Episode 44: Hippie Food

In today’s episode, Kate and Emma talk about how your favorite hippie foods got to your plate! We get into the history of the 1960s in the United States -- looking at the ways in which counterculture, anti-corporate attitudes, radicalism, student protest, etc. elevated food to symbolize both a political and moral choice. We discuss tofu, brown rice, Erewhon, Whole Foods, and the history of the macrobiotic diet. Kate and Emma close the show by reflecting on the ways in which “health food” has become more mainstream today.Kate Glavan -- instagram.com/kateglavan/Emma Roepke -- instagram.com/emma.roepke/Sea Moss Girlies -- instagram.com/seamossgirlies/ Sea Moss Life Community Platform on Geneva https://links.genevachat.com/invite/03fa1998-a28f-4cc1-8bae-95dec9ecf0e6 Use code SEAMOSSGIRLIES for 10% off your order with Joolies. joolies.comUse code SEAMOSSGIRLIES for 10% off your order from 26th and Love. https://26thandlove.com/?ref=NCDgKhQevc1xoUse code SEAMOSSGIRLIES for 15% off your order with Recess! https://takearecess.com/Learn more about your ad choices.
