Résumé : This chapter presents the 'follow-the-thing' methodology that was developed by human geography to investigate food products and practices. The aim is to trace the spatial trajectories of food products for the purpose of recounting their sociospatial biographies. This approach highlights the actors involved in the food circulation process and characterises their different roles. It also explores eaters' geographical imaginations, their representations regarding the origin of foods, and the impact of this knowledge on their relationship with these foods.
