What we eat has changed more in the last 40 years than in the previous 40,000. The survival of the current food system depends upon widespread ignorance of how it really operates.

Most fast food is fried. Fried food tastes great, and people dont seem to care about the fat aspect.

Fast food is inexpensive, convenient, and it tastes good. I'm all in favor of that. My problem is how heavily processed it is - how full of salt, fat, and sugar it is.

Fast food is popular because it's convenient, it's cheap, and it tastes good. But the real cost of eating fast food never appears on the menu.

A public outcry usually masks a private obsession.

The United States now has more prison inmates than full-time farmers.

Different people, in good faith, can look at the same fact and interpret it differently. But thats where an interesting conversation begins.
