A Green Gold Followship: Food As Empowering Entertainment and Connectivity

And by that I mean more than just by watching us all eat at fast food restaurants and get fatter as a result. Food is a critical cultural phenomenon and has been used in many ways to change the core nature of societies of the past. And if we are going to get a handle on some of our collective abuses, this may well be a good place to get started.


My reason for this comment has to do with questions some friends have asked about why I’m working at the moment on a book called Green Gold, which is what I believe to be the first publication on pairing honey and cheese.

As many people know, both honey and cheese have been nature’s earliest of “processed” foods. The bees make the one and humans the other, but both rely on core actions and reactions directly related to interactivity between elements of the physics of life.

Funny, though, putting the two of them together has been relatively ignored—perhaps because they are so common no one sees much innovation in their potential.

But I disagree. And I believe that their longevity is a heck of a testament to their potential if that sustainability can be linked, electronically and culturally, to a far more empowering future.

Green Gold is about revitalizing our acceptance of core food stuff by using socially responsible followships of opportunity.

Soon I’ll write more about this, but if you get the idea … let me know what you think.
