Who does the Culinary World Follow?


Who does the Culinary World Follow?




The culinary world is an incestuous field composed of its own heroes, villains, newbies, elders, and hidden talents.  In all fields there are certain individuals and companies that climb their way to the top or are pulled to the top.  Peering into the hub of the culinary world we learn a lot about each of these figures and companies and how their branches of relationships are influential.  These dominant figures may at times be in competition for book sales, customers, and readers, yet their entangled business and social lives reveal a respect for other professionals and elites within the field.  If you are looking to improve your skills in the kitchen, enter the culinary field yourself, or are generally more interested in learning about food and cooking, then the following twitter connections are worth checking out.  After each key figure below is a list of ten twitter accounts they follow that you may find useful.
