Tiivistelmä: | Once upon a time, selling health food was a radical challenge to corporate America. The 1960s counterculture believed that an organic diet would liberate citizens from the stranglehold of agribusiness and its toxic food chain , which soaked the land in chemicals, mistreated migrant farmworkers, and hooked the public on carcinogenic eating habits. Selling fresh, healthy food at cost, buying it in a neighborhood co-op or an outdoors farmers' market, and eating it with others: these were seen as political acts that evoked solidarity with farmworkers and a commitment to democratic change. |
