4 days ago
Food isn't just fuel. It's culture. Tradition. Fashion. And Big Business too. Whether exploring why undocumented immigrants feed America or how the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company of the 1870's is remarkably similar to Amazon of today this show is about that business. Wonder what working at Trader Joe's is like? Whether cage free eggs are really cage free? Whether marijuana legalization might change restaurants forever. Novices, geeks or industry pros love us. Cornucopia will open your eyes and maybe your mouths too. If not what you eat, what you talk about while you are eating.

Ep 23: Here in San Francisco: Poor Jack Dorsey and The Search for Meaning Through Food

In this episode we take a look at the anti-Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey and his unconventional approach to living.  His  lifestyle offers something to marvel at -- okay, laugh at too -- but  also provides an opportunity for self-reflection. In other words he's not the only buying stupid things. Though his are way, way, way more expensive than the things most of us buy to “improve" our lives.

One other thing. When we first wrote this episode we weren't going to dive into tech's impact on the city or Dorsey's vocal opposition to a small tax to aid programs for the homeless. But after several drafts we decided leaving it out was a bit like going to the oncologist's office just to read the magazines. In other words, some things are so important they can't ignored.
