Alice Waters, a well known California healthy food advocate appeared this evening on 60 minutes preaching her ideas about health food. She says eat fresh and slow. She has started the organic revolution and advocates for better food that can also turn to better health for the American people. Alice Waters thinks a veggie garden at the White House is a good idea. I agree. That will make our decision makers to think about policies that promote good health and eating habits.Alice Waters started her restaurant Chez Panisse in 1971. From the beginning, Alice and her partners tried to do things the way they would like them done at a dinner party at home. The restaurant, located downstairs, is open for dinner Monday through Saturday, by reservation only. Waters is an author of many recipes and cookbooks. Alice Waters cookbooks and recipes are very popular among those who like good food and subscribe to slow eating habits.
Waters is actually getting very good reviews. I love seeing Alice Waters this evening on 60 Minutes as she says "Good food is a right, not a privilege." Amen to that, as this looks to be a big night for Slow Food in the U.S.A. I read one man commenting that "inspired by Alice Waters on 60 Minutes, we are putting the microwave in the basement to see how we do without it."
