High-quality food is better for your health.

People in Slow Food understand that food is an environmental issue.

Every major food company now has an organic division. There's more capital going into organic agriculture than ever before.

My work has also motivated me to put a lot of time into seeking out good food and to spend more money on it.

In addition to contributing to erosion, pollution, food poisoning, and the dead zone, corn requires huge amounts of fossil fuel - it takes a half gallon of fossil fuel to produce a bushel of corn.
