What’s Wrong with What We Eat

Sometimes, it’s easier to let what other people write help get your point across.  And sometimes, it’s worth taking just under 20 minutes to hear a little truth about the food we eat.  Mark Bittman, columnist for the New York Times, did a presentation at eg’07 entitled “What’s Wrong with What We Eat.”  Mark writes a food column for the NYT called “The Minimalist.”  He is far from being a vegetarian or a food wacko like me.  He is a man who is passionate about food and is using his platform to voice his concerns about the way humans are transforming the Earth, for better or for worse, in the name of factory-farming, from beef to corn.
