On today's episode, a conversation with Melissa L Jones, aka The Edible Activist. Back in the early 2000's, Melissa had an experience that changed her entire perspective on food and health. In her words, she realized she had been \"duped\" by the food system. This experience started her on a journey of understanding where her food comes from, how it is produced, who is involved in the food system, and how it is impacting her health, the health of her loved ones, and the health of the planet. It also sent her down a path that would lead her to create a podcast focused on the intersection of food and social justice- The Edible Activist Podcast. Melissa is an activist who is as passionate as she is informed, and she is a gifted interviewer and conversationalist. Her podcast has reached nearly 200 episodes, and she has interviewed farmers, food producers, business owners, and policy makers. In today's conversation, she shares about some of her favorite podcast episodes, how her journey began, why she is so passionate about bringing people of color into the food justice conversation, and how thinking about food more deeply has shaped her life.
