    Foodoir is a blend of food and memoir (= an account of someone’s personal experiences, usually written by the person themselves). Memoir dates back to the 15th century, deriving from French mémoire meaning ‘memory’. It bucks the conventional trend for blends in that one of the components is an obvious borrowing or loanword.
