Season 1 Episode 25
The podcast "Spill the Tea with D and E" focuses on reclaiming food as medicine. Dominique Hackett and Erica Salda discuss creating a community-driven food system that prioritizes health, particularly for children. They advocate for farm-to-table initiatives, local organic farming, and eliminating processed foods from schools and communities.
Key themes include:
- Reducing chronic illness through nutrition
- Supporting local farmers and community gardens
- Eliminating corporate influence in food systems
- Promoting fresh, organic, and locally-sourced food
- Addressing food apartheid and health inequities
The hosts envision a future where communities grow their own food, children learn about nutrition, and healthcare shifts from treating symptoms to preventing illness through proper nutrition. They emphasize the importance of community involvement and systemic change in creating a healthier food ecosystem.
