The focus is on food sharing and food offering, across different affectional bonds, from family to friends to romance, and how this is affected by attachment styles and behaviours.

The research findings are interwoven with anecdotes from the author's own Greek Cypriot heritage, where food sharing is synonymous with the cuisine; in many ways this piece could be considered a love letter to meze.
