This week – as part of the new Learn by Doing initiative– I took on J.B. Mackinnon's 100-mile diet challenge. James Mackinnon was last week's guest on the For Food's Sake podcast, Episode 4: The 100-Mile Diet.

In this episode, I reflect on my week long adventure of eating a truly local winter diet in Paris.

In the 15-minute mini podcast, you'll discover:

 

• The challenges of eating local: the setbacks, the frustrations…is it really practical for urban dwellers?

• The rewards of eating local: the wonderful people, the tastes… is it worth the effort after all?
• Tips & tricks of eating more sustainably: what can you do?
