polymorv is a food scientist’s take on grocery-store beauty built on industrial truths.

I started this writing about how we can bolster our food system for the future, and that framework still runs underneath everything I publish. Most of what shows up here lives in three rough lanes:

  1. how the global food system actually feeds us

  2. how groceries get made at scale

  3. how culture and identity shape what ends up on shelves in the first place.

I lean on my food science background to observe and disseminate, with attention to detail and links to the underlying research.

Sometimes I throw caution to the wind and write about what’s on my plate that week, where one of my favorite foods came from, or the particular joy of a simple meal with friends. Food and dining are serious to me, and a little fun with the material has yet to hurt anyone.

New posts typcally go up Tuesdays and/or Thursdays.

A few posts that give a sense of what to expect:

why pay for polymorv?

My intention is to keep the vast majority of my work free and I appreciate any paid subscriptions! I’m working on making perks that bring new ways to appreciate my content and build a community of folks that are interested in the topics I write about!
