Important information about the U.S food supply - Diana - 03-03-2012 This is a YouTube Ted Talk about the current state of the U.S. food supply. The speaker is a mother who has done extensive research into big business. Anybody that eats outside of their own gardens might want to watch this (especially in the U.S.). Description of the video below, pulled from YouTube: Quote:Robyn shares her personal story and how it inspired her current path as a "Real Food" evangelist. Grounded in a successful Wall Street career that was more interested in food as good business than good-for-you, this mother of four was shaken awake by the dangerous allergic reaction of one of her children to a "typical" breakfast. Her mission to unearth the cause revealed more about the food industry than she could stomach, and impelled her to share her findings with others. Informative and inspiring. v=rixyrCNVVGA RE: Important information about the U.S food supply - BrownEye - 03-03-2012 Isn't this a pharma/oil country? I know the plan is to send our manufacturing base out of the country. Been in the works for years. Thought you might like this as well.

This hit home for me very hard. I think the best way to reach people with this information about our food system is the same way she was reached: through their children. I would easily say that over 75% of my own customers are in the exact same boat. They learned the startling facts that this woman has so clearly put forward and thought about what that meant for their children's health. It's actually the only reason I am involved in food production the way that I am, because my mom had a very similar awakening as this woman when I was a small child and has since then been very proactive in figuring out the implications of what food is put into our bodies. I inherited a deep sense of care about food quality and purity from her and it is why I am a farmer today. She presents her points so eloquently...I wish every person in America would watch this. Thanks so much Diana. RE: Important information about the U.S food supply - Shemaya - 03-04-2012 I saw this a while back, it was so informative. I think I should watch again. Thanks for posting Diana. Austin, I love having a small garden in my yard, but haven't been really successful at growing food. Thank God we have professionals like you! I am thinking about raising chickens for eggs, and getting involved in the CSA again this year.
