An old friend dropped by the other day. She's changed a lot in the years. Led a very interesting life, with more than her share of challenges along the way.She just got back from a trip to Asia and the Middle-East. Her last trip was to Africa.
As we gathered in the kitchen to prepare a light lunch together, and mixed up a bunch of our mutual old-time favorite snacks, she said,
"You know, the food we eat is an ethical statement. What we eat, or don't eat. How it is packaged. Where our food comes from. Who grows it. How it is grown and prepared. These are all ethical statements."
Now, days later, I've had some time to contemplate what she said. It really made me think:
"Food is an ethical statement."
Is it? What do you think?
In the long run, would "eating ethically" really make your day lighter?
