I agree w Holmes & Farmer re pragmatic solidarity having a place. Would Guthman view this as credible way for change? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@dilhorne bottomline issue!-much labor is required! cheap labor in form of intern, volunteer, worker that pays for 'experience' #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@EGleichert @__olives agreed. 'legal' & 'illegal' aliens..how are implications for legal alien different? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@SarahFellbaum Could have value for those of us UScitizens in helping to articulate thoughts we can relate to as being UScitizens #fooanth

@craigcordi @EGleichert @jacokesm @CourtWeber How would anthroplgst who worked as migrant have a dif perspective and be credible? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@SarahFellbaum @kathrynlcurtis arguments both ways! doyou think action in individual choice can lead to more ind. action in policy?#foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@SarahFellbaum we have control over it; tangible & understandable; we don't always understand & see affects of "bad" current policy#foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

do you agree that alt food produces self-satisfied people who believe their personal consuming is "enough"? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@CourtWeber agreed-I think many examples point to truth that living place affects obesity. Maybe JG didn't want to take that step? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@SarahFellbaum Many interesting thoughts in this book: http://t.co/DetMTrZEyt #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

those of you with an environmental background...what do you think of JG's comparison of env degradation crisis to obesity crisis? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@Iz_Morrison person's very form is seen as unwell, much blame on individual for "catching" disease, fix is in "fighting" disease.. #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@dilhorne @craigcordi I think JG is getting at the problematic framing/labeling of obesity as disease--what does "disease" connote?#foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@__olives @nestorovskaash although part of her work disagrees with the focus on the consumer, which Pollan very much does #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

what might "artisinal"-type cheese and other foods resemble if they were produced in order to "feed the world" (p216)? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@craigcordi @jacokesm @EGleichert p155 variation (consistency) from nature is acceptable/desired, variation from poor work is not

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@craigcordi @Iz_Morrison no real nature implies humans are completely set apart from nature, and our presence makes it unnatural #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

some cheese artisans (science background esp) don't see their work as art p157..does this matter for classifying it as "artisan"? #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@SarahFellbaum @dilhorne @k_white615 I think Paxson does fairly well explaining differences between standardization & consistency #foodanth

[Samantha Miller @samleighmill]

@jacokesm @Iz_Morrison seems to still be elements of dominating nature, even in early stage of managing births for milk production #foodanth
