Robyn O’Brien speaks at TEDxAustin about the underbelly of the genetically and chemically modified American food supply and how she became a “real food” evangelist. This is a situation that is always on the minds of us here at Ok! Here is the Situation and Robyn’s story is a powerful reminder of why we need to ask questions, shop smart and be mindful of which companies/farmers we support with our hard-earned dollars. Unfortunately, the small, organic farmer doesn’t follow the capitalist mindset or typical American “profits before people” business model, so it’s often a far more expensive, and sometimes a cost-prohibitive option. But – quite a few signs are pointing to it being worth the extra money in the long run, for your health and the health of your family.
