“They’re incredibly destructive—and highly edible.” Interesting read on how chefs & restaurants can deal with invasive species while not overfishing or serving up popular cuts.

This is extremely disturbing & we are far from over. Food workers should be first in line (w/ healthcare professionals) to receive the #CovidVaccine. These workers also deserve #hazardpay for putting themselves at risk so we can eat. #NYUFA20

Ok #NYUFA20 time to weigh in on another meat alternative #labgrownchicken. One study says it can be produced w/ 96% less greenhouse gases & 99% less land. However, the production cost for one burger is $35. Is this a step in the right direction?

Is the solution to #climatechange really a different burger? #NYUFA20 what are your thoughts? Will people be willing to switch? While having a meat alternative isn't inherently negative, viewing beef as the only climate problem misses the point.

As @ljharv98 notes 26 mill. people are experiencing #hunger in the US due to #COVID. Now is not the time to pull funding from orgs. that have been successfully feeding people, especially to swap w/ large corps like Sysco (who aren't struggling). #NYUFA20

Extremely happy @SouthernSmokeTX won $1mill last night! They've been working since 2015 to help industry folk face countless problems (#healthcare, #HurricaneSeason, #COVID). Proud to call Chris a former boss & see these issues in the spotlight!

Rather than continuing to debate #indoordining, shame people for eating out, or enact arbitrary closing hours we could simply pass the #RESTAURANTSAct that would allow closures, employee pay & give restaurants time until a vaccine is available. #NYUFA20

If the government refuses to help restaurants pay their workers to stay home, maybe they will consider paying them to feed the shocking numbers of 1 in 6 people (from Feeding America) facing #hunger due to #COVID. #NYUFA20

Gems from the faux article “It’s absolutely unthinkable that the governor would attend a gathering at an establishment that peaked 15 years ago. . . and for a completely prosaic and uninspired interpretation of Nova Scotia lobster galette, no less"
Extremely funny industry joke that perfectly highlights the real problem. We should be slamming the gov. for the lack of plan to help #restaurants pay employees & keep them safe. Restaurants are forced to rely on individuals to dine-in during a pandemic to keep afloat. #NYUFA20
This is what #overgrazing looks like in #WestTexas. Two different ranches that are simply across the highway from each other. One full of grass & diverse plants. The other no grass, lack of diversity, higher prevalence of Cholla cactus (which cows don't eat) #NYUFA20
Shame does not work to change behaviors and only creates additional problems. We must combat the systemic issues that contribute to unhealthy living for children & adults, like #FoodInsecurity#SystemicRacism and lack of #UniversalHealthcare. #NYUFA20

Children like adults don't respond to restrictions & shame, we all eat for pleasure & enjoyment not just calories. We need to come up with a holistic view of eating that teaches positives, exploration & happiness not just calories. #foodjustice#NYUFA20

This author argues the #foodsystem is not broken but instead functioning exactly as intended to bring us cheap food. We should advocate for #UniversalHealthCare, a #LivingWage, comprehensive immigration & be willing to pay more for our food.

A cool tool "Eating w/ a Conscience" from @ByondPesticides that allows you to pick specific fruits & veggies & see their impact on worker poisonings, pesticide tolerances, pollinator impacts & view health issues associated w/ specific chemicals. #NYUFA20

Is it odd that I immediately wanted this shirt? Unfortunately the price point is not one that will allow me to smell the shirts any time soon.

@maggastropoda Great list, I agree with all your demands! Biden should also immediately provide relief to restaurants workers through the @RestaurantsAct so they can get through a tough winter of #COVID spikes w/ indoor dining. #NYUFA20
