About this listen

How do you fix a food system that isn't simply broken but has been captured, top to bottom, in the name of profit?

  • Our food system isn't simply broken, it has been captured, top to bottom, in the name of profit. Austin Frerick shares the stories of seven agricultural titans, their rise to power, and the consequences for the rest of us.
  • For almost a decade, renowned Mexican chef Enrique Olvera veered away from serving tacos at Pujol, his Michelin-starred Mexico City restaurant. Now, he celebrates them with taco omakase at the bar.
  • Oaxacans claim if you eat chapulínes (grasshoppers), you will return to Oaxaca. Anthropologist Jeffrey H. Cohen looks at the consumption of these insects and the women who make a living selling them.
  • Travel and food writer Caroline Eden hiked between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, discovering recipes along the way.
