Food Issues of Contemporary Society

This is the online forum of "Food Issues," a tool that we hope will stimulate class discussion and house our small intellectual community. It will be only as fruitful as we make it...so post with abandon.

September 20, 2006


After our food shopping-related conversations of the last two weeks, make sure to check out this week's New York Times' dining section. In addition to the graphic above (representing a dream supermarket), they have two articles on supermarkets. Marian Burros also wrote a blurb on locally grown spinach, in reaction to the e-coli scare. http://www.nytimes.com/pages/dining/index.html

Have the readings you've done for class and the discussions that ensued affected your perspective when you now read articles such as these? This isn't a quizz, I'm just curious to see what you think!

    The readings from class have further affected the way I look at what I eat, what I buy, and the things I read in articles. I search much more for the bias and think about a possible opposing view. While, before this class...I didn't really judge food articles as I do now.
