Meatless Mouthful–Anthony Bourdain Says Scare People Into Eating Better
Written by Vegetarian Star on September 9th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Meatless Mouthful.
“Personally, I don’t think the “war” against fast food chains can be won on the facts. I think you win it the way elections are too often won: through appealing to the most base fears and prejudices of the lowest common denominator — through propaganda, through scaring the hell out of people. It worked for Bush. It might work for food advocates.”
–Anthony Bourdain, during an interview with CBC News. There’s nothing scarier than polluted waters from factory farm manure runoff and increased risk of heart attack and cancer. Vegetarian and environmental advocates have been trying to scare the chicken wings out of people’s hands for awhile. Any ideas why it’s taking so long to make change?
