Eating To Extinction
We’re joined by renowned food journalist, author, and broadcaster Dan Saladino, who's been a host on the BBC’s Radio 4 show The Food Programme for almost 20 years. Recently, he published Eating to Extinction, which explores humankind’s relationship with food, including the world’s most uncommon bites and the communities that produce them—from rare cider apples on the brink of extinction to the vanishing Old Cornish cauliflower, and a variety of Indigenous plant-based edibles from around the world that many have never experienced. Together we’ll look at how stories of endangered plant cuisines have inspired Saladino throughout his career, and discuss the future of food security—and how the preservation of these endangered eats is integral to the health of our planet and humanity at large.
