Welcome to Chews Wisely with Caroline Nelson, where we deconstruct food & sustainability topics with nuance and primary sources. Conversations will range from conscientious omnivory, supply chains, and regenerative agriculture, to the latest food studies, "Big Ag," and more. At Chews Wisely, we’ll go beneath the headlines and hot takes. We believe that real climate solutions are nuanced, that facts are friendly, and that there are many right ways to eat and be sustainable. Keep the conversation going at @chewswiselypodcast on Instagram!

Is Organic Really Better? with Robert Paarlberg
This episode with Dr. Robert Paarlberg mythbusts from start to finish. Everything you think you know about the dirty dozen, food subsidies, the cost of whole food vs processed…just set it to the side because he is here with the data and the nuance that we need to dig deeper. You will especially love his nuance about modern precision agriculture and how we need to stop conflating Big Food with Big Ag. You can break out of your food echo chamber with his latest book, Resetting the Table.

Decolonizing Food with Mariah Gladstone
Mariah Gladstone (Blackfeet, Cherokee) is a botanist, a chef, and an advocate for healthy eating and indigenous foods. She joins us today for a conversation about the invisible foods all around us, what it means to re-indigenize our diets, and how food was used as a tool of colonization. We also talk about food sovereignty, the limits of the term ‘food desert,’ and the Irish Potato Famine that wasn’t.

Everything You've Been Told About Nutrition Is Wrong with Lily Nichols
Lily Nichols, RDN, joins us today to turn everything we thought we knew about gestational diabetes (and nutrition in general) upside down.
