[il-talk] Audio of Rick Bayless 2009 Food Policy Keynote

[Kelly Pierce]

I just posted an audio recording of rick Bayless’ keynote presentation
from the 2009 Chicago Food Policy Summit to the Internet Archive. The
summit was held on April 8, 2009 at the Chicago Cultural Center. One
of Rick’s passions continues to be the advancement of live, local
living foods.  This talk describes that more than two decade passion.
Rick started his talk with how he became interested in local, living
foods and explains how they offer him the edge in his restaurant and
the lengths he takes to support local farmers and have his assistant
chefs learn about quality farming methods.
