Barbara Kingsolver and the "Ethics of Eating"

From Speaking of Faith (see original link at http://speakingoffaith.publicradio.org/programs/ethicsofeating/index.shtml )

"Barbara Kingsolver describes an adventure her family undertook to spend one year eating primarily what they could grow or raise themselves. As a citizen and mother more than an expert, she turned her life towards questions many of us are asking. Food, she says, is a 'rare moral arena' in which the ethical choice is often the pleasurable choice."
