Description

This week on Lets Get Real, Erica Occupies Big Food with special guest, food journalist and nutritionist Kristin Wartman. Tune in as they discuss everything from the problems with corporations that control our food supply to Rush Limbaughs recent attack on food justice fighter and author Tracie McMillan. Learn more about the problems we face as a nation when it comes to what were eating and find out what Erica and Kristin think we can do to reverse the tide. This program was sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards and Sons. A healthy food system is at the root of a healthy democracy. When we have a handful of corporations controlling what we eat, its a real threat to our democracy. 1/4th of all groceries bought in this country are bought at Walmart. --Kristin Wartman on Lets Get Real

On Let’s Get Real Chef Erica Wides walks you down the aisles of the surreal world of food, serving up a heaping dose of reality by separating the food from the foodiness so you can forage, hunt, gather, trap and fish for real food anywhere, even in a foodiness-filled mega market. Incisive, pragmatic, sarcastic, and an unrepentant know-it-all when it comes to anything food, on Let’s Get Real Chef Erica Wides does the job for you of sifting out everything that’s fake in the world of food – from “foodiness” marketing and cooking show shams to “health-halo green-washing” and annoying whole-food righteousness – so you never unknowingly chow down on carpeting again.
