Don’t complain about being unable to afford high-quality local food when your grocery cart is full of beer, cigarettes, and People magazine.

Remember, machines don't forgive.

If it doesn't rot, it's not real food.

Food security is not in the supermarket. It's not in the government. It's not at the emergency services division. True food security is the historical normalcy of packing it in during the abundant times, building that in-house larder, and resting easy knowing that our little ones are not dependent on next week's farmers' market or the electronic cashiers at the supermarket.

The average person is still under the aberrant delusion that food should be somebody else's responsibility until I'm ready to eat it.

I think it's one of the most important battles for consumers to fight: the right to know what's in their food, and how it was grown.

Nobody walks well first, nobody writes well first and nobody cooks well first.
