We are already eating less animal foods since a few years ago, but we are still eating 8-9 billion animals per year.

1 billion people in the world are chronically hungry. 1 billion people are overweight.

Your 'Pringle' contains 30% potato, that yoghurt has the same amount of sugar as ice cream, that whole grain cereal bar may be no better for you than a snickers.

This evidence is overwhelming at this point. You eat more plants, you eat less other stuff, you live longer.

I got into cooking out of self-defense.

Our demand for meat, dairy and refined carbohydrates - the world consumes one billion cans or bottles of Coke a day - our demand for these things, not our need, our want - drives us to consume way more calories than are good for us.

The USDA is not our ally here. We have to take matters into our own hands, not only by advocating for a better diet for everyone - and that's the hard part - but by improving our own. And that happens to be quite easy. Less meat, less junk, more plants.
