Re: Slow Food Fight
As Barbara Kingsolver writes in the June/July issue of Mother Earth News (http://www.motherearthnews.com/Livestock-and-Farming/2007 ...) if we were willing to spend what other nations spend --as a portion of income-- on food, "slow food" (healthier, fresher, more diverse, more local) would certainly be in reach for a majority of our population. By placing a national emphasis on shopping for the cheapest food we've contributed a lot to the class divide. After all, the people picking our food are the ones getting paid the lowest wages.
