Abstract

Moderna frysboxar har förändrat matförvaringen i Sverige. Baserad på ett tretton månader långt fältarbete i Arjeplog (Norrland/Sápmi), undersöker den här artikeln hur toppmatade frysboxar spelar en viktig roll i merän-mänskliga nätverk av mat, hållbarhet, och “det goda livet” i det lokala samhället. Det mesta av proteinet som lagrades i frysarna av deltagarna jagades eller plockades från det lokala landskapet, och deltagarna kände sig “rika och nöjda” med frysboxar fyllda av “naturlig” mat. Genom att utgå från teorier om nymaterialism och det mer-än-mänskliga, undersöker jag relationerna mellan älgen, frysboxen, skogen, och kroppen. Jag hävdar att frysboxen inte är ett statiskt föremål utan en levande aktör i dessa nätverk av det goda livet. Artikeln är ett empiriskt grundat bidrag till studier om frysning och landskapsrelationer i norra Sverige.
