America Celebrates Food Day

Americans from all walks of life are celebrating Food Day a nationwide grassroots mobilization that encourages Americans to eat healthy, delicious food grown in a sustainable & humane way & to advocate for smarter food policies. Spearheaded by the Center for Science in the Public Interest, Food Day is being observed in all fifty states with more than 2,000 events nationwide.

In the heart of Times Square, fifty notables from the food movement, including restaurateur Mario Batali, filmmaker Morgan Spurlock, Food Network host Ellie Krieger, nutritionist Marion Nestle, & several dozen area food activists staged an Eat Real Eat In. The group came together at a communal table, shared a healthy & sustainable meal (with most ingredients from the farmers market & recipes from Krieger's latest cookbook, Comfort Food Fix), & engaged in spirited conversation about the critical food policy issues facing the city & the nation.
