EAT. DRINK. VOTE. Food Politics in America

In honor of World Food Day, I’m excited to share this interview with Marion Nestle, one of the nation’s most prominent voices on the political forces that drive our food choices, who has authored a new book, Eat Drink Vote – An Illustrated Guide to Food Politics. She teamed up with The Cartoonist Group (more than 50 leading cartoonist, including 9 Pultizer Prize winners) to illustrate and explain the most pressing issues of our food system today. In the book, she discusses Big Ag, GMO’s, food safety, labeling, obesity, school lunches, wasted food, and much more. Tune in here as we discuss the role that government – and politics – plays in determining what ends up on your plate.
