Increasingly, literature has depicted food tourism as a powerful contributor to the ‘triple bottom line’ of economic, social, and environmental sustainability in rural communities (e.g. Sidali et al., 2015; Sims, 2009; Everret & Aitchson, 2008). When it is adeptly managed with proper knowledge, food tourism represents an alternative means of local development. It has the potential to strengthen a community’s identity, enhance appreciation of the environment, and encourage the regeneration of local heritage and the economy. Thus far, however, there has been limited research about the emerging role of university researchers in bolstering the food tourism industry.
