Abstract
This article explores how food is good to think mobilities with. Food, taste, and eating are all implicated in differing mobilities, whether corporeal, technological, imaginative, or virtual. The space of the dining car brings together the corporeal mobility of passengers, the technological mobility of the railways, and the mobility of food. Through the reflections of eating in the dining car by E. M. Forster and Roland Barthes, this article explores this particular experience of eating on the move, before examining how cultures of food and eating are central to experiences of “traveling-indwelling” and “dwelling-in-traveling” through the wider connections of food mobilities.
