The Secret Ingredient
Every couple weeks food writers Raj Patel and Tom Philpott, along with producer Rebecca McInroy sit down with a leading figure in the world of food, history and politics. It is through food that we explore the human condition. Asking questions such as, "Why does milk have its own food group?" "Who suffers when I buy organic bananas?" and "How could better food transform our prison system?" If you want to be an ethical food consumer but don't know where to start, this show is for you!

Amazingly insightful and innovative podcast pulling power gender political economy and food all into one. Just a shame there are not more !
Motivational and Fun

The Secret Ingredient is an excellent source of information regarding food politics. As an admirer of Raj Patel’s work, I love listening to these podcasts to hear more of his insights on capitalism, social movements, and food. The topics have gotten a touch out of the realm of food politics but the episodes continue to motivate me and give me ideas on how I can make an impact in my life. I hope to see an episode about food allergies soon or more about current food policies, possibly at the state or local level. I enjoyed the one about Austin so much!
Informative, thoughtful, inspiring

This podcast is a free class about history, politics and society around my favorite subject: food. Thank you for answering the important questions about food, for exposing nutritionism, foodie naïveté, the problems with and solutions to First World Guilt, the facets of food beyond nutrition-- emotions, pleasure, taste, social relations, justice, the need to think intersectionally, transnationally, and locally, to look at the big picture or in Raj's brilliant words to make our modern world strange. Sidney Mintz, wow, what a neat way to start! Amazing commentary, amazing interviewees, funny, intelligent, deep, important, relevant, necessary. Gracias! Thank you for doing this!
