Propaganda creates reality. Foodiness exists because we continue to consider it real food. Erica is here to continue in her quest to destroy all things foodiness, and convince listeners that real food is real food - and nothing else. Tune in for an exploration into the stranglehold Hollywood and television has on our decision making when it comes to food, and find out how her appearance on Dr. Oz helped move things just so slightly in the direction of what's right. This program was sponsored by Cain Vineyard & Winery.
"You can't have art without enduring suffering." [7:30]
"The turnip growers of America aren't sponsoring shows like the "Biggest Loser" or "The Voice" - foodiness companies are." [11:30]
