The Diverse Face of Food Day
Monday marked the first celebration of Food Day. Melissa Musiker’s earlier post provides a full background on the event. By some measures, including media pick-up, the event was a success. Coverage appeared on both wire services and in daily publications in most major media markets, including USA Today, NPR and Martketwire. Regular contributing bloggers were also a top source for coverage, with original content appearing in the Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post and the Huffington Post.

Blog Action Day 2011: We Are All Experts on Food
Today is Blog Action Day. 2250 bloggers from 100 countries have put their hands up to talk about food and take part in a global conversation. The next 24 hours will see a huge global conversation about food from many different perspectives and angles. When I started my career working as a clinical dietitian, someone gave me a great piece of advice that I think is particularly relevant to the theme of Blog Action Day 2011- always remember, everybody is an expert because everybody eats.
Like healthcare and education, food touches the lives of every person. Given all of this, it isn’t really all that surprising that the “farm to fork to physiology” policy debate is gaining so much attention and so many champions, often from unexpected sectors of society. Obesity rates are increasing and so are healthcare costs associated with chronic disease. We can’t afford to let either continue moving in that direction.
