Not that I need to plug the great Mark Bittman, of How to Cook Everything and How to Cook Everything Vegetarian fame, but I recently stumbled upon his opinion column in the New York Times. I must admit, his writing really makes me think about things related to food, culture, and our beliefs about things that I often believe as “commonsense” (but that my anthropology teacher might call hegemony).
Here are two pieces that I recently read and enjoyed:
The piece “Some Animals Are More Equal Than Others” is great if you want to learn about animal cruelty and feel depressed but enlightened.
Check out the “Sustainable Farming Can Feed the World?” piece to learn about the ways that I wish I could change the world.
