Send us a textIntroducing a new episode format for season 6: Food for Thought! This one is a foray into Kitchen Witchery, just in time for Halloween. In the Food for Thought series we are talking about whatever we feel like getting into -- it might be a news story, history, trend or science -- always with some connection to food. It's not a deep dive, but just enough for you to sound interesting at your next family dinner. Kitchen witchery (see also kitchen divination) is the practice of fortune telling and spell casting using food, or performed during the act of cooking and baking. Reading tea leaves might be one of the most commonly known practices, but are you familiar with cromniancy, ovamancy, or tyromancy? Come along and learn a little about each of these in this Food for Thought episode. And don't miss the end, when Heather attempts to read Erin's fortune in brie cheese. You read that right. Kitchen witchery is also as simple as cooking with intention. Ever heard of adding love into your dishes? Cooking and baking with gratitude, focus and intention? You may already be practicing kitchen witchery! Learn more about Tyromancy from Jennifer Billock.

Another quarterly conversation on books with Christianity Today's Editorial Director, Ashley Hales, on the subject of resisting the digital era. Watch the full conversation on YouTube What's the role of reading in a screen-saturated, distracted, AI world? Russell is joined once again by Ashley Hales, print editor at Christianity Today, to explore how literature can help us resist the attention-fractured nature of our technological era by offering unique ways to process real life itself, giving us tools to see grace where we least expect it. Russell reflects on Wendell Berry's latest (and perhaps final) Port William novel, Marce Catlett, and what it means to say goodbye to a lifelong literary companion. Ashley shares insights on Jan Karon's return to Mitford, and the two discuss how stories shape our capacity for empathy, memory, and hope. They also highlight nonfiction works like Jonathan Haidt's The Anxious Generation (check out our recent episode with Jon) and David Zahl's The Big Relief, considering how books can guide us through exhaustion, anxiety, and the pressures of modern life. Then, the two share the stack of books they're reading just for fun, and upcoming releases they're looking forward to.You can find all the titles mentioned in the episode below.

Food For Thought from 9-6-25

August 31, 2025 Welcome back to Grifty, the podcast where cult wellness, corporate greed, and authoritarian politics meet at a potluck dinner nobody wanted. Tonight's theme is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again plan, better known as MAHA. The Trump team is branding it as a health revolution. But peel back the organic avocado sticker and it looks more like the same old MAGA project: pretend to fight for wellness while quietly dismantling the science and institutions that actually keep people alive. Let's dig in. ⸻ Segment 1: The Food Fight Nobody Ordered Robert F. Kennedy Jr., serving as Trump's Health Secretary, launched MAHA to target ultra-processed foods, artificial dyes, and chemical additives. Big food corporations such as Kraft Heinz, Mars, and Kellogg have already pledged to remove synthetic dyes by 2027 under mounting pressure (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-robert-kennedy-maha-food-plan)). Supporters frame MAHA as consumer protection. Critics see Kennedy using it to market himself as America's wellness crusader while sidelining medical professionals and spreading distrust in vaccines and science. Questions:     1.    Is this food reform real progress or just wellness-washed authoritarianism     2.    Should we be celebrating slightly cleaner Pop Tarts while the CDC is gutted behind the scenes ⸻ Segment 2: Polls Love Food Reform, Hate Science According to an Axios Ipsos survey, 87 percent of Americans support stronger food safety rules, with bipartisan backing (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Nobody is begging for more Red Dye No. 40. But vaccines remain a dividing line. Gallup found that Republicans are significantly less supportive of childhood vaccinations than Democrats, leaving MAHA as a unifying food crusade that simultaneously deepens America's science divide (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Food For Thought:     1.    Does this prove people only support science when it is about snacks     2.    What does it mean when food safety unites but basic vaccines divide ⸻ Segment 3: GOP Breaks Up With Big Food The Republican Party has suddenly distanced itself from Big Food. Instead of defending corporations, GOP leaders are aligning with suburban parents worried about chemical exposure and warning labels on junk food (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). But corporate donors are not walking away quietly. Agricultural giants like Mountaire and Reyes Holdings are resisting regulation, and their financial influence means the fight is just beginning. Questions:     1.    What happens when Republicans break up with Big Food, and who is their rebound     2.    How long before Fox News says Biden wants to ban Oreos ⸻ Segment 4: MAHA's War on Science The Trump administration is using MAHA to undermine public health. The CDC is being overhauled and senior scientists are resigning in protest of political interference and Kennedy's rejection of mRNA technologies (The Hill (https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/5475599-trump-administration-overhauls-cdc/amp/)). Experts warn this is not temporary. Cutting research programs and pushing conspiracy rhetoric risks decades of progress in medicine and public health Questions:     1.    What does America look like when essential oils replace vaccines     2.    How do we measure the long term cost of this brain drain from the CDC ⸻ Segment 5: Killing Cancer Research While Posing As Wellness Saviors While Trump and Kennedy promote MAHA as a children's health movement, they are simultaneously dismantling federal programs designed to find cures for cancer, Alzheimer's, and ALS (House Appropriations Committee (https://democrats-appropriations.house.gov/news/press-releases/trump-team-dismantles-efforts-find-cure-cancer-and-other-deadly-disorders-and)). The cruelty is in the timing. The New York Times reported promising breakthroughs from a new pediatric brain cancer trial group just this week (New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/well/pediatric-brain-cancer-trial-group.html)). While researchers bring hope to families, Washington is choking off the funding that sustains them. Questions:     1.    How do you square calling yourself pro child health while cutting cancer research     2.    Is this just political theater that uses kids as props ⸻ Segment 6: MAHA 2026 Political Weaponized Wellness Kennedy and Trump are positioning MAHA as a key wedge issue for the 2026 midterms. The strategy is to woo suburban women, independents, and younger voters with promises of food safety and wellness transparency (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/24/rfk-jr-maha-strategy-2026-midterms)). The contradiction is glaring. They say they care about your family's health, yet they are dismantling the very systems that could save your family from disease. It is not Make America Healthy Again. It is Make America Hypocritical Always. Questions:     1.    Is this wellness movement just MAGA wrapped in Whole30 branding     2.    How do Democrats fight back against a political cleanse disguised as health reform ⸻ OUTRO That is MAHA in all its kale washed glory. A movement pretending to save you from Lucky Charms while cutting off cancer research and gutting public health. This is violence with branding. Trump and Kennedy are not protecting families, they are using wellness as a mask for authoritarian power. Kendrick Lamar. Please take us out.

