Would filtered air ventilation or just plain ol' ventilation help any? Does your wife have difficulty with outside air? Frequently folks are dehumidifying to combat mold and mildew and having a lot of air flow keeps that down. The current trend towards air tight housing has made the mold and mildew outbreaks really impressive when they get started. If you can have the tradewinds blowing through the outbreaks of mold and mildew are much less and tradewinds are free. Saves the expense of buying and running equipment and is a much more "green" building technique.
De-humidifying a food prep area seems a huge task, one always thinks of sinks and water as an integral part of food preparation. Perhaps if only a part of the food prep required low humidity then a separate room could be set aside for it? De-humidifying an entire kitchen seems a most difficult route, IMHO.
