In the 18th century, the Canadians had better diets than did the French; The Let’s Eat! exhibition explores the different facets of Quebec’s culinary culture, from the arrival of the first colonists to the modern day. The exhibition will present the kinds of foods that were eaten, but will also show food preservation methods, meal preparation, the influence of agricultural techniques on food, the import⁄export network, and general traditions concerning dining.
