You know when you walk through the grocery store, you see all those labels on food? Free range, organic, no hormones, natural, local, humane, fair trade…. Ever stop and wonder.. what in the world do they ACTUALLY mean? Of course, as human beings we automatically assign meaning to everything - colors, images, words, and though we may think these label meanings are self explanatory, what actually stands behind them? Is it real science? Real for the lack of a better word - “goodness”, meaning these labels tell us that that product is actually healthier or better than the other.. or is it more complicated than that? I really wanted to find out so here we are. To help us sift through all these labels and misconceptions, we have best selling author, entrepreneur, cattle breeder and advocate for global agriculture Michele Payne joining us on the show today! --------------
