I've seen 'The Past, The Present, The Future of Food'...Webcast Tonight with Michael Pollan and John Mackey

February 27, 2007 by serge the concierge

Stopping by for a quick visit to Becks and Posh, I found out about The Past, The Present, The Future of Food.

This Live Event and Webcast takes place tonight from 7:00 to 9:00 pm (Pacific Time).
The Live Event at Zellerbach Auditorium of UC Berkeley is sold out.
It will start with a multimedia presentation on the topic by John Mackey (CEO of Whole Foods) who will then be joined by Michael Pollan to continue the exchange they started after the author's publication of The Omnivore's Dilemma.

Visit this page for more details on the Webcast.

The Observer Food Monthly offered its own take on The Future of Food late last year.
The introduction "Imagine a world where liquid nitrogen is a kitchen must have and your food gets cooked in a vacuum sealed bag..." sets the stage.

My guess is that tonight's presentation will be more down to earth or less futuristic if you prefer.
