Food network continues to keep their hands on the pulse of the public. It has included shows that appeal to those who love traditional soul food recipes. The growing demand for the southern comfort food continues to grow. As more people seek refuge from the hectic economy, social pressures and other modern demands, down home southern cooking is the answer for many.
Critics have complained of the lack of African American talent on the network in the past. Especially, considering as a percentage of population, more African Americans watch the network than any other racial group, according to network tracking data. The network has responded by including more talent directed toward southern cuisine - and even included a tribute to Black History Month this past February.
Now many applaud the networks response to the needs of its viewers. Soul food cooking in particular is still the favorite among African Americans. It's celebrated during family gatherings, holidays, birthdays, and other special occasions.
Because of the economy more people are cooking again, especially in the African American community. In addition, to support a healthier lifestyle home cooking is back in style. That's why you'll find more people going to the Food Network channel for the latest recipes, cooking techniques and celebrity chef humor.
