Lately I've been thinking a lot of changes we made out of diets rich in meat and processed foods with fresh organic vegetables. Two women who paved the way for 42 years - almost old, if you were born after 1971 history.
This is the year of Frances Moore Lappe and Alice Waters appeared on the scene - with his book Lappé Diet for a Small Planet, and water, with its restaurant, Chez Panisse. These two visionaries have had a great impact on our thinking about health food today.
Politics is personal food
Heavy meat meal not long was common - and vehicles are not just plates. They were cooked dishes. That was before the book Lappé.
Lappe issue described in the Diet for a Small Planet is the fact that we grow enough food on this planet to feed everyone. But our production and distribution systems cause famine.
She also plans to base acceptable plants and public policy in the food understandable. The little time that I was an intern at the headquarters of San Francisco Bay Area Food First, which Lappé co-founder, I learned that nutrition is not just what you eat - it's how the food is grown and distributed.
So Diet for a Small Planet was selling like hotcakes in organic waters opened her restaurant Chez Panisse in Berkeley. Although it was many years before it became known beyond the Bay Area, the project of schoolchildren personal connection with edible food they eat now has branches across the country. The White House organic garden is a testament to their commitment (Waters first proposed in the 1990s).
Other evidence suggests changes in the right direction.
