Concluding his Twitter thread, the famous chef rallied people to make their voices be heard and encourage their representatives to take action and responsibility:
“Call your elected officials & ask what they are doing to make food part of the solution. Ask what specific legislation they are supporting to increase #SNAP, empower food banks & non profits, involve restaurants, and ensure the govt is buying from farms. Accept nothing less.”
Vonna, I thought that looked off. Food banks don’t have multi lane drive ups - they’re just little buildings usually inner city. But it’s true the food banks are inundated with all the people who lost their jobs recently. I’ve seen lines going on for blocks.
If they have a car and money for the gas they surely have the money for 3 potatoes.
Also, it seems they have a lot of free time to stay in line to get free food. Grab a rake or something. Get to work! Grow your own food!
