CHOW recently presented a tribute to American cuisine past and antiquated mediums with The Last Kodachrome Christmas. The photo shoot is inspired by vintage food photography, and uses actual Kodachrome — a type of film long assumed extinct, but rather just in its late stage death throes.
Often associated with boring vacation slides and brilliantly oversaturated imagery, one might ask why CHOW would even use Kodachrome. Well, the answer can be summed up by a simple philosophy that we stick to here at Foodiggity… food ephemera kicks ass.
