A FOOD CHAIN RELEASE FROM METROFARM.COM

Industrial agriculture has been taking the hits lately, with books like Omnivore’s Dilemma, Fast Food Nation and Appetite for Profit throwing the punches. This leads us to ask, “Can big food do the right thing?”
This Saturday at 9AM Pacific, the Food Chain with Michael Olson hosts Alex Avery from the Center for Global Food Issues and Michele Simon from the Center for Informed Choices for a conversation about the efficacy of large corporations.
Log on to listen on your radio, computer or IPOD
Topics include what relationship exists, if any, between large food corporations and obesity / diabetes; whether large corporations are capable of providing good food; and what alternatives exist, if any, to the corporate form of food business. Question of the Week: Can Big Food do the Right Thing?
