Our Health & Corporate Responsibility

Posted on August 23rd, 2010 by by Annabel

Hey guys!
Have you ever met someone and felt an instantaneous connection, like you were kindred spirits? That’s exactly how I felt on Saturday when I met the gorgeous blogger behind “Eat, Move, Write,” Jasmine. Check out her re-cap of our meeting! Her talent with writing makes me disinclined to write my own re-cap lol [...]

Let’s Talk Local

Posted on August 21st, 2010 by by Annabel

Amended
Hey guys!
I’ve compiled some cool resources in the past couple of months relating to the “local food” movement and I wanted to share them with you and get your thoughts.
In general terms, the local food movement is an effort to build local “food communities” for both social-health and sustainability reasons. Basically, people want to become [...]

Weddings, Food & Compromise

Posted on August 10th, 2010 by by Annabel

Hey guys!
Whether you’ve had your own wedding, been to one, or even eschew the thought of marriage — you’ve got to at least have an opinion on how much one should compromise, if at all, when planning it.
There was an article in the Sunday New York Times centering around that very question of compromise and [...]

Eric Schlosser, Aldous Huxley & Food Safety

Posted on July 26th, 2010 by by Annabel

Hey guys!
You know I’m a huge supporter of all things Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser (co-producers of Food Inc.), so when Schlosser’s Op-Ed in the New York Times hit today, I was all over it like vegan cupcakes [full article here].
Schlosser’s piece focuses on the FDA Food Modernization Act — a bill that would give [...]

Pre-Chewed News

Posted on June 25th, 2010 by by Annabel

Hey guys! TGIF! Thanks for some very interesting feedback on yesterday’s post! I love respectful debates.
So, yea, there’s way too much going on in the food world for me to hog all the info. myself. If you’re following me on Twitter, I’m sure you’ve seen me mention a lot of this stuff. If you’re not [...]

In Defense of Omnivores

Posted on June 24th, 2010 by by Annabel

Are my boyfriend and I doomed to a tragic love-affair?

[photo cred]
Are we two star-crossed lovers, fated to have our disapproving families battle it out in the streets until our inevitable demise?
No freakin’ way — this isn’t the 1500s and our families aren’t into dueling. But it does seem like there are people in our respective [...]

Why “Organic” isn’t a Panacea

Posted on April 16th, 2010 by by Annabel

Revised
Panacea…a cure-all; or the Greek goddess of healing…is she embodied in the word “organic”?
(…I think you know my opinion based on the title of this post…lol)
I have to admit that somethin’ annoys me (well, what doesn’t, really? lol) and it’s that the word “organic” is thrown around like some sort of panacea that’s going to [...]

Why Veganism? Why Bother?

Posted on April 1st, 2010 by by Annabel

Hey guys! Ever since I decided to try out veganism at the end of December, I’ve fed my voracious appetite with research on animal rights, factory farming, ethics, and much more philosophy than I care to stomach. I realize saying I’m “trying out” something like veganism might seem insulting to those who revere it as [...]
