- Kevin Folta responded to Food Babes nutty response to some University Food Science students who had written some poignant criticisms of her approach. Check it out! - C.H. The other day a group of food science students penned a letter to Vani Hari, criticizing her pseudo-scientific approach to food and health issues. It was a thoughtful, reasoned and appropriate letter. They were speaking from a basis of evidence and science. And instead of simply leaving it out in the internet, Hari actually responded. In typical Food Babe fashion, she approaches criticisms from actual emerging scholars with a the usual barrage of nonsense and holier-than-thou attitude. She actually tells these students that they are wrong on all counts. University students are pretty sharp, especially grad students like these folks appear to be. Their points are consistent with the scientific literature and the scientific consensus. Well done. Haris reply is the usual indictment of stuff she doesnt understand, and adherence to her beloved suite of fallacies. Ive parsed her arguments line-by-line, and as usual, she clearly just does not understand how science works, what safety means, and what the state of the literature is on crop production methods.
