It is surprising the regularity gastronomical discussion leaves out speaking of the ergonomics of the dining space, with the addition of pottery, glass blowing etc.
How can one talk of the harmony of the salty anchovy and the creamy mozzarella without considering the use of earthenware stones that provide the pizza dough its specific heating/growing ground?
Would the famous Humus battles of North and South Israel would take place if it weren't for the Roman contribution to olive mills which extract the rich, spicy oil, which is central for the Humus' earthy aroma?
It may seem obscure to speak of these progressions, but these are the specific points in which cultures, distant or neighboring, differ.
For instance, in theology one should not delve into the mystical layers of the tem commandments but ask, "On what stone did g-d scribe the rules?" This issue may shed some light on contemporary issues. If it was Jerusalem stone, a white, soft rock, it is of possibility that the chosen people are not chosen, but have been selected in default, at the ninetieth minute, in haste, thus choosing this transient rock. In opposition stands flint, dark, hard and primordial, it must be the word of a powerful deity who can etch divine words into the most earthly of substances.
This is to reiterate the first rule of the fascistart manifesto. Grave issues should be treated lightly and light issues should be treated gravely.
Zen priests have been famous for using this philosophy. The fascistart aim is to pull out of it esoteric position and to use it as its telos. It is the dogma on which fascistart stands.
