True Cost Accounting and Food Policy with Paula Daniels Repast

In this episode of Repast, Diana Winters interviews Paula Daniels on Los Angeles food policy, the L.A. Food Policy Council, which she founded, the Center for Good Food Purchasing, and a forthcoming book, True Cost Accounting for Food: Balancing the Scale, that she edited and in which she has a chapter.  Paula and Diana discuss true cost accounting, which Paula distills with the following Oscar Wilde quote:
“What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.  And a sentimentalist . . . is a man who sees an absurd value in everything and doesn’t know the market price of any single thing.”

Paula Daniels is Co-founder and Chair of the Center for Good Food Purchasing, a social enterprise non-profit founded in July of 2015 as a national spin-off from the Los Angeles Food Policy Council, which Paula founded in 2011.
