What is Culinary Travel?

Different niches in the trade claim it to their specialty, and even at Suite101 the topic has moved between different sections a few times. Have your say in our poll!

So, just what is Culinary Travel anyway? I was discussing this with a well-travelled friend a few days ago, and it set me thinking. Different sectors in the tourism business try to pull culinary travel towards their niche.

Even here at Suite101, the topic has moved to and fro between the Food & Drink and the Outdoor & Recreation sections a few times, confirming it's a fishy affair to label. So I've decided to start a poll and ask how you see it.

Here are five options (as many as the system allows) to choose from: do you associate Culinary Travel with Luxury Travel, Green Travel, Adventure Travel, Slow Travel or Educational Travel?
