Former New York Times food writer Mark Bittman will be speaking on “The Future of Food” in the Architecture Auditorium on the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa campus on Thursday, February 18, 2016, at 6:00 pm. The lecture is free and open to the public (parking on campus is $6).
One of America’s most beloved, best known and most widely respected food writers, Mark Bittman was formerly the weekly opinion columnist and the lead food writer for the Sunday Magazine for the New York Times. He has spent years not only telling readers How to Cook Everything—the name of his best-selling series of cookbooks—but also how to fix our broken food system by cooking and eating more plant-based food and sourcing our meals more sanely and thoughtfully. His core message: food has the power to make or break not only our personal health but also that of the planet. In this lecture, Bittman will share the reasons why a different kind of relationship with food is both necessary and within reach—for Hawai‘i and beyond.
