The question is: why are there markets of food at all?

When you introduce markets in food, then you introduce two very simple rules. The first rule is this: if you have money you can get the food from wherever around the world. The other rule markets impose is this: if you do not have money, you will starve. This is an important point ... The reason why people starve is because of poverty ... not because of a shortage of food ... but because the only way to access the food is through the market.

Question:The government said eating genetically modified food(GM food) would not cause any harm, at the same time imposing strict ban of GM food inside Expo area, just to prevent those innocent foreigner's consumption by mistake, is this a kind of prejudice against ourselves?

Anything having to do with food is pleasurable for me. Any conversation about food, review of food, story of food, picture of food, thought of food...

The Republican Party has been captured by a bunch of extremists … People who maintain that markets will take care of everything, that you leave it to the markets and the markets know best. Therefore, you need no government, no interference with business. Let everybody pursue his own interests. And that will serve the common interest. Now, there is a good foundation for this. But it's a half-truth.

Bad food is made without pride, by cooks who have no pride, and no love. Bad food is made by chefs who are indifferent, or who are trying to be everything to everybody, who are trying to please everyone ... Bad food is fake food ... food that shows fear and lack of confidence in people’s ability to discern or to make decisions about their lives. Food that’s too safe, too pasteurized, too healthy – it’s bad! There should be some risk, like unpasteurized cheese. Food is about rot, and decay, and fermentation….as much as it is also about freshness.
