Because only slow food can teach us the things that really matter - care, beauty, concentration, discernment, sensuality, all the best that humans are capable of, but only if we take the time to think about what we're eating.
Alice WatersI want every child in America to eat a nutritious, delicious, sustainably sourced school lunch for free.
Alice WatersGood food is a right, not a privilege. It brings children into a positive relationship with their health, community and environment.
Alice WatersWhen 85% of the kids in America don't have one meal with their family, just imagine what that means. Just imagine, life is like a run-on sentence, you never pause. You're always grabbing something. You're eating in front of the television. You're out grazing with your friends, and you're learning and digesting the values of the fast-food culture. And that's what I really believe is destroying this world. We've been indoctrinated from early childhood that more is better.
