The mad rush for Fake Food and Fake Meat, ignorant of the diversity of our foods and food cultures, and the role of biodiversity in maintaining the our health, is a recipe for accelerating the destruction of the planet and our health.

The Ontology and Ecology of Food
Food is not a commodity, it is not “stuff” put together mechanically and artificially in labs and factories. Food is life.
Prof. Vandana Shiva
Food holds the contributions of all beings that make the food web, and it holds the potential of maintaining and regenerating the web of life.
Food also holds the potential for health and disease, depending on how it was grown and processed. Food is therefore the living currency of the web of life.
As an ancient Upanishad reminds us “Everything is food, everything is something else’s food. “
Good Food and Real Food are the basis of health.
Bad food, industrial food, fake food is the basis of disease.