Food For Thought from 8-30-35

In the conclusion of our four-part journey through "Ponder on This," we tackle perhaps the most challenging territory yet: what it actually means to live as conscious agents in an evolving world. The conversation opens with a powerful reminder that we're living in "the age of the revelation of the mysteries" - not through more books being published, but through those moments when ancient wisdom suddenly clicks and becomes lived experience rather than just intellectual understanding. Central to this final exploration is the counterintuitive teaching that forms - including our bodies, emotions, and even our cherished beliefs - are temporary vehicles, not permanent identities. The discussion moves through some of the most challenging concepts in spiritual philosophy: that power used selfishly destroys its user, that every step forward in evolution comes through letting go of what we've held dear, and that "accidents" often result from collective explosions of force created by hatred and unkind thoughts. These aren't abstract concepts but practical principles that show up in everything from our resistance to aging to our attachment to outdated beliefs. Perhaps most practically, the conversation explores the difference between being a spiritual "neophyte" who constantly asks "tell me, tell me" and a mature practitioner who simply says "aid the work, forget yourself." This isn't about spiritual bypassing but about understanding that we belong to the world, not just to our immediate circle. The discussion examines the delicate balance between caring for loved ones and making decisions from the deepest place possible, even when others disapprove - recognizing that "the reactions of others are not your responsibility." The episode concludes with some of the most challenging wisdom about becoming "a clear, unobstructed channel" - cultivating the attitude of non-reactivity while remaining fully engaged with life. The beautiful metaphor of finding peace at the center of a tornado captures what spiritual maturity actually looks like: not withdrawal from chaos, but standing so rooted in purpose that external storms can't shake your fundamental stability. It's a conversation that challenges every comfortable assumption while offering practical guidance for those ready to step into their role as conscious co-creators in this massive evolutionary moment.

With 2025 more than halfway over, and 2026 looming large on the horizon, Sally Lyons Wyatt, global executive vice president and chief advisor in consumer goods and foodservice insights for Circana, joins the Food For Thought podcast to offer an update on the trends driving consumer choice as summer turns to fall. Where do healthy food choices fit in? How are the prices of food and beverage products changing the ways consumers are shopping today? What impacts have e-commerce had on the marketplace? And what should processors prepare for in the New Year, once the calendar changes to 2026?

