After catching a glimpse of the billions of dollars of good food that is tossed each year in North America, they pledge to quit grocery shopping cold turkey and survive only on foods that would otherwise be thrown away. In a nation where one in 10 people is food insecure, the images they capture of squandered groceries are both shocking and strangely compelling. But as Grant's addictive personality turns full tilt towards food rescue, the 'thrill of the find' has unexpected consequences. Featuring interviews with TED lecturer, author and activist Tristram Stuart and acclaimed author Jonathan Bloom, Just Eat It looks at our systemic obsession with expiry dates, perfect produce and portion sizes, and reveals the core of this seemingly insignificant issue that is having devastating consequences around the globe. Just Eat It brings farmers, retailers, inspiring organizations, and consumers to the table in a cinematic story that is equal parts education and delicious entertainment"--foodwastemovie.com.E.DVD.

"A powerful memoir about how one woman resurrects her life and career in the glamorous but sexist wine industry. Natalie MacLean, a bestselling wine writer, is shocked when her husband of twenty years, a high-powered CEO, demands a divorce. Then an online mob of rivals comes for her career. Wavering between despair and determination, she must fight for her son, rebuild her career, and salvage her self-worth using her superpowers: heart, humour, and an uncanny ability to pair wine and food. Natalie questions her insider role in the slick marketing that encourages women to drink too much while she battles the wine world's veiled misogyny. Facing the worst vintage of her life, she reconnects with the vineyards that once brought her joy, the friends who sustain her, and her own belief in second chances. This true coming-of-middle-age story is about transforming your life and finding love along the way."--

Billion dollar burger : inside big tech's race for the future of food / by Purdy, Chase,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The riveting story of the entrepreneurs and renegades fighting to bring lab-grown meat to the world. The trillion-dollar meat industry is one of our greatest environmental hazards; it pollutes more than all the world's fossil-fuel-powered cars. Global animal agriculture is responsible for deforestation, soil erosion, and more emissions than air travel, paper mills, and coal mining combined. It also, of course, depends on the slaughter of more than 60 billion animals per year, a number that is only increasing as the global appetite for meat swells. But a band of doctors, scientists, activists, and entrepreneurs have been racing to end animal agriculture as we know it, hoping to fulfill a dream of creating meat without ever having to kill an animal. In the laboratories of Silicon Valley companies, Dutch universities, and Israeli startups, visionaries are growing burgers and steaks from microscopic animal cells and inventing systems to do so at scale--allowing us to feed the world without slaughter and environmental devastation. Drawing from exclusive and unprecedented access to the main players, from polarizing activist-turned-tech CEO Josh Tetrick to lobbyists and regulators on both sides of the issue, Billion Dollar Burger follows the people fighting to upend our food system as they butt up against the entrenched interests fighting viciously to stop them. The stakes are monumentally high: cell-cultured meat is the best hope for sustainable food production, a key to fighting climate change, a gold mine for the companies that make it happen, and an existential threat for the farmers and meatpackers that make our meat today. Are we ready?"--

Super gut : reprogram your microbiome to restore health, lose weight, and turn back the clock / by Davis, William,1957-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Bestselling author of the Wheat Belly franchise brings his next big, game changing idea - the human microbiome and the silent epidemic of SIBO - to the mainstream. There have been other bestselling microbiome books and people think they understand it, but the research is constantly evolving and growing. Dr. Davis has connected the dots between "gut health" and many common, modern ailments and complaints that other books in this category have not, which gives this the potential to be the breakthrough microbiome book. For example, while we are one of the only mainstream publishers with a SIBO book coming out, most are independently published and most doctors are not yet familiar with the term. Dr. Davis is saying that 1 out of 3 people have SIBO, which causes a long list of health issues and illnesses; he sees it as a silent and profound epidemic created by the absence of microbial species that our ancestors had even 50-100 years ago and have been erased by the industrialization of food and medicine. Dr. Davis has also found that patients with dementia have fungi on their brain-SIFO-that has traveled upwards from the intestinal tract! Reprogramming the microbiome based on his research and techniques not only gets to the root of many diseases but also improves levels of oxytocin (the bonding/happy hormone), brain health, and promotes anti-aging and weight loss. He has also found that a small, hand-held device that attaches to your phone can help you measure/diagnose whether or not you have SIBO. All of this is new(s) and the book provides not just the science and case studies but also the recipes and solutions. In this book, he intends to help readers understand the science, diagnose it, eradicate it, and maintain their long term health"--
