Stinky Lunch Kids Strike Back:

The Story of American Food

Stinky Lunch Kids Strike Back is a multifaceted media platform founded in 2026 by award-winning journalist and classically trained chef Pervaiz Shallwani.

It serves as a living archive of the evolving and multifaceted American flavor, with a belief that a big part of the conversation is that American food is immigrant food.

People arrive here and they take what they know, take what they find and create something new. That something new is American food.
