Restaurants Soul food, not
Posted by Cliff Bostock @cliffbostock on Sun, Aug 23, 2009 at 2:18 AM
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, who grew up on a family farm, writes about the way factory farming drains our food of soul:
[The] diverse, chaotic family farm is now disappearing, replaced by insipid food assembly lines.The result is food that also lacks soul — but may contain pathogens. In the last two months, there have been two major recalls of ground beef because of possible contamination with drug-resistant salmonella. When factory farms routinely fill animals with antibiotics, the result is superbugs that resist antibiotics.
