Why are fish unsustainable? Because they're popular. What makes restaurants work? Popular dishes that people come back for.

I don't want food that comes from animals that are caged up and fed antibiotics. I am really suspicious of that kind of production of meat and poultry.

We take food for granted, but it isn't a luxury for many people.

A safe, affordable and plentiful supply of food is a national security issue.

Fish is the only kind of respirating thing that I consume. Everything else I don't want any part of.

In America, we are engaged in constant battle with food.

Seventy percent of the fish we eat is black market, fished in violation of international laws. Our ignorance makes us unwilling partners in crime. Rogue economics is turning the global market into our worst nightmare.

I still haven't quite got used to eating live fish.

If we want to improve American food and make it much cheaper, we should deregulate the food trucks and the other street vendors, provided they meet certain sanitation standards. Many cities have already moved down this path, and people are not keeling over with salmonella.

We're all moving at such a high rate that we have to grab the frozen dinners and the McDonald's. We can't make it a way of life - we have to get back to real, simple, clean good foods. It will save our lives on so many levels; not just spina bifida, but obesity, diabetes, everything. Food is our medicine.
