Chipotle and Polyface farms Partner for Pork

I’m currently in the middle of reading the Omnivore’s Dilemma and learning all about Polyface Farms and really loving their goals and the way they run their business. Then, I check my feed reader and see several new stories pop up - from the titles alone I was pretty excited:

Wow. That’s a lot of great coverage for the new partnership (and both companies and their goals) including the obvious major coverage from the Washington Post. I won’t repeat the news that’s been posted by these folks other than to say if you like Chipotle for their Food With Integrity program, this seems like yet another great step down that road.

Now…to see about visiting that Chipotle location so that I can compare the carnitas at that location to the recipe I’m used to from the rest of the stores.

Food with Integrity Reading List (Media List)

A thought in the back of my mind is the concept of a Food with Integrity reading list. On their Food with Integrity page you can see they recommend the Omnivore’s Dilemma and also Fast Food Nation. Perhaps, if reading can be expanded to “media” I would also recommend Super Size Me which is a DVD. I’m curious if anyone has other recommendations for books that fit in this same line of thought and research.

All I have to say is (From Pollan’s latest, “In Defense of Food”…

  1. Eat Food (Food Like your Great-Great Grandmother would recognize - Do butrritos count?).
  2. Not too much (That’s my biggest problem)!
  3. Mostly Plants (No arguments there, except carnitas are Soooooo Goooood)!!!

Interesting to hear the thoughts from a site focused on environment and spirituality.
