Pollan-Mackey smackdown turns lovefest

Foodie kisses all around 1

We've got a pretty funny take over at Chews Wise on what went down at the Mackey-Pollan debate last night: It turned out to be more of a mutual love fest than a smackdown.

Hungry (and penniless) graduate students rubbed shoulders with well-heeled foodies, including superstar chef Alice Waters of Chez Panisse, nutritionist and best-selling author Marion Nestle, and Bill Niman, co-founder of Niman Ranch meats.

Of course you're wondering what there was to eat.

Aside from the foodie tidbits, the writer, Carmel Wroth, got to the core of what these guys were about. Read the full post here.
