你会如何看待街上移动着的买菜包?它们为主人“占据”了一块空间,携带着物品。它们装着在附近商店购买的食物和食材——这些选择反映了主人的饮食习惯,而这些习惯又受到地域文化的影响。

在伦敦西南区的猎鹰路(Falcon Road),一个典型的次级中心地带,聚集着众多英国连锁超市,如 Tesco、Sainsbury’s、Lidl、ASDA、Waitrose、M&S、Poundland 等。此外,还有几家由移民经营的超市。这个社区的人口构成极为多元,白人仅占约 40%。其他居民则来自许多来自非洲、亚洲和阿拉伯地区。有趣的是,在这样一个半移民社区中,来自不同地区的移民选择在这些连锁超市购物,尽管其中的商品是依照英国标准挑选的。选择相同食材的人们,往往会因其文化与族裔差异,而将这些食材用于完全不同的料理。

从某种意义上,买菜包可以被视为一个通道——从标准化的连锁超市通向各家各户多样化的厨房。作为外部世界与移民家庭之间的桥梁,买菜包可以被理解为食物景观中移动领地,街道上一条流动的路径。这正是本刊物正希望带给你这样的视角,以思考本地化、移民与食物之间的关系。

How would you see shopping bags move on the street?  They hold a space for the owner, and carry things with them.  It contains food and ingredients bought in nearby stores, which were chosen by owner's eating habits influenced by regional culture.

In the southwest London district of Falcon Road, a typical sub-center, various popular British chain supermarkets such as Tesco, Sainsbury's, Lidl, ASDA, Waitrose, M&S, Poundland are clustered around the train station.  Additionally, there are several supermarkets operated by immigrants.  The demographic composition of this neighborhood is remarkably diverse, with only 40% of the population being of white ethnicity.  Many individuals of African, Asian, and Arab descent reside here.

Interestingly, in such a semi-immigrant community, migrants from different regions choose to shop at these chain supermarkets, even though the products are selected based on British standards.  People who select the same ingredients often use them for entirely different recipes due to their cultural and ethnic differences.  The shopping bag can be seen as a passage from standardized chain supermarkets to the diverse kitchens of individual homes.

Acting as a bridge between the external world and the immigrant's home, the shopping bag can be seen as the moving territory of foodscape, a pathway on the streets.  And this is also what this zine hopes to bring to you—a perspective for reflecting on the localization, migrants, and food.
