I see so many great food-related festivals and events going on in NYC throughout the year, but I believe I probably miss out on even more that I never hear about! So I thought it would be fun to put together a group to keep each other informed of events and hang out at them. For example, I just realized that I missed the Lobster Rumble a few weeks ago, but will be 100% attending the upcoming Bacon Bash and Cheesemonger Invitational! (as of 6/23/12) Please feel free to schedule events, and/or sen …

Here are the facts as discrete as possible (reference links on the bottom): We believe our everyday food is inefficient. Energy production/cost efficiency ---e.g. less than 1% of the consumed energy in production of beef is actually produces the final product) ---This also applies to most most farm plant foods. Time consumption ---It takes more than a year for one cow to mature for consumption. Social norms should be reevaluated. -- Anything can be eaten as long as its benefit/harm is scient …
