The Industrial Food System
In the early 1970âs US president Richard Nixon enacted two changes that would have striking impact on future generations: Removed the US from the gold standard. This would herald the end of sound, long term economic development, and shift the whole world into a debt based system of fiat currency. Enacted an aggressive program of… Continue Reading

Keeping with the theme of “Are We Really Eating Too Much Meat?” I’m going to look now at how protein Americans are eating,… Continue Reading
How Much Protein Do We Really Need?
Every time I watch a documentary on global warming, the idea of cutting down on energy consumption seems to get completely glossed over and the take away is: EAT LESS MEAT. I also hear this from the health community. When I was in school to become a dietitian, the constant message was that people are EATING WAY… Continue Reading
10 Charts to Show You Why You Probably Do Have the Time and Money to Eat Real Food
Sometimes, Robb likes to remind me that I can come off as, well… not the most warm and nurturing person in the world. I admit that my passion (and sensitivity) can sometimes come off as unsympathetic, but it’s only because I actually really give a shit about things. Maybe being a nutritionist was the wrong… Continue Reading
