Let's Get Real

This week on Let’s Get Real, Chef Erica Wides helps listeners virtually meet their meat. Hear about how she worked on a grass-fed lamb farm and learned the in and outs of natural animal processing and how much different the pasture raised animals are treated than the typical grain and corn fed industrial stuff. Find out why corn fed meat products don’t have the right balance of Omega3 and Omega6 and how things like paste soy and ammoniated beef product find their way into the commodity product. Today’s episode was brought to you by Heritage Foods USA’s No Goat Left Behind Project.

This week Let’s Get Real goes ripe for seasonality as Chef Erica Wides expounds on the disillusionment that foodiness has created: that seasonal items like strawberries are good and available all year round. Fighting this notion of faux-seasonality Erica will guide you to making smarter choices that that you don’t need to be an elite Brooklyn foodie to follow that allows you to fight foodiness at the same price for fast food. As the seasons change maybe it’s a good time to think about doing the same with your eating habits, so Let’s Get Real. This episode is sponsored by Whole Foods Market.

This week Let’s Get Real takes on the convenience of food, such as the redesign of the new ketchup packets for drive-thrus, and how that has resulted in the rise of ‘foodiness’. No longer having to forage, hunt, process, cook, smoke, etc. our own food has lead to our increased reliance on unhealthy “convenience food” argues Erica, but there are simple and easy ways to make the move to healthier options and there’s no need to do it cold turkey. So tune in to Let’s Get Real to find out how you can start making real, informed decision about what you eat. This episode is sponsored Wholefoods Market.
