Culinary travel was officially recognized as a niche industry in 2001 with the
publication of a white paper, "Culinary Tourism: The Hidden Harvest." Since
then, the industry has experienced tremendous growth in both the quantity and
quality of products and experiences for food- and beverage loving-travelers.
