When I read @jamieloftusHELP ‘s @grubstreet diet, I guffawed and vowed to read her book and invite her to be on “What You’re Eating.” The book is terrific, both interesting and laugh out loud funny. And she was a lovely podcast guest. foodprint.org/what-youre-eat…

“The more time I’ve spent around this industry, the more I’ve felt the whole project is fundamentally rooted in despair, an acknowledgment that real change, political change, was impossible..”

A young, hungry industry raked in billions to grow slaughter-free meat in giant tanks.
Could it fix our broken diets, repair a damaged planet, save us from ourselves?
I wrestled with that question for a year. For @nytopinion, here's what I learned.

Disclosing PFAS contamination to farmers and then failing to provide follow-up support isn’t just unfair — it’s unsafe.

"Last year, in an official statement, Amazon told CNBC that none of its returns are sent to landfills. All that really means is that Amazon itself doesn’t send anything to a landfill, but many returns obviously get there anyway" 😭newyorker.com/magazine/2023/…

In the latest episode of #WhatYoureEating, we talk with farmers Fred Stone and Adam Nordell about finding PFAS in their soil, animals and crops — the result of sewage sludge spread on their farms as fertilizer many years ago.

"It’s a common experience in consumerhood & in life itself, to imagine that how something is presented at least approximates its reality & to be disappointed to discover that it does not—that we’ve been hoodwinked...for the benefit of the seller." newyorker.com/magazine/2023/…

Last spring I headed to Maine, to hear about PFAS, or "forever chemicals" that have been found on farms across the state. This podcast episode is a result of those heartbreaking conversations. #pfas #foreverchemicals

In our new episode of #WhatYoureEating, we explore PFAS — the “forever chemicals” found in nonstick pans, food packaging & more. We headed to Maine, where PFAS have been discovered on many farms. What can it teach us about PFAS around the country?

Critical environmental, labor, and animal welfare laws exempt agriculture, and it’s led to widespread pollution, animal cruelty, and inhumane working conditions on farms. A lot of it has to do with the myths we tell ourselves about farming. vox.com/future-perfect/2023/…
