Joseph de Berchoux (1760 – 1838) published this poem in 1801, and it was reprinted several times. He was the person who allegedly coined the word “gastronomy.” Priscilla Parkhurst Ferguson in her article, “A Cultural Field in the Making: Gastronomy in 19th-Century France” in the American Journal of Sociology (1998) describes the poem as “quite dreadful,” but the engravings are attractive.
