Big Food is a Big Problem
BY URBANREMEDY
(...)
I recently talked with our CEO, Paul Coletta, to get a deeper understanding of what “Big Food” is, the problems it is causing, and what one small food company, one family, or even an individual can do to make a difference.
(...)
“We are willing, and thankfully able, to spend a little more for higher quality food. Big food is often cheap because the processed packaged food industry is enormously efficient and our government has a long history of subsidies that do not favor the fruit and vegetable industry. While quality food can be more expensive, I believe it is worth it. Let’s pay the farmer, not the pharmacist.”