In the third installment of our exploration through "Ponder on This," we dive into some of the most challenging and counterintuitive wisdom from the ancient teachings. The conversation begins with a fascinating look at how these timeless teachings have been safeguarded and disseminated throughout history - not as dogma to be blindly followed, but as spiritual nourishment placed "at the crossroads" for those ready to receive it. This episode tackles one of the most difficult concepts for modern minds to grasp: the relationship between holding on and letting go. The discussion explores the paradox that "by holding, man loses; by relinquishing, he gains" - a principle that runs counter to everything our material culture teaches us about success and security. Rather than philosophical abstraction, this becomes intensely practical when applied to everything from relationships to career ambitions to our deepest attachments. Central to the conversation is the recognition that we are not our vehicles - not our physical bodies, emotions, or even our thoughts - but rather the divine dweller within them. This shift in identity isn't about rejecting the material world, but about understanding our true relationship to it. The episode explores how this recognition changes everything: how we treat others, how we navigate challenges, and how we participate in the ongoing evolution of consciousness on Earth. Perhaps most intriguingly, the discussion touches on the emergence of what the teachings call "a new species of human being" - individuals incarnating with upgraded circuitry, capable of running apps that previous generations couldn't access. This isn't science fiction, but rather the natural progression of consciousness evolution, where higher awareness creates corresponding forms of higher expression. The conversation examines our role in creating containers for this new consciousness while continuing our own journey of refinement and growth. The episode concludes with powerful insights about the delicate balance between compassion and enabling, between holding space for others' growth and rescuing them from necessary lessons. It's a conversation that challenges comfortable assumptions while offering practical wisdom for navigating the complexities of conscious living in an evolving world.

In this continuation of our exploration through "Ponder on This," we dive deeper into some of the most challenging and relevant teachings for our current moment. The conversation opens with a powerful reminder that these ancient wisdom teachings come with no demand for blind acceptance - they're meant to be tested through practice and personal discovery, not adopted as dogma. The episode tackles one of the most provocative statements in the collection: "The world problem is essentially a religious problem." Rather than dismissing this as controversial, the discussion unpacks how religious thinking - the tendency to turn beliefs into rigid dogmas - has infiltrated every area of human discourse, from politics to personal relationships. This isn't an attack on faith traditions, but an examination of how the mind's tendency to crystallize ideas into unchangeable truths creates the very conflicts we see playing out globally. Central to the conversation is the fundamental principle that "energy follows thought" - and the recognition that millions more people are now thinking and focusing their mental energy than ever before in human history. This creates both unprecedented opportunity and responsibility. Every thought we think, every mental pattern we reinforce, contributes to the collective consciousness that shapes our shared reality. The episode explores how this understanding transforms daily life from passive existence to active participation in creating the future. Perhaps most practically, the discussion reveals how we can move from having rigid "points of view" to developing flexible "viewing points" - the difference between defending a fixed position and sampling multiple perspectives to gain holistic understanding. This shift from separation to synthesis offers a pathway through the polarization that characterizes our current moment, suggesting that the resolution lies not in one side winning, but in rising to a higher level where apparent opposites can be reconciled and transformed.

Mind Over Matters w/ Dr. Aimee - Food for Thought: When Healthy Eating Helps 08.03.25 by WCPT 820 Weekend

This month, we're taking a closer look at what's on your dinner plate. From brightly colored cereals to shelf-stable snacks, food dyes, preservatives, and ultra-processed foods are found everywhere. But are they safe? Are they necessary—or could they actually be harmful? In this episode, we speak with leading experts in food science and public health to separate fact from fear. What does the evidence really say about these controversial ingredients? Are recent legislative bans rooted in science, or are other factors at play? Join us as we unpack the science, the politics, and the public perception behind what we eat. Our guests: Lisa Lefferts is an environmental health consultant and former senior scientist at the Center in the Public Interest. She is the primary author of the successful petition to ban Red No. 30 and also served on the FDA's Food Advisory Committee when it considered synthetic food dyes in 2011. Marion Nestle is an American molecular biologist, nutritionist, and public health advocate. She is the Paulette Goddard Professor of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health emerita at New York University.
