SocraticGadfly: What ‘food crisis’?

May 17, 2008

What ‘food crisis’?

Food here in America wouldn’t cost so much, and there’d be more to feed the rest of the world, if 30 percent of U.S. food weren’t wasted. (That’s on top of all the Americans who overeat.)

And both of those aren’t to mention the overprocessing of many American foods. I’m reading Michael Pollan’s “In Defense of Food” right now, and this is so true.

Oh, also, if more Americans ate less food we wouldn’t have a food crisis either.
