Back to food

Did you know it's Fairtrade Fortnight? I found out at work, because the students were promoting Fairtrade sweatshirts and had a stand with food on showing that - for example - in one cookie ingredients came from five different countries.

Check out http://www.fairtrade.org.uk/get_involved/fairtrade_fortnight/default.aspx - find out about Fair Trade food and why, more than ever, we should look at what we eat not just for the goodness (or, as in most of my favourite foods, badness) but for the environmental and social effect the whole chain of events has.
