Description

Erica Wides is back for a brand new episode of Lets Get Real with her good friend Kristin Wartman; Lets Get Reals resident nutrition guru and food policy wonk! She has her own little office down here in the ‪#‎Foodiness‬ Fallout Shelter, where she sits and works on her forthcoming book Formerly Known as Food, and then her and Erica hang out and eat grass-fed burgers. Today they are discussing the new ‪#‎USDA‬ food guide ‪#‎MyPlate‬ recommendations. The idea we can eat 12 tablesoppons of sugar a day and be healthy is ridiculous. [11:00] When we have high levels of insulin circulating in the body, it affects the brain. [26:00]

On Let’s Get Real Chef Erica Wides walks you down the aisles of the surreal world of food, serving up a heaping dose of reality by separating the food from the foodiness so you can forage, hunt, gather, trap and fish for real food anywhere, even in a foodiness-filled mega market. Incisive, pragmatic, sarcastic, and an unrepentant know-it-all when it comes to anything food, on Let’s Get Real Chef Erica Wides does the job for you of sifting out everything that’s fake in the world of food – from “foodiness” marketing and cooking show shams to “health-halo green-washing” and annoying whole-food righteousness – so you never unknowingly chow down on carpeting again.
