I’m speaking with Fabio Parasecoli about his new book, Gastronativism: Food, Identity, Politics, at the Museum of the City of New York at a session chaired by Krishnendu Ray at 6:30 pm. Information is here and the ticketing link is here. This is a preview of the museum’s forthcoming exhibit, Food in New York: Bigger Than the Plate (opening September 16) and is co-presented by MOFAD (Museum of Food and Drink).

The New York Times does Food for Tomorrow
I attended the first day of the New York Times’ Food for Tomorrow conference at Stone Barns, worth the trip to hear Mark Bittman’s inspiring keynote. My summary: feeding the growing world’s population is not about increasing food production; it’s about ending poverty.
Fortunately, the Times is making videos of the sessions available online.
But never mind all that. Check out Bittman’s speech.
