The Perennial Plate: Thanking the Turkey
November 25, 2010Millions of Americans will sit down to eat turkey this week, but Daniel Klein of Grist decided to go the extra mile for his family's bird. He got a live turkey, and with the help of his family, killed, plucked, and prepared the bird for dinner. Having traveled with the turkey from farm to plate made his Thanksgiving extra meaningful--and turned his girlfriend into a vegetarian. Thanks to Grist.org for the video!Mark Bittman, Buckwheat Harvest and Thanking the Turkey
November 24, 2010"It's not about being pure or saintly, it's about moving in the right direction," says New York Times food writer Mark Bittman, author of The Food Matters Cookbook. Bittman considers himself a "less-meatarian," and says that while he loves meat, the best way to move toward sustainability and slowing climate change is for people to consume less meat. Meanwhile, eating plants and other natural, unprocessed foods is not only best for the environment--it's best for our health, too.Rev. Billy: First Amendment Karaoke
