones, you’re seeing Hocus Pocus tonight at the movies, and friends are coming over later for antipasti and focaccia, the “it” bread that’s on every menu these days. Is it… 1992? 2022? Who cares? Maybe Einstein was right when he said, “Time does not exist—we invented it.” The 1990s were pivotal to how we think about food today, and that’s what we’re exploring in this special online issue devoted to the recipes, trends, and people who defined the decade. So grab your Discman and start your engines—the ‘90s are back, baby. –Benjamin Kemper, Senior Editor |
