  abstract = {{T}hrough three {L}atin {A}merican examples, the paradigmatic notion of 'multi-sited ethnography" is put to the test in relation to food heritage. {A}fter recalling its cultural and historical antecedents in {E}urope and {L}atin {A}merica, a first set of tensions between 'institutionalized heritage and 'ordinary heritage are analyzed. {T}he phenomena of contestation ({B}olivia) that food heritage produces among the most modest populations shows that the wide range of its meanings and uses depend on the context and local issues. {C}onsequently, the potentially contentious relationships between various actors within heritage, gastronomic tourism, and development are highlighted. {F}or this purpose, the example of 'female traditional cooks and 'gastronomic routes' in {M}exico is used as a starting point. {T}hrough these examples, the advantages and limitations of the multi-sited approach and its implications for ethnographic work on food heritage are discussed. {S}pecifically, emphasis is put on the conditions of its implementation by revisiting how it differs from the comparative approach, transnationalization and 'glocal" analysis. {F}inally, some theoretical and methodological avenues for further exploration in the critical anthropology of food heritagization are suggested.},
