In the two weeks since the storm gutted Ms. Gomez's home on the eastern coast of Puerto Rico and ruined her dreams of renting rooms to tourists, Ms. Gomez said, her family has been surviving on canned food and boxed milk, paid for with the only cash they had on hand — her three children's private-school fees.

Some other notables: 1A: I took a trip to Moab, Utah, many years ago, and stayed with a friend who had rented a house from a family of survivalists, an early version of what we now call "doomsday preppers" — the basement was kitted out for Armageddon with drum-size cans of tuna fish and stacks of canned food.

The landmark political and cultural events over about 2,000 years are often accompanied by food happenings, like the Romans' planting vineyards in Gaul, Charlemagne's reorganizing agriculture, the possibly mythic story of the Black Prince's siege of Castelnaudary which inspired cassoulet, the invention of canned food to feed Napoleon's armies or the true tale of the origin of the cheese brand La Vache qui rit (Laughing Cow) as an insult to the Germans in World War I. The book is at once serious and trivial.
