I didn’t know about this, I just found it on Serious Eats . Here is Michael Pollan, author of “In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto” and “Omnivore’s Dilemma” being interviewed:
Here’s part of the interview:
Nightline correspondent, John Donovan: “You think the average person can afford to eat well, eat food, as opposed to…”
Michael Pollan: “You know, it’s a problem. Real food cost more than edible food like substances by and large. You can do it but it will either — if you don’t have the money you’re gonna have to put more time. I think we need to begin to spend more on food in terms of money and time. I know that’s not a popular message. People like their convenience food, but this experiment about outsourcing our food preparation to the corporations has failed us. It’s left us really unhealthy, really unsatisfied, and I think it’s undermining family life and community.”





Thank you for this link – Michael Pollan’s writing is one of my greatest inspirations for changing my relationship with food.
I didn’t see this news piece, so thank you again!
