CFS as food studies matchmaker? Yep! We’re putting together a book review and a memoir for your weekend reading pleasure…
https://doi.org/10.15353/cfs-rcea.v1i2.57

What are the true costs of an industrial food system? How can we get a better perspective by taking both an insider and outsider look at farming?

Try pairing Rita Hansen Sterne’s review of Farmageddon: The True Cost of Cheap Meat by (Philip Lymbery and Isabel Oakeshott) with poet and journalist Brian Brett’s Trauma Farm: A Rebel History of Rural Life.

While the former unpacks cheap meat, the latter takes us to small, mixed farm on Salt Spring Island (BC). But should you name an animal you are going to eat? Brett’s solution is to give them all interchangeable names, rather than assign one to each individual. His pigs go by Bacon, Eggs, and Toast.

Bonne lecture!

Ultra-right-wing client “journalist” rants about plastic bottle caps being tethered to the bottle. Because, obviously, reducing plastic pollution is some kind of communist plot.

"Promise you won't laugh, Del? But I thought if I got me best gear on & a splash of your Brut, I might be in with that posh sort #IsabelOakeshott." "Leave it out, Rodders!" "No, I'm serious, Del, she's on the look out for strivers who cook their own grub! That's me all over!"

Darling, I know you've been off work all day sitting on your fat arse, but that #IsabelOakeshott is coming over for dinner, so please send out for #Deliveroo, there's a sweetheart.
