Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry
Bryant Terry, chef, food activist and author of Vegan Soul Kitchen, has offered his thoughts on getting people to eat better.
Terry describes the process as starting from the “visceral” and ending at the “political” level. This means appealing to people’s basic needs first by making sure the food on the plate is palatable.
“Visceral meaning that first gut reaction, where you’re sitting around the table and eating delicious food!” he said “We’re working towards good food at the table and ending the negative perceptions around healthy food and a plant-based diet.”
The last stop, of course, is at Capitol Hill.
“The ultimate goal is towards helping people organize to make policy changes. That means supporting small farmers who are doing things right, and not continuing to support the large-scale producers who damage the public health. And then actually following through with that [on a greater scale] by getting the populace to put pressure on the policymakers.”
