Center for Informed Food Choices is an interesting resource that takes a critical look at the social, environmental and political aspects of the food choices we make.
The organization advocates for a diet based on whole, unprocessed, local, organically grown plant foods and emphasizes the benefits for public health, protecting the environment, and assuring the humane treatment of animals and food industry workers.
CIFC was founded by Michelle Simon, a public health lawyer and nutrition advocate, and author of Appetite for Profit: How the food industry undermines our health and how to fight back
CIFC views food choices as a component of social change that also helps create a more human and sustainable industry. The site offers answers to questions about both the health and political side of the food industry in the United States. Also a bounty of books and websites on the subject and links to the many published articles by Michelle Simon. You can keep up on latest food news by signing up for the CIFC newsletter Informed Eating and also over at the CIFC blog, Appetite for Profit.
