My New Class on Intentional Eating

Dear friends and readers,

I remember well the shock of coming across a cattle feedlot for the first time. I could smell it for miles before I encountered cows standing ankle-deep in their manure. I realized at that moment I didn’t really know where my food comes from. I was determined to find out where all our food comes from and figure out how we can all make better choices.

I spent years researching food chains that feed us, as well as agriculture, nutrition, and cooking. Now, I’m sharing everything I’ve learned about the system—and how you can see through the marketing lies to make better choices— in my new class, streaming beginning today on MasterClass.

To be clear, this class is not about restrictions or diets—it’s about long-term sustainability. You should eat whatever you want and eat for pleasure. The only rule is this: Don’t eat in ignorance.

We’ll talk about the past, present, and future of meat, from the ways animals and humans are treated in meat processing plants to emerging meat alternatives. We’ll also cover the four main food chains; the perils of the Western diet; and how to grow your own food, even if you only have a windowsill.

I want to help you rethink your relationship with food and how eating helps make you who you are. Are you eating from an unhealthy industrial system, or are you eating from a sustainable food chain that supports the environment and everyone involved? 

Eating is your chance to vote for your values three times a day. You can and should make decisions that help create the world you want to see.

Let’s dig in together. Enroll in my class on MasterClass here, and learn more about my books I discuss in the class here. 

And do let me know what you think.

Yours,
