N2 - This article outlines the role which changes in food production have played in the transition to the Anthropocene, focusing particularly on plantation agriculture and the impact of fossil fuels on agricultural practices. It argues that food is crucial in order to understand how the relationship between humans and the Earth has been transformed, and that a further transformation of the food system will be necessary in order for human and nonhuman life to flourish in the new geological epoch.
