Christina Ward

Christina is a contributor to Serious Eats and The Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel, and other publications. She is a featured guest food expert on Fox6 News Real Milwaukee and on public radio stations across the United States. She is the author of American Advertising Cookbooks-How Corporations Taught Us to Love Spam, Bananas, and Jell-O (Process, 2019) and Preservation-The Art and Science of Canning, Fermentation and Dehydration(Process, 2017). Christina, despite klutziness, is often found in classrooms and community kitchens with sharp knives, spilling vinegar into unsuspecting handbags while wildly gesticulating as she teaches folks how to make perfect pickles. Christina can trace her Wisconsin roots to the early 1800s. She prides herself on having a hungry mind interested in learning about people, the foods they eat, and the stories that arise from that convergence.
