And another post about food.

A happy cow does taste yummy!
I just found a really good 20 minute TED talk from Mark Bittman about “What’s wrong with what we eat”. It was pretty boring the first couple of minutes and I almost switched away, but then it turned into a really impressive presentation about food and how we eat. It also covers the meaning of organic food, and that by our current definition it isn’t really that much organic. Worth watching.
Another interesting talk is this 5 minute presentation from Dean Ornish about “Genes are not our fate”. He’s talking about how healthy food has an impact on body and mind, even on a genetic level.
As I mentioned before, you go better with buying your food at the farmers market or at smaller independent stores, from which you know they get their supplies from the local area, rather than shopping in big super market chains, even if they pretend to be “natural” or “organic”.
