is lighter, brighter, more artistic, art-directed food that comes from the intersection of health and aesthetics
(where of course "intersection" abbreviates "intersectionality"😏). So says Simon Doonan, according to QueerBio's page on "Popular Cookbook Authors Who Are LGBTQ".
QueerBio is a useful exhaustive / exhausting / inexhaustible source of LGBTQ biographical information. Its page on Simon Doonan himself however is remarkably skimpy. Indeed it omits mentioning his memoirs as the inspiring source of the delightful BBC Series Beautiful People (which unfortunately seems no longer to be available anywhere!?).
Wikipedia unsurprisingly is more informative as is (again unsurprisingly) Simon's own website.
P.S. Actually I got on to this quote from QueerBio.com's latest newsletter and wanted to highlight the unavailable (!?) BBC series. The real story however is The Atlantic's post of some years ago.
