After just seeing New York City Opera's production of Bernstein's "A Quiet Place", Caryn discusses how we need to take responsibility for our actions today and realize what their impact may be in the future. She connected the troubled family's story in the opera to decisions we all make regarding our food in our daily lives which can have devasting long term effects. In time for Thanksgiving, Caryn talked about being mindful of where our food comes from, going in detail about how a potato goes from the farm to our plates, comparing the agribusiness porcess to a local, organic farm. She also discussed the dangers of french fries and potato chips which contain high amounts of acrylamide.
