Watched Fed Up last night at the FreshRealm office as part of our twice-a-month Wisdom Talks series. Holy moly it is definitely worth a watch. It reminded me of how ignorant I used to be. (I had a cupboard full of FAT FREE! products...and at one time drank only grape soda.) It gave me insight on how I stay relatively thin, even when I eat high quantities. (I binge on REAL food quite a bit.) And it renewed my passion for my work. 2 Years ago, I had a moment of profound frustration with the food system. I dont like to cook, I hate shopping, And while I love gardening - my attempts at growing food have been episodes of pest-destroyed frustration. I hope SOMEBODY is doing something about the food system, I remember thinking. That same week, I was contacted by FreshRealm, asking me to come on board as a co-founder. Were changing the way the food is distributed in this country...and we need you to lead our branding. It was like a sign from the universe. You want change? Make it. Be it. As always, the SOMEBODY was me. If you are not tuned-in to how profound the effect of processed food on our country (and the world) definitely watch Fed Up. Or if you just want to get deeper insight and examples to share with loved ones. Right now it is economics that drive how and what we eat. We desperately need to individually, culturally and politically shift the way we think about, produce, distribute, and consume food.
